I dont like that windows "phones home" (niether does anyone here)
It doesn't bother me at all. You know why? Because I don't use Windows. You don't have to use it either. If you choose to do so, well, that's your choice. I have no objection to that, but I do get a little sick of people griping about the consequences of their own actions.
Don't worry. The new ones will be made out of cardboard and 100% "recycleable" so you will be able to get an new one every two years while remaining smugly green. Of course, you'll have to get a new one every two years as that's as long as they'll last, but the new ones will be better anyway. They'll have rounder corners. And they'll be even greener.
So get your government to allow it. I have multipair cables (as well as fiber) belonging to two different telecoms crossing my property but the state will allow only one to offer me service. Your cable company has a "franchise" (i.e., monopoly) that they purchased from your local government.
...when the source is unavailable? I can see that these programs might be mentioned as examples of early efforts in a course on UI design, but what else is there to say about them?
The problem with the first strike idea is that Seoul is within easy range of a vast number of dug-in North Korean artillery and rocket emplacements. They might be able to kill hundreds of thousands of people in the time it would take to destroy them. Of course, the US and South Korea will have been mapping and targeting those emplacements for the last fifty years and may have found them all. Maybe.
...sensitive to the "cloud" without encrypting it first?
I'd like to see an encrypted remote file system (or at least a backup system) that transparently uses several of these free "cloud" sevices. I'm not going to write it, though.

Well, they can, but it won't be legally binding until they get the employees and students to agree to assign their copyrights.

And that includes the "privacy issues".

Since Apple is clearly not from this planet and Microsoft inhabits its own universe...

Perhaps not that precisely but what else is that library call (or whatever it is) doing that might be exploitable?

The TV is already there!
Yes. Quit expecting to see real inventions among heavily-marketed consumer products, though.

No, because there really is no such thing as "renewable energy". There also really is no such thing as "sustainability".
The world is a dissipative system. Stasis is impossible. Get used to it.
Nor does it "grant" them. It registers them. They are created by use.
Ok. I was unaware that the source was available.

Or a really, really crude milling machine.

Yes, if it is bad enough. Examples:

Of course no password is secure if you use on more than one site.
And now I see that it is actually a peering dispute. Both the article and the Slashdot summary are, as usual, misleading.
It's Orange's customers. Surely Orange could to block them from Google. That would reduce Orange's traffic, would it not?

Most of that which is illegal is not a crime.
