"I'm just an ideas guy,don't look to me for a solution. They just SHOULDN'T ALLOW IT, backwards compatibility be damned. At the same time, it's 2018 why haven't we solved the SPAM problem yet???? SOMEBODY GET ON THIS!!!!!!!!!111!!!"
No. The company has a vision and plans for 1,2,5,10,20,50,100 years in the future. The people in office today are continuing the plans of those from before. While the people are not guilty, the company is and so the company is liable for the fine.
I made a big deal about this when Bank of America bought Countrywide, realized what Countrywide was doing and promptly stopped bad loansand worked to resolve the previous bad loans made. The SEC said haha no that's not enough and then fined the shit out of Bank Of America. So not only did BOA get duped into buying a toxic company, when they actually bought the company they fixed the toxicity on their own volition and dime! But wasn't enough, even though the Countrywide execs responsible were no longer working there,BOA was still on the hook for a few hundred million. It took BOA's stock from $20 to $5/share.
So no, precedence says doesn't matter if the people no longer work there, the company itself is still guilty (Yay Citizens United) and must pay the penalty
Nope, just companies who do business in California. In California, you are not required to register a foreign business with the state, but you do not have any rights to use the courts and if a suit is brought against you, the judge can choose not to hear your side of the case. So while the Chinese garbage will likely never be effected, anyone selling that chinese garbage will be and so, by proxy, this law will be implemented as sellers who don't wish to be liable, start selling chinese crap rather than chinese garbage.
You know else does this? Cisco. There is a market for geniune parts, and if the supplier is willing to warranty that problem then you should take it. If you are compromised years down the line, you have recourse. If you are compromised for running a whitebox system or an android.. then you're on your own just as if you bought a SuperMicro instead of geniune HP
My datacenter provides me with decomm'd hardware purchased from Facebook. SuperMicro is one of the vendors. If I knew what to look for, I would. My SuperMicro server has BMC functionality tied to the main nic. It's conceptually possible to have the same vulnerability in my platform
You know, just like healthcare will bankrupt the US, so will spending on "Wars" like the one the DEA is fighting. And just like how certain services will need to be cut in the future, DEA will likely be one of them. Problem is, people are waking up to enslaving Americans (prison) but that is a workforce that would need to be replaced. So the future is upon us sooner then they would have liked.
I would just suggest noncompliance and passive resistance. For instance, it's illegal in almost every state to cover your license plate. Most states do NOT make it illegal to have letters and numbers on the trunk lid around the license plate. If you happen to go off roading, you may get a line or two, or some spots of mud on your license plate.
What I'm trying to say, is that we have solved the captcha spam problem a long time ago. Let's apply it to real world problems now.
The world needs a good open source editor. May as well go full open source and then federate it so you can e.g. sync to the evernote cloud. Free and easy money there...
Bling ding ding. The FBI piracy notice, which is required to be displayed when played from physical media, states you are legally allowed to backup the movie. This law has not changed just because the distribution changed without the notice, and so you are still legally allowed to backup any movie you purchase. Therefore, when you purchase a movie, physical or digital, you should happily backup a copy to your NAS to ensure you can still watch it should your copy become lost or otherwise rendered unplayable.
What constitute a backup has not been argued in court. It is also a slippery slope which is why it likely will not be challenged for the forseeable future. Maybe when blockchain DRM becomes widespread (trust me folks, this is coming. future media is most probably going to become controlled by the content creators or other for-profit entities)
Apple is basically saying you should have backed it up. Apple doesn't want to tell you that, Apple definitely won't tell you how to do that, and just like if your VHS tape ate itself Apple knows your legal methods of recourse would greatly exceed the value of your purchases.
Are you responding to the wrong post? I never said extorting content providers will not prevent the consumer from paying more. In fact I said the exact opposite.
Stop rage replying and actually comprehend what I said...
That's why the rest of your post is bullshit. Someone needs to pay the cost and you don't want to pay it. You are blind that someone is paying for the exponential growth and regardless of who pays for it the costs WILL be passed on to you. Whether it's via consilidated content providers because they go bankrupt, or via ISPs because they are forced via regulation. The consumer has shit to say in this argument and will be spending more money.
This fight is between corporations and only corporations. no matter the outcome, the consumer is paying more in one way or the other. there is a real hidden cost that cannot be ignored anymore due to the sheer explosion of users on the internet. and that is transit costs. with net neutrality, content publishers and distributors get to peer directly with an isp and flood their network with whatever data the content provider wants. ISPs eat the cost here and you, the consumer, pays for it with shitty connection speeds and/or higher service costs.
Without net neutrality, content publishers must pay the transit costs and thus have an incentive to keep spurious traffic low and pass on the costs to the consumer. in the end, we the consumer will pay more. in order to keep tomorrow's prices the same today, that's where traffic shaping and active management comes into play. you are never prevented from going with a non-subsidized provider (e.g. cogent, xo, or running and lighting up your own fiber).. you will just be exposed to the true price of high speed connectivity.
Some racing video games had this feature where when you changed lanes, the car would start to signal in that direction. There is a game on the Google Play store right now that does this.
Or is prior art negated because it is virtual and doesn't send the actual CANBUS command to trigger the turn signal?
I recall plenty of Epic and mIRC scripts that would fetch metadata from links ala slack and hipchat. I remember plenty of eggdrop bots which provided/fortune and/build functions. Nothing new, and is most probably what powers the backend of Slack!
If Comcast is a monopoly in an area and decides to start up a mapping service to compete with Google Maps, and they start prioritizing their own service over Google Maps, or worse, deliberately degrading Google Maps traffic, the people who live in that area and only have Comcast as an option are fucked.
Since we're playing what-if's. If the residents of that area are unhappy with the choice they can petition their local government to step in.
How about we play reality. And reality is that net neutrality was being abused by content providers. It's just as bad if Comcast starts prioritizing their own traffic, but if neutrality rules are in place and comcast forcibly tries to prioritize their traffic what penalties must they pay? None. That is what happened with NetFlix in 2012.
Why is a subscriber's SSN required, period? Okay I can understand to protect against bad apples. But why do you need my SSN for the future when my payment history is all the credit history you need?
Because they are selling your data and your SSN is a great choice for a primary key. This is the user's fault. If you think a $250 deposit costs more than your security is worth, then by all means don't stop giving out your SSN
Senators are on record saying they know TSA is a shame, but they wouldn't want to be around the day an attack happened after they voted to get rid of TSA.
And it's probably the same thing with your job. You don't NEED to security test going from DEV to QA, but the moment there is a hack in QA your name is on the chopping block.

I am fascinated by your delusional world where every ISP serves every geographic location.
