Not native, but you can emulate. While not a cure-all today as ARM becomes more and more powerful the interpretation of instruction sets becomes less of a speed issue.
If the main part of the market doesn't care, then that is the direction they will go. They are in the business to make money, not cater to a tiny group of people.
Twitter can of course take it down on their own as they dont have to adhere to the US Constitution in this matter, but our government should NOT be involved in requesting that a individuals ( or group ) speech to be curtailed.
Yes, i realize they are not Americans and may not have that right in their home country, but an American governmental agency asking bothers me greatly.
Ya damn them for worrying about the bottom line of their company. Contrary to your desire, they are not in the business to be philanthropists. If costs go up due to government regulations it will have ramifications in business. Pretty simple math here.
That will be forthcoming. Far easier to hold them liable and force them to control/monitor traffic than the way it was being done ( 3rd party tracking and filing legal notices )
Well, to be honest it sort of makes sense. Its your line, your account, and you chose to do it.
Not much different than loaning your car to someone you *know* will be transporting drugs or robbing a bank.
Running an exit node ( when did RetroShare get this anyway? ) is like a waving a huge red flag, 'hey, look at me', and everyone really should stick to remaining internal to the network, so its 'safe'.
Is it illegal to offer a way to ignore content you dont want? It may piss off the advertisers, but unless they are subsidizing your hardware/software/connection and its part of your TOS, i dont see a legal leg to stand on
The consumers of course, with higher costs of goods. And workers, with their jobs, who while can perform the job perfectly fine are unfairly black listed due some silly test that doesn't relate to job performance at all..
if you think 'the insurance company' ( or some other arbitrary disliked group of the day ) is going to pay, you have a lot to learn about economics.
It's the tidbits like this that make me feel warm and fuzzy about copyright and police:
Its the job of the poilce to enforce the laws, nothing more, nothing less. In this case they were just doing the job that your ( if you are local to the story anyway ) tax dollars are paying them to do. A policy of 'selective enforcement of law' is NOT a path you want to go down.
Now I dont like the situation anymore than the next guy, but blame the people responsible, the legislature, and not the cop on the street.
It may be obvious to you and i, but we dont matter. Who does matter is who reviews the patent application. If it doesn't appear obvious to him and its awarded, we can look forward to decades of take down notices ( mostly notices as what small project can afford to fight? )

Piratebay.

If they want free support and get irate when its explained to that that its how you may your money, they can take a flying leap.
No great loss if they go elsewhere for their handouts. I'm sure your paying customers will still be around.
Yes, he should have. Just as much right as we had to say he was an evil dictator.
Is free-speech the last i heard.

Will pretty much end the company.
Most of what you were taught as a kid was a lie; The law isn't here to protect you, but control you.
Well, some of us were taught that as kids.. Not all of us grew up in oppressive families.

In a large company today, its not a case of 'some people feel', but instead is a legitimate problem that does cost time, resources, and productivity.
The worst part is often times even the IT dept cant manage to properly reply to group emails, its not just the end users.
That stuff is banned where i work, but people still do it since there are no repercussions, yet.
I have been advocating this for years. Don't remove it as it is needed in some cases, just make people think before they use it.
I would prefer that people could properly use email, but that isn't going to happen so its 'babysitting' time.
And depending on the company, i make them aware that i will be giving my money to their competition.
I have done the same with sites that *require* flash to function at all.
Google is a company and publishing information.. He isn't ( i assume )
Should give it some time before one calls it quits.
On what grounds?

No, its Altavista's fault.

Again? when did it really end?
Where will it end? ( most likely when you cant even pee without being sued and all commerce comes to a grinding halt. )
The soon to be over used buzz word of 2013..
Just like with other things, they use 'bad terms' to represent 'legal actions' to manipulate the public's opinion against the companies/people.
And since people in general are stupid, it tends to work every time.
