  1. Potential for abuse on American Movie Execs Could Face Aussie Jails For Hacking · · Score: 1

    We all know that these execs aren't to be trusted in the first place, but to give them power to put files on "cracked" computers then scream for litigation is insane. ...but im sure they can have anyone silently killed anyways they dont need a silly copyright law to mess with people.

  2. Re:Keyed off ZIP code on Your Fingerprint Buys Groceries in Seattle · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I hope its a PIN, because people in a common zip code tend to use a grocery store(I would think). West Seattle is off the beaten path, likely only West Seattleites will use it, making all zip codes 98116 (or 98106 if they want to drive a few miles). But entering a PIN then placing the finger down sounds fairly safe.

  3. Re:I live right by this Thriftway on Your Fingerprint Buys Groceries in Seattle · · Score: 1

    If you haven't guessed, it's a very nice grocery store with a market feel. Great deli.

  4. I live right by this Thriftway on Your Fingerprint Buys Groceries in Seattle · · Score: 1

    I go in there all the time, I will check it out, but I doubt I will use the system (The last post mentioning the odds scared me :)). With another form of ID like a card or PIN it could be secure enough and convienient if quick, only now are the credit card/debit reader systems getting fast enough to be useful (ever notice that every store has a different reader? - and that clerks always get huffy and hit keys for you if you have to look at it for a second). I'll wander down there, grab a brochure or something and report. sometime today
