YOU don't have anything to actively search there in the first place.
A couple of weeks ago, to ensure compliance with US law as we roll out improvements to SourceForge.net, we began programmatically blocking access to the site for users in certain countries against which the US government imposes sanctions.
`Sanctions` are acts of WAR
So private corporations assist in illegal types of warfare by the US goverment which is legally owned by the deepest pockets.
How can SourceForge allow project admins to circumvent this law that provides for teh safety of all scared american peeple?
I mean, first it is law and now the project admin, who can be non-american -terrorist?- , can decide?
Of course the USA respectfully and nicely accepts this disappointing yet semi-democratic decision.
NOT!
They threaten Europe with not sharing terrorism related information.
So we expect a false flag soon?
Who has given the EU the right to represent me (EU citizen) with these criminal talks that will rob me from even more freedoms and rights?
Who in the EU decided the course? What was my part in deciding/controlling?
In other words: where is the democracy?
So now we have deadly innovations lobbied to death worldwide (even the EU simplifies the number of desks to visit for Mansanto), news about shortcomings is of course supporessed or denied and the public is kept in the unknown, all in the name of corporatism which originated in the USA, land of the not so free....
All of this mandatory security theatre(*) is just because of the stupid international politics of the USA (no longer the home of the free) in the first place. This means that we ALL get to suffer from their stupid pollitical choices (they learned nothing from middle and south american experiments, Vietnam?).
(*) Yes, who you are does not matter for a safe plane flight. It all (!) depends on what stuff the security measures don't detect and what thus is taken onboard.
Yes, Osama, if he were alive, could easily be admitted to a plane. Just without bombs, weapons, etc.
So this name-list weirdness, this privacy invasion, leads to absolutely nothing.
'If you are doing business here, you should follow the local law, the sentiments of the people, the culture of the country.
Of course they do not want to be educated about slightly more modern values and norms w.r.t. freedoms and rights.
So why is it that these USA based companies, VERY much unlike their military actions, appear to do not so much about this freedoms situation when it is internet-related?
There's stupid comments about local laws.
It appears that people do not discern any difference between laws and ethics.
Not everything that is forbidden by law is unethical.
Not all that is bad is forbidden by law.
And companies without the least of a spine are dime-a-dozen.
What is apple doing to explain the chinese that this is 'not so nice'?
Same for other situations that are in the way of truly free markets? (yes, markets aren't free, even yours isn't free)
Will we get another Slashdot newsflash when they fix the copy/cut situation?
Please see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47948 for this age old 'unimportant' bug.
Even the basics take ages for them.
All of this the evil influence of the USA **AA lobbyists over the rest of the world.
Although the US empire is faltering they still continue their evil agenda.
We all know what the DMCA has brought to the world. Now it will be de-facto the same for the rest of the world outside the USA.
Of course this is not done through a democratic process....
Do you mean that those recordspending whatever moments mean that the public knows that the system is gonna crash? That they spend it before it is too late?
But isn't it UNamerican to circumvent the intentions of Apple Inc and do whatever you want for yourself?
I mean, by exactly doing this you are UNfriending yourself. Apple Inc will lose dollar$ because of this and will have less influence to set the desired norms, values, regulations, etc.
All of this might even be illegal. Yes, you are going against the will of the owner of the platform and you might be breaking certain laws while going this route.
Has this world become an area with revolutionarists?
Who has any respect for the Nobel prize thing after mr Obama got the prize?
Anybody who takes a ral look at what he is doing sees that there is no real change, no real peace, and even more war stuff. (any columbian bases, anyone? iran? iraq? afghanistan? support for israel?)
Not lessening his number of bases, war spending he makes a bad peace impression.
Would http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47948 be the reason why?
A very basic feature of even MS Windows will not be implemented for ages.
Other stuff appears to be more important than a decent desktop.
Slashdot Mirror
Good luck with that...

Is this a USA-only coupon thing?
I do not recall seeing this type of business over here in Europe.
Finally the EU does something _for_ the people!
(aside from money flowing to everywhere except to my country)

We have a limit, apparently, but of course we do not act in case we go over it.
Is the limit still a limit in that case?

we're all terrorists now
as if we don't let the plane explode earlier than an hour before landing
pfff
it is ALL still security theatre and does NOTHING about the terrorists, if any.
http://www.nu.nl/binnenland/2151360/terreurverdachte-onderging-controle.html for some background.
Obviously the Dutch are not to blame. We did all the USAsians asked for....
And yet they demand more.
See what suffering that will cause to innocent passengers.
For a terrorism-centred country like the USA this is a very incomplete report.
No details about what was on fire or the person that attacked the supposed terrorist. See http://www.telegraaf.nl/binnenland/5656080/__Hollandse_Jasper_pakte_terrorist__.html?p=1,1 for the raw story.
One wonders: what security-theatre will be the new norm after this incident?

Are you implying the network is analog to the core? Is this because of the funding of the `foreign policies`?
Dream on. Those places will be few. They will be pressured into complying. WTO? Worldbank? UN? Who controls those?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYLmLW4k4aI yes, all that. and then our magical input with just a few parts of a million.

Linus should refuse the prize.
