How many websites have you seen that say "Sorry, your Internet Service Provider provides substandard service, please call OTHERPROVIDER at 1-800-XXX-XXXX to upgrade and access our website correctly / EOL"?
===>> I will believe Google is genuinely against NSA's encryption breaking scheme only when Google moves ALL their servers OUTSIDE of the United States of America.
No point of talking about "upping the stakes" when the same old thing - a secret warrant demanding full disclosure - can happen anytime.
Google has seen so very many attacks on its infrastructure that all links are now or will soon be encrypted.
===>> Rumors are that Google is also large enough to distribute secret keys to the end point devices and can even manage building to building and room to room encrypted data links.
I am of the opinion that Google is under pressure from TLA organizations to protect its resources as a mater of national security. i.e. penetration from China, Iran, Korea, Cuba needs to be stopped. The capability to stop industrial and international agents has the side effect of stopping or slowing down US agencies.
Those agencies are well armed with paper and via legal process can get that which is needed.
There is a lesson here. Do not obstruct US national TLAs but protect fully from international and industrial attacks and you will be in as good a legal situation as possible. Secret orders are a tangle. Validating that a secret order is a valid order risks divulging the secret order to the degree that it pays to not act on or acknowledge the order that cannot be verified as it may well be an elaborate phishing attack by a foreign agency with deep pockets. OK that may not be practical but the point is that becoming the target of international agents unfriendly to the US is very possible and astoundingly possible. Physical, technical and social attacks are very possible...
Since I am not an attorney none of what I said can be construed as advice. Do get advice in advance of the need for advice when adversarial stuff is flying hither and yon and clear thinking and communication is impossible.
Step 3: It is easy to start an online retail business and there are no fundamental legal hurdles or entrenchment, so competition comes from the woodwork and swallows your ability to overcharge customers.
Guys, the problems is not a lack of taxes (it rarely is), and the problem is not companies making opportunity out of asymmetrical information in the market which can't be explained to an average judge or stopped, and the problem is not prosecutors that even when winning a record judgement or settlement are still not deterring behavior, and the problem is not bureaucrats who are setting the laws to keep these games going.
The problem is our markets (brokers, agents, order processing and the floor) are set up in a way so that real investors are thrown to the wolves. When someone invents a market set up that is less susceptible to gaming it will be gamed less.
If we get to the point where the NSA/Russians are tapping your computer to get trade orders and sending that information to GS for front running we will know that the system is designed properly.
Sorry to break it to you, but many editors at Slashdot have been replaced with scripts over the years, short scripts. Timothy, on the other hand, is a real human, he works for Microsoft.

Your personal account of being on the receiving end of hatred for the IRS does not necessarily legitimize the IRS

None.
On the other hand, over thousands of people and many years the overall theft adds up to...
A tipping point adoption of the electric car
Organ?
You can collect two years worth of sexts in a week?
The blackmail value against the future leaders of America easily exceeds $3b.
REAL STORY:
That we are still discussing this topic in 2013 is why Apple hasn't released the Apple TV yet.
SUMMARY OF PARENT:
1. End users would rather not spend money on the product
2. End users want the product
I can easily think of ways to make money with these rules. Hint, it's same way Microsoft makes money and the same rules they work under.
Adblock is financially supported by Google.
Odd, I though the cloud was the endgame from their 1984 commercial.
1984 commercial alternate ending -- the cloud

Wow, just looked up Rebecca Black --- don't worry you got me back good
Then perhaps you will enjoy this video I just made regarding Apple, security, and the walled garden. (60 seconds)

tl;dr
>> Cut all regulation altogether, and implement ... regulation?
How about this open issue: The official healthcare.gov phone number spells FUCK-YO when you dial it.
Trust me, the banks are just as bad.
Of course, the suckers are the ones who watch TV, get scared, and trade constantly based on information they aren't sure about.

>> From my perspective as a Google employee, I also see no evidence from the inside of any partnership with the NSA.
And do you have an SCI clearance? If not, do you ever ask questions at the office and get the answer "I'm not at liberty to say"?
... and with Apple's iPhone announcement today, we will show you how 2014 is not going to be like 1984.

It's easy.
Design systems that run without having constant maintenance tasks.
And then when you do need root, have someone watch over their shoulder.
