Given that Android devices are already outselling iOS devices
As a matter of interest, is this worldwide, or in the US only? I'm interested to know if it's the AT&T exclusivity that is driving people to Android, or if they freely choose Android devices on their own accord, in countries where there's a real free market.
Someone's not thinking outside the box. They should have just spun off that part of the company and run it from another country with sensible attitudes towards sex (eg, The Netherlands or Belgium), where the US can't touch them.
It is pointless to replace three or four employees with one employee, because that one employee would need to be paid for 120 or 160 hours of work per week, in order to achieve the same throughput as before. I can't see how that saves money at all.
Seriously, if some dumbarse business won't employ you because they found something on your Facebook page, they would be a god-awful place to work anyway. There will be plenty of better employers out there who will employ you no matter what's on your page, and they will be far more pleasant places to work.
wtf? How does free software equate to software anarchy? How does free software equate to sex free computing? How does software anarchy equate to sex free computing?
It's/anything/ on iPhone. Someday, there will be another widely used application that people want on an iPhone, that Apple won't approve. This won't be resolved until Apple pulls their collective heads out of their arses and gets rid of the insane requirement that they approve all applications on these platforms.
For me, this application would be Ogg Vorbis and Theora support, hence I won't be buying an iPhone or iPad any time soon.

"Who needs a trial?". Oh dear, the terrorists really did win.
Ah, I see you're from the same line of communists who like to incarcerate people without trial.
If you don't believe that there are also despots in the US, then I have a nice bridge to sell you. Cleaning up a mess starts at home.
Assange isn't committing treason against the US, dumbarse, because he's not a US citizen. Learn to think.

I wonder if he's going to sue Wikipedia too; he's now immortalized on the "Streisand Effect" page.
I've been using Linux as my only desktop OS for fourteen years. It works fine for me. It's not even remotely dead.
...that the average North Korean even has a computer to access the internet with.

All it will take is one alien visitation to put an end to that.
Open source, eh? Cool. I'll just modify the source and make sure that it always reports that nothing bad is happening.
...then presumably, it will be legal for me to download their clients' work, as I will already be paying for it.
Better still: just start a campaign to get anyone who calls these call-centers to blaspheme down the phone every time they call.
It won't be long before all the jobs are shipped back to more tolerant people.
If they've got any brains at all, they'll just go home at 40 hours. That's what I do.

I'm a geek, getting that would be the least of my problems.
Whoosh.
Well, I certainly didn't expect to see that, here.

Umm, what if you're in China and you're browsing pro-democracy websites?

Bullshit. Most of them wouldn't even know about this. Nice try, Apple fanboi.

What else are we meant to do with our lives? Just eat, work and sleep?
