I must be missing something -- did these people transfer it to an account then go withdraw millions in cash quickly? Or did it take months for it to be discovered?
I can't conceive of any other way that would insulate against a reversal, no matter how many accounts and banks around the world they forwarded it to. Even Swiss banks go along with obvious criminality investigations nowadays.
This will not change until you strike the fear of god into every elected hack in Congress. I don't care if they personally feed Warren Buffet's money to starving babies -- let them know they are gone at the next election.
I'd rather have the $300 one with a $10 keyboard from the drug store if all I'm doing is sitting on the sofa surfing...and a mouse...and a different OS.
A scripting engine with hooks for vital system calls and arbitrary address writes via script parameter could get around compiled code requirements in any case.
This. The FCC could get away with regulating broadcast airways because of their limited spectrum. Many felt this sophistry of an ancient birth, but there you go.
None of this applies anymore. Customers demand more and more bandwidth, and private companies rise to the occasion, grumbling aside.
There is no authority to regulate speech distribution in such an environment.
If you think so, you have allowed your mind to become infected with a meme disease making you a puppet of the power hungry, who gladly burp up reasons to violate constitutional protections. They just need people like you to give them statistical support coveragr.
Of course it is legal. If a politician dies, I can happily claim I'll dance with joy and throw a big fuckin' party. The sentiment is legal, and talking about it is legal.
You can't just rabble-rouse to stir up an attack directly.
Ummmm, actual measurements of wealth and longevity disagreed. This is a meme lodged in your head that is not in accordance with reality. You should go about fixing it.
The business branch. The Department of State works for the arms merchants, and the Commerce Department for the Wall Street commodities markets.
None of whom can be abusive unless buffoons build a government that can be twisted so.
So the problem is the government is too powerful in it's control -- businesses can twist it to hurt competitors or boost themselves.
Hmmmm. If only the founding fathers had designed a government that disallowed this. Oh wait. They did. It was power-hungry politicians at the behest of "the masses" over 2 centuries who whittled it down, in every single case without a constitutional amendment.

Which was, of course, the real goal. Much like seizing the records of companies that sell hydroponics equipment.
So what has this incident taught these instructors, whether they be good or evil?
1. Cash-only and don't use records. 2. If someone says they want to do evil, give them their money back and kick them from the class. Otherwise, don't ask, don't tell.
Can't imagine why when all they do is nerf instead of increasing disfavored classes.
Here is their non-sentient nerf-loop algorithm:
1. Datamine to see most played class/power. 2. Conk it on the head so it sucks more. 3. People start moving to something else in the game. 4. Find what that is and repeat.
Important: Repeat until every player is pissed off and disgusted with your product.
Ironically fear of abusers getting drugs guides things rather than legitimate, safe uses.
There are speed-like weight loss drugs that are safe and effective and used in many oyher countries. They are illegal in the US because addicts might illegally get ahold of them.
That's right. You can't get it because some addict might figure out a black market for it. I..e completely severed from your medical use.
Thanks for deciding that on our behalf.:( That our lives are worth less in legitimate use than an addict's through illegitimate.

They need to hold some back as threat against further encroachments against the principals involved.

What if we re-wrote it in "D"?
"The real problem was due to the exchange rate," he said. "We actually estimated losses at over 25 Bitcoins."
$5000 would be a better starting bounty. What are they expecting, 100,000 bugs?

Tbey already record all internet connections, so to find out who downloads it, just query their databases.
better urn!
Goddard's "turbine driven by rocket blast" is essentially a jet engine, just outboard. What a genius.
Many drive-ins shot themselves in the foot, splitting their giant screens in half with a huge divider to show two different pairs of films.
People go for the novelty of the car and the supergiant screen, not a car with a much smaller screen.

STOP HIM! He didn't get medical approval from the FDA for even testing this!
JAIL NAO! Fines!
Those who want to mod me down, stop proving Ayn Rand's point. Not that anybody listens...or learn from sarcasm.
It doesn't matter which game company he goes to work for -- they're all making MOBAs, DOTAs, or action RPGs (Diablo III clones).
This is at the behest of somebody to use government to twist somebody else to their advantage. End of story.

They're more useful as a scare technique since the common man thinks they work well.
They're also useful, like the "anonymous" tip, to generate further trumped-up reason to investigate someone.

Of course it's only lightly redacted -- they made the whole thing up. Light redaction is how we know they're lying. Give it up feds! >:-(
