I would look at the technologies similar to the one wich is used by Freenet: distributed cryptographicaly anonymised file storage and access systems.
Who will you sue if your stolen file is nowhere and everywhere (on 100.000 computers) at the same time? And there is no way to determine on which computer connected into this file sharing system this file is stored and on which not.
Well that's really scary for the Media industry if there is even no physical posibility to identify the person they want to take to court. Who would they try to prosecute if the DVD decryption code would be let into wild through such a system, and how to censor this code later on?
So no wonder there is a initiative to create such legislation.
A prominent russian mathematician A.T. Fomenko from Moscow State University has already proposed and applied the method in question. His goal was to reveal hidden relations in the global history. The "citation index" of certain words would signal some important event like a battle or a outstanding personality. By connecting this words and the dates assigned to them in the ancient texts one could find new relations or use it as experimental evidence for historical theories.

Second, if he was ever head of MS security, he is used to dealing with extremely difficult situations and has handled his share of disasters. We all know how, don't we?... Probably an ideal background overall. OK, but where does he want to go today? Can you teach an old dog new tricks?
Here is an example of the new technology Ralsky have been talking about.
Might be a good starting point to think about instaling Linux on my lap-top. Wich was not long before considered as a lot of pain because of proprietary hardware inside (Gericom). But now I'll think again.
>Too bad we aren't learning from the British and Soviet mistakes
You do:

And you do close this information from the others when the war is declared. Logical, isn't it?
That's why this site is available only in the Google's cache now.
And may be Afganistan is only a fake target now, to start with smth else unexpectedly?

There are couple books of him even in English that are a great fun to read even for non-scientists. Check an abriged version of one of them.

So... Microsoft is inconsistent in being evil... i.e. wrong.
I'd give my $10 for this.
Was looking for qute a long time for smth. like this in the thread.
Exactly!
