If you want to read what I'm writing in my encrypted emails, go tell a judge and get a warrant. Easy enough. After all, I'm a foreign national known to have subversive opinions. Install a keyboard logger to uncover my thought crimes. For that's what conspiracies are. Up until the hijackers walked into the airport with their weapons, no real crime had been committed.
God forbid that we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion (Jefferson).
No, I mean their next-door neighbours, who aren't out in the streets, but who will die just the same when a made-in-the-good-ole-USA cruise missile comes through their window.
Just because someone approves of this does not make them responsible. There are many reasons for people around the world to wish harm to the US. Most of them involve the Middle East. If the US government won't even talk about the possibility that Israel is a racist state, how can they be surprised when those affected by racism strike back?

No you haven't. The page you link to is simply a list of IPs (and reverse-DNSed names) that have requested certain pages from your webserver. If you'd read the article, this is a clickless method. It sounds like a lot of OnMouseOver:PhoneHome to me.
I think the Harry Potter stories are good books. They are enjoyable to read, and make you think. My children aren't ready for them yet, being more interested in Thomas the Tank Engine and anything with pictures of animals respectively, but when they are the HP books will be on the shelf for them to discover.
Why is it, that whenever I see a post that is on he border between +1 Funny and -1 Troll, someone who shouldn't be left alone with plastic cutlery has already modded it up as Interesting?
I remember buying (or making my parents buy) whole kits, like a bus or a race car, just for a particular piece. Now it seems the kits are all specialized pieces, and you have to buy the buckets to get a supply of regular blocks.
My son builds trains, cars and aeroplanes out of whatever pieces of Lego or his sister's Duplo/MegaBloks he can get his hands on. I think a large bucket of blocks is in his future, because he keeps running out of pieces to build with, and I don't want the fact that you only get so many 2x4 pieces with the Mickey Mouse house & Garden set to be the limiting factor on his imaginative play.

Sklyarov Indicted

Developing the alternative ebook reader is not a crime in the country in which it was developed. He should be freed because of lack of juristiction.
Trafficking in the reader, is a crime in the US, and the effects are felt in the US (until the govt. firewalls us like China). However, it was Elcomsoft (codefendants) who were doing this, and not Sklyarov.
What Sklyarov is guilty of is the long-abhorred practice of being $NATIONALITY in vicinity of $CRIME. He's going to get nailed to the wall.
This isn't going to take you from city to city. At least not in 30 hops or less. Just like you can't take side streets all the way across the country. At some point you have to get on the [shudder] superhighway.
less.net is registered by ibusinesses.com, but they don't have any DNS entries for it. I say we start up a co-op and sue them for domain squatting. We can pay for hardware with the money we get from them:-)
All the good names are taken: ethernet, undernet, abovenet and freenet. Even overnet has a few takers in various countries.
The question is, can your local wireless co-op become your ISP? Is the latency of hopping across consumer-grade access points all the way downtown where the shared internet connection lives going to suck, or suck really badly. I don't think any co-op will last long if it requires people to share their consumer-priced bandwidth in the face of telco and cableco opposition.

That is great!

What kind of an idiot assumes that cruise missiles are the only solution for any problem?
Republicans.
Right. That worked for the Russians, after all.
To paraphrase Churchill: If you don't jaw-jaw you'll get war-war.
Worse than this.

Read the story. Cheney is in charge now. Perhaps Bush's inarticulacy was caused by the stress of thinking he was President.
And how many civilians are you prepared to murder to carry out this policy?

Mod the parent up!

Yeah, but think how high you could overclock it..
