They seem to be use in a few locations in Puerto Rico, and were interfered with by non-wifi point-to-point devices. An image of a screen showed fixed straight lines a few pixels wide. Teapot, meet tempest.
To be fair, one should arguably reserve that channel in countries that use these oddly low-frequency radars...
They were from the same year, and I think the all writs act was older. The bill of rights arguable overrides it in any case, just like mu Canadian charter of right overrides both newer and older legislation...
It's a non-tariff barrier to trade: between the states of the US or EU, or between the provinces of Canada, a blocking scheme is illegal. Between countries, it is legal because the countries want to protect their businesses from foreign competition and encourage, for example, local printing of physical books.
IMHO, it should not be legal for non-physical goods. Someone in Australia or Canada shouldn't have to pay a higher price that someone in the US to stream a movie, just the exchange on the money...
I was thinking of retiring there when I got to about 110 (:-))
Instead I was asked to do a gig replacing for my old director until we chose a permanent replacement, and then went back to a true engineering gig at a very "young" start-up.
In my opinion, old and smart still works. Everything I learned in Simula and Concurrent Pascal applies to Java and the modern scripting languages. I had expected my new, younger, colleagues to be rocket scientists on objects. Nope: the smart folks are smart (Hi, Muhammad!), and the ordinary folks are ordinary.
Some places thing young is good, but old guys do well. Some places think old guys are good, but young guy do well (Hi, Sesh!)
Keep learning and have fun. You'll die before you run out of fun things to learn.

Actually I used to be able to forge things well. too, but we're unusual. "Herd immunity" keeps the banks in the US from making the claim they did in Britain, that anything with a pin was hack-proof and fraud or theft was necessarily the customer's fault.
It's actually worse now: for about $20 you can get a stick-on chip to make your own cracker-card.
Chip-and-sign in the US is no more secure, but it has the brilliant advantage of allowing the victims to prove it wasn't their signature and recover from the banks.
I resigned from for cause when my management didn't back me up on authenticating a security officer before I discussed our site security with him. The parent company's switchboard, when I called them long-distance on my own nickel, confirmed they had no such person.
Canada used to have a long-standing fund to pay lawyers for people who differed with the government on matters of public policy.
It was defunded during a previous government, but seem to be coming back.
You just described how the statute of fraud works, even in the US: Burroughs got sued for shipping machines so unspeakably bad they were "not suitable for the purpose sold", and lost. See http://www.nytimes.com/1981/10...
The good part is this is a proposed rule-making, and the FCC doesn't actually want to mess up Vint Cerf and Dave Taht. IMHO it was a bug in their spec (;-))
The bad part is that several vendors think that locking down the entire router is a good and cheap idea, and that no-one like the FTC will object.
The good part is that the FTC does exist, after all, and there is now a growing community of people with locked-down routers that contain a compliance-critical bug, on that takes the router right out of compliance (the glibc dns bug, if it's as bad as we fear).
Those vendors will now need to fix every locked-down device they've shipped with the bug, for free, or look forward to both a class-action suit and petitions to the FTC to ban them from the US.

If one can load apps on a nominally un-jail-broken apple, how about one to load (and remove) apps from an android? My phone is full of crapware. amd I want a wifi tracking app that wants a jailbroken phone (:-))

Not afraid enough of robotii, IMHO.

To summarize, the company needs informed consent. A customer's saying "no" is a binding denial of consent.
Vint Cerf and Dave Taht?

Their defense is to plead "necessity" when they finally get to see a judge.

The signatures are wonderful, as they allow the human to prove that they didn't buy the goods in case of fraud.

For cause is vote of no confidence in your management.

One wonders if SFC sees a risk to the community from Oracle acting against Canonical. If not, they may inadvertently be playing dog-in-the-manger.
Alas, they already are. Idiots!

IMHO, those vendors will get FTC bans and class-actions suits. Please! Starting tomorrow, by preference (;-))
Fusable links would be excellent, but the usual hack is to lock down everything in software, which IMHO is suicidally shortsighted.
