No.
Parents are going to have to eventually make a decision.
If it was done on the phone ...

If it was done over the phone ...
No... the loss is similar to stolen gold.
TL;DR right after I thought, "How much, precisely, does binary weigh?"
A lot of binary goods have value despite being purely nothing more than a number.
e-books.
e-books would have been a better analogy that failed.
The first thing the guy has to do is show damages.
That requires discoverable evidence.
Also, he has to show violation of contract on the part of the service provider.
Time will tell.
The money had value at the time it was stolen ...
"Money," in your context is fiat
In the pet rock analogy, the money had value at the time it was stolen ..
The market value of the pet rocks was imaginary and emotions.
You, know, like binary unicorns and stuff.
The pin is set at the carrier and they have precisely the same technology as you and I do, including a Delete key.
A pin on the PHONE is not of any help. He didn't lose custody his hardware.
The promise to pin-protect better be discoverable, otherwise it didn't happen.
The damages are the market value ...
The play money has no value at all.
It's like saying someone stole his pet rocks.
... miniaturization.
... in the Terminals.
I'm 95% in agreement.
Where I depart is involving Cloudflare at all, at any time unless Cloudflare is compensated by IP owners and backed by court decisions to proceed.
The real culprit is at the OTHER end of the connection -- where the pirated stuff is stored by crooks. THAT'S where the focus should be.
Blah, blah, blah.
Look, you and I agree that some asshats are breaking copyright laws.
The owners of the IP have a gripe with the perps and no one else.
This "get the carriers to be the police" is bullshit.
The way that would work is for the carriers to charge the IP owners for doing the dirty work.
In any case, you and I both know damned well it's "whack-a-mole."
As soon as IP is digitized, it's effectively in the public domain.
So YouPorn cause cancer ...
... doing with cell phones?
... the offender.
The reasoning here would support my electric company's termination of service because I download copyrighted material.
Why the hell is this modded at "0?"
It should be, "(Score:+Elebenty,Fuddyy).
Has anyone patted you down for drugs lately?
It isn't a matter of stupidity.
It's more of an issue of primitive technology.
Later, in this man's US Navy, I worked in a clean room where we soldered/desoldered hybrid integrated circuits (ca. 1970) and examiners were hard pressed to determine a before and after.
I don't pay attention to name.
That's /.'s fucking wheelhouse.
I don't give a flying rat's ass about gender or country or AC anything else.
I read the goddam comment.
... stance.
While governments are forbidden to spy on its own citizens, nothing says they can't simply buy surveillance shit from private spying corporations.
Think of the children.
Why is this modded down?
It is a very good answer.
Cold solder joints have been a bitch for those of us who have rolled our own circuits since Moby Dick was a minnow.
Also, we used to troubleshoot heat problems in all kinds of electronics by cracking the hood and spraying isolated chips with cold air.
... have not achieved an education level sufficient to know what AI is.
TFS, TFA don't say.
Just don't use Bitcoin (BTC).
I read where they are embedding microphones and video cameras into each coin and stuff.
It makes sense, you know.
Bitcoin is digital, audio and video is digital, computers and even eBay is digital, so yeah.
