Most likely they were typing the information in. Not copy/paste. This would serve the same purpose as writing, if diligent.
I'm sure however, that at the same time they were screwing around with the computer. No different than writing your notes and at the same time talking to your girlfriend sitting across you, before cellphones and computers.
Sure, FreeNet, which would be the more secure option we have currently, doesn't have any outside gateways, but if you are concerned about security, you don't want one anyway.
Network coverage is good enough for most of us where we don't need *everything* we own locally. Sure. not 100% of all users, but the majority.
Sure a couple of GB for when you are in a pinch and want to have something to listen to, or don't want to risk a presentation online, but really we don't need to store everything, all the time.
Problem is most people that are stuck using windows will just have to pony up ( and pass along the increase to their customers ) as they are locked in.
Lots of apps *require* some sort of windows products and its normally not trivial to change, at least in the real world. I do realize that your mothers basement its not hard to just say 'change to xyz'.

Need to not get the 2 confused.
Why is Cisco having issues? Competition, or simple market saturation?
Ok. Business as usual.
Its people committing a crime. Its not legal to interfere with communications. FCC takes a dim view on it.
But will suffer greatly and slowly fade back into a tiny market.
Or just send it off into deep space, with the promise we will send the other 2 ark-ships right behind them.
Every country is doing this. But i guess USA bashing is 'in' this year.
Or if you just want to stop paying the yearly shakedown fee...
Just use mail on FreeNet,

By court order your mail can be opened and read. It can also be read after opening when you get hit with a search warrant.
Unless its public it shouldn't be legally permissible.
And no employer should have access to your back records. Ever.
Giving local companies preferential treatment isn't a bad thing.
They are evil too, even more so.. that should get about 3.9 million of their 4mil customers pissed off.
Information wants to be free, but there are those who want to keep it bottled up.
An those that do want to keep it bottled, have more money than you an I.
All governments monitor their citizens.
Don't worry, once you get out of school and get a real job you will understand how things actually work in the world.

For what is essentially a network terminal, we really don't need huge amounts of storage.
Even tho you were being sarcastic.
But be sure we keep the important stuff, like the president's constant vacations.

Disposable income is less, so 'luxuries' get pushed down the list.
Pretty simple.
Nothing wrong with women of course, but the doctor is male. End of story. Why do we have to extend this PC crap to everything in life?
Poorly scanned ones... some downright painful to try to read... Makes me regret getting rid of my collection before i scanned them myself.
"if you want something done right... "
That is when i dropped my subscription. I had one from the first day, until they ruined it.
Sort of like when BYTE went south and became 'yet another PC review magazine'.. Was such a loss to the communities that built them.
