Who else here feels the world would be a lot safer if China went ahead & absorbed North Korea into it's country. China already has nukes and is far more stable. I don't think anyone in the world would care one wit if China swallowed N. Korea whole.
Let's see... * The asshat in the office who never does anything and sucks is less likely to come out with the co-workers. * The ones who go out probably enjoy the company & respect their coworkers. * The completion of a long hard won project, or extra hours slogging away at the office is usually celebrated by a few rounds at the local pub.
The technology is different, problems are the same. I think most people would assume it's absurd to record their phone conversations and a serious infringement on privacy. Of course some parents make rules on when the kids can use the phone or keep access to the phone in the community areas of the home. i.e. no you can't take the phone into the bed room. Sometimes the old solutions work best.

Name some non-government-subsidized product made in the US that has decimated a third world/developing country workforce. I am not trying to be pissy. I'd just like to know.

Well as long as you are at it, you might as well block email given that there are reports that upward of 82% of it is spam. 419 scams, get-rich-quick schemes, multi-level-marketing, fake viagra, medication without a prescription, blatant fraud, identity theft, phishing, Pump & Dump stock trades, you name a scam & e-mail has it.
But still, for the 18% of mail that is legitamet, you still make use of it.
Just as e-mail systems block spam, you would do better to block the copy-right infringement websites. Maybe redirect them to OSS software sites & Creative Commons music sites where people can legally explore & download music.
Yes. List every recipe you have ever created. Have any funky dance moves? Put them in there too. Strummed some funky tunes on your guitar? Throw them in. Crap flood the document so they can't find anything of value.
Simply design the Plasma Screens/Boxes to be flipped upside down. Really, how technically difficult would that be?
A more technical approach to solving the problem might included monitoring or sampling pixel usage over time & creating a screen saver that even's out the pixel usage over time.

What e-mail do we have from 360insight & their users that violate the CANSPAM act &/or fraud laws? I say two can play at this game.

On the plus side, any accident involving one of these vehicles will automatically clear the road. No more traffic jams!
See prior art.
US unemployment statistics don't count those who have given up looking for work.

That would be great if I ever bothered checking my e-mail anymore.
What can we do with access to a person who will work (albeit limited in skill) for 60 cents an hour?
Maybe pay them to clear blog spam... or clean out our inboxes of spam...
Other countries just don't know common names.
Hopefully people learn things in games. Like how not to get swindled. I think they learned a cheep lesson.
nobody saw that one coming.
Start smoking. It's the 'insta-clique'. And that is where all the best tech gets hashed out.
Try holding your items hostage until your price is met ala "Free The Maps".
If your work is of enough value, people will make enough small contributions to pay off.
Two simple batch file to back up my thumb drive. One for the full drive. Another for just some critical files.
Just wait until he finds out how a Denial of Service attack feels like when it's played out on his @ss. Not to mention viral intrusions.
...but I am not getting paid to do it.

...when you ban smoking in all the Irish pubs. Give them a pint of Guiness, light up their smokes and they will return to normal.
Relax everybody & wait for the results to tricle out and digest. In the mean time, how about a nice tall freshing drink of Gelfling Essence?
