Computers of the typical user have been hacked over and over and over again, millions of them, formed into bot-nets. No amateur computer user with their bog default windows install hooked onto the internet via a broadband modem can keep it secure, just a matter of random dumb luck that they are not hacked at any particular time.
ISP records, the value of ISP records themselves have to be called into question. It is a system largely to control billing in the 20 dollars per month category, what would the ISP's responce be if they were required by the court to warrant the accuracy of their information to the tune of say 1 million dollars per in-accurate IP/time/date stamp. Courts are attempting to use circumstantial evidence from an validated source, of questionable quality.
In the car analogy, there was no record of the cars presence, the was not even a record of a cars registration plate, all there was were the claims by an agency about the digital representation of a number plate and who gets paid per claim and evidence from another group about where the digital representation maybe might have been subject to that group being totally free of any consequence with regards to the quality of the information provide.
Oh crap and bullshit, it's all about who gets to profit from the core domain names and not just locally within individual markets but upon a global basis. No matter the delusions, the US will not retain control over the core domain names in other countries, that will inevitably come to an end. Not to forget any country that tortures, murders by remote control, ignores justice when even it suits and, enters into war based upon corporate greed can lay claim to freedom of anything. For the last forty years the US has year after year sunk to new lows in selling out it's own populace, in abandoning democracy for campaign dollars and kick backs, in exercises of homicidal mania across the whole face of the planet, in the global corruption of democracy and free speech in favour of corporate for profit mass media control. Name the country who has killed more people than the US in the last decade or even 1 tenth that number.
Companies have hundreds of billions of dollars because they keep it in their pockets, well, at least in offshore tax haven bank accounts. Spending it on stuff that doesn't make money in one form or another, is not in their playbook, forget charity washing and green washing, that's called PR. Some of the players will be there to obstruct for their advantage, to pre-patent and leverage standards in their favour and to break it if it proves disadvantageous. When normal everyday people release via creative commons, other normal everyday people can readily use it. When mega-corps release via creative commons they can still quite readily economically beat normal everyday people to death with lawyers long before normal everyday prove their case in court. In a 'they who patent first wins world' when 'they' can spend enough on lawyers to win regardless of whose idea it really was, little people showcasing their ideas for free makes little on no sense in an environment created by corporations for corporations.
Make no mistake Google, M$ and Apple are all publicly guilty of stealing other peoples ideas, patenting them and claiming them as their own, liars and cheats to a man or woman. So giving away your ideas on their web site might not be the best way to go.
Warning about P/E, what was is not necessarily what will be. When you are buying shares you are buying on what will be, when you are selling shares you are selling because you don't believe what was will be as good as what will be. Even more importantly when selling because what became, was in fact worse than what will be, the act of attempting to unload what became of what you bought will further depress the price.
A word about the consumer bubble. A consumer bubble is where you psychological place people, a place where they believe they become better people based upon the products they buy. They can prove they are better people because they can show off the better people maker products to all those other less well endowed people around them. Bust that bubble around a particular product so that it no longer floats around in that consumer bubble and it comes crashing down because of course that product now makes people who flash it look, well like, bubble heads, iBubble anyone, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ibubble.ibubble&hl=en.
In a nutshell many companies are twisting their minds all out of shape as to how best combine the smart phone, smart tablet and smart book into as cheap and easily connectible system as possible. How to cut corners in cost, and where best to stick that smart phone, to the tablet, to the keyboard and of course to the big screen TV (will the problems never end). Everyone knows they who do it best will be the next Apple, while Apple rots in the barrel with the rest. Motorola is conducting experiments, with which the arm all competitors in the Android market space.
For ease of use, tapping the devices together to let them sort it out remotely is the easiest but damn, you have to pay for all that hardware four time to do it. Twice is about the best you can hope for, you can hide the profit in the bug screen but eventually customers are going to wake up to how much they are getting screwed over when it comes to smart phones and charging them twice more is going to be a struggle. ASUS seems to temporarily be closest http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/02/28/asus-padfone-brings-phone-tablet-docking-station-and-stylus-to-ice-cream-sandwich/ but implementation is somewhat broken.
Likely reality those profit margins on smart phones especially on their way over priced components is going to start crashing pretty soon and a quick tap is most likely the easiest solution. Specialist phones type companies are screwed as the broad product range companies take over on a commoditised product.
Lets not forget product accounts, accounts to market products. Then redundant accounts, people changed names. Try and forgotten accounts because it is so hard to erase your data. Of course there is always Facebooks rather crappy and falling share price
'hmm' 1 billion users, that'll pump up the share price. So Facebook should have been honest with the investing public and declared how many active user accounts, not presented information to the public with an intent to deceive non-inside investors (those ass hats selling shares). The SEC should conisder an investigation to review the truth or falsity of that statement "1 billion" users due to the impact upon investors.
The most important reason is the rubber band principle. Many people in many social interactions are forced to suck it up ie the high school nerd vs the jock strap douche, the polite waiter vs the arrogant low tipping tea bagger, the person on the street vs the steroided out of control cop, the typical minimum wage obedient employee vs the raging 1% republican employer who enjoys firing people etc. etc. etc..
It is not normal social interaction that causes the internet problem, it is distorted inhumane social interactions where some douche via distortions in human society is able to force their aggressive and anti-social behaviour upon others in social interactions, leaving those others, those nobodies that the Wall Street Journal and that MIT professor can't even remember that exist, the indivisible people who are forced to bow and grovel, absorbing the direct social abuse under threat of violence (that violence includes firing resulting in loss of home and sustenance).
Well on the internet that stretched and abused temperament will often spring back, out of control not simply because of the freedom to express themselves but striking back at a society which forces them to suck up abuse day in and day out because that society in a truly distorted manner empowers ill behaved narcissists and psychopaths. The problem here is not the anonymity on the internet, the problem is society failure to 'FORCE' more reasonable behaviour out of those who society empowers and make no mistake, that must be forced upon those who would so readily abuse the power they have. Freedom on the internet ain't the problem, the abuse that occurs and has been occurring long before anyone anonymously connected to the internet, is the true problem.
Now those abusers who so routinely abuse people directly and in public basically want to be able to carry over that power onto the internet. The sickness is visible, the problem is not the trolls, the problem are those who are all to willing to use the power of money to silence anyone they want to for any reason they want to.
Just more Apple marketing. Ohh leaks and special information about super special Apple products, really all so lame. Notice Apple never public comments, it always leaks, yet it is the most security conscious employees must STFU or be fired company on the planet. When will this lame arsed marketing tactic end.
It is all down to marketing. Netbook sales have dropped of specifically because marketing for them has dropped off. The reason of course, basically key manufacturers in 'collusion' with intel decided to create the title 'ultrabook' to ramp up profit margins on notebooks, something that is well and truly missing with netbooks, in fact pressure was in the market to get the price of netbooks down even lower.
All those fancy smancy titles are pure marketing, in the end you just have various screen size notebooks with various profit margins applied dependent upon market collusion, usually set up by the main ring leader culprits Intel or M$.
When it comes to Apple's market share those marketdroids are always looking for ways to slice and dice the market, exaggerate, exclude, or just plain bullshit to make it look like they are selling more than they are to scam people into paying the inflated Apple price.
Biased news is a lie, nothing more and nothing less. News should always be cleanly and truthfully reported, only what news is covered and what is ignored should be targeted at a specific audience. People are confusing editorials specified as such and propaganda ie editorials masquerading as news. Even worse we have out and out delightful advertising masquerading as news.
Reality is news should be a legally protected description and title, any information published under it should be challengeable in court and severe fines even prison sentences applied for lies. Want to express opinion than denote it as such and not as news.
But, and it one great big ginormous "BUT", when you get the numbers wrong you are fucked, well and truly "FUCKED". Especially when it's no real numbers you are talking about but guestimates. Well, they fucked up, the got the guestimate numbers wrong and now they are fucked. They should be hauled across the coals, publicly shamed and all associated with the erroneous numbers fired. You seem to have forgotten how that bit of the numbers game works and I assure that is the reality. Make you guesses, get it right fine, get it wrong then you are fucked and they got it wrong.
At the very least a please explain why should be mandated. So use the free book or provide substantive reasons why a high cost printed text book is required. Explanation to be made public and to be reviewed by an educators board. This to block greedy professors and of course to promote worthwhile updates to the free texts.
Ass hat, you confuse, the current American government with America, corrupt politicians with the majority of Americans. Stop, think and learn, criticising a governments acts is not insulting the bulk of citizens just those who were elected and failed to represent the people.
The vaporous enemy in this case is not Julian Assange, it is anyone who releases the truth. This is a declaration of war on all whistle blowers, a message to people all over the world, should you release the truth about the United States of America, the United States of America, corruptly and with full intent to pervert the course of justice, will hunt you down, not just for what you have done but as a continued reminder for others.
This act more than any other speaks of the corruption of the United States, of it pursuit of political gain regardless of the lies, the lives lost or the corruption of justice. The speaks of a United States that goes out of it's way to hide incompetence because it looks better regardless of how much incompetence results. All leading to escalating failure until it no longer can be hidden.
This is bureaucracy at to protect it's criminality and corruption, of individual who have gained position of power through political appointment, seeking to keep that power by hiding their failures and corrupting the government departments they are meant to serve.
There is a war going on, an insane war, where criminals in government service in associations with criminal contractors and desperately trying to keep the billion dollar gravy train flowing with false intelligence, by hiding crimes, by making false claims of national security, by creating the illusion and lie that should the truth be known the US will suffer.
The truth is, the public demonstration of the willingness to investigate and prosecute your own, publicly demonstrates integrity and proves the value of democracy and justice. That has always been the truth, there will always be failures, there will always be criminals who gain position of power and those shit heads will always spread the lie that should you publicly punish them it will make everyone look bad, lie, lie, lie. No greater proof exists of the value of justice than it's unwavering application. No greater lie exists than crimes must go unpunished in order to protect your reputation, once you do that, than in truth you no longer have something to protect.
The United States is now the evil that they claim to fight, they have sullied themselves as a child dirties it nappy and by refusing to remove that soiled garment they continue to fill it.
Mainly because whose mistake was it, who can we blame, who can we run through the wringer, who can we get fired and, who can we make claims of political power about. Basically a background staffer who made a really goof ball mistake, who likely will be demoted anyhow and who has zero repercussions on the election. So good fun storey but zero impact on the election. Likely did a good search for images of warship and picked the one they liked the best with complete lack of knowledge, something Americans are well known for generally and as far as political points go, better mileage could be achieved of it in, Russia.
The principle is to create a single archived source of political information that the public is taught to rely upon. Note it does create the information, it simply distributes and stores it permanently and legally requires all paid politically commercials to be initially distributed from it. In the US it would be the library of congress.
They had whole religious genocidal wars, they had the inquisition and they fiddled all over the new world spreading death where ever they went. So rarely in comparison to all the other ways they killed and tortured people to death. The dark ages are called the dark ages why hmmm?
More like, let's blame doctorates in psychology for targeting marketing at children. I don't know about you but I fully expect a person with a doctorate in psychology to scam a child into eating food that will harm the child, psychopaths go to university to you know and they lover to be able to control people.
Currently the worst thing around is using a calorimeter to measure calories. Dry out food and burn it to measure the energy it contains, guess what even roughage has calories. A new measure is required human consumable calories per minute. Otherwise human excreta just like all the other excreta on the planet contains a shit load of calories. Ever wonder why raw fruits and vegetables come up with near the same calorie content as an equal volume of lolly water, yep, the ass hats are counting all those calories that it is impossible for a human to be able to metabolise and that they in fact excrete out and a nett loss of calories in the failed attempt to digest them. Where as with the lolly water apart from the water and the purposefully addictive junk chemicals, that sugar is fully digestible at very rapid rates.
Google however has to be notified of these violations. Each and every violation has to be discovered, reported and confirmed. A you tube video can be re-released at depth throughout the world and Brazil only has jurisdiction over publication and readership within Brazil and definitely more on the publication side and far less on the readership side. So if the video is uploaded outside of Brazil and read by people outside of Brazil then Brazil has zero jurisdiction.
What really needs to happen is a different channel of distribution of political adds needs to be created, to take into account the internet age. Logically a federal government, each country to it's own, server farm hosting all political commercial, federal, state and local. This channel is to be mandated as the only legitimately channel for the distribution of political content with fines associated with the commercial distribution of content sourced from all other locations. This with a public information campaign to inform people of the archival distribution point for all political campaign material, nothing alterable and nothing deletable, all material for re-distribution upon a commercial basis must be sourced from recorded copy.
Next up will be prosecution of Facebook and Twitter. More purposeful assaults on free speech.
Let's see section 8 US constition "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;
To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;
See the pesky bit about uniformity and of course, allowing tax evasion in certain states allows gross distortion in commerce. See straight up, by making campaign donation you can effectively cheat on state taxes by gaining an exemption. Large corporation in stead of paying say 10 million dollars in state taxes can pay a public 1 million dollar bribe to gain tax exemption. This results in grossly distorted trade between states and congress is empowered to balance regulate commerce between that states and ensure " all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States", no state and local tax cheating allowed. You wonder why Mitt Romney and Co want to shift corporate tax bills to state and local government and avoid federal government. So there was definitely intention built within the US constitution to block tax cheating at state and local level. No utopia just being fair.
Oh, I get it, you are the almighty of the internet only your opinion counts, did you miss the part where I refuted your opinion. That's how forums work, different people put up different ideas and opinions and have them challenged, perhaps you are used to a far more right orientated censored forum, where only certain views are allowed.
For downloads the issue is for the individual trying to figure out with all the hundreds of billions of definable individual definable bits of copyrighted at hundreds of millions of locations on the internet, which they are allowed to download and which they are not allowed to download. Downloaders have to rely on the copyright integrity of the people providing the content. All copyrighted content being treated equally, whether a single photo, an essay, a poem, a news item or a video, and every possible web site even personal web sites given the benefit of the doubt otherwise requiring every uploader to hold a licence and all content to be vetted, even people who own a digital phone.
So it is looking more and more like the creation of biased copyright laws, where certain corporations are legally able to force the government to protect all of the corporations content at the taxpayers expense, whilst that same corporation is entitled to 'steal' (actually steal as in claim ownership of that content and deny the content creator ownership, not copying) everyone else's content.
So copying is not copying. Copying as distorted in the silencing of free speech upon the accusation of copying with absolutely no repercussions for repeated false accusations. All content comes under attack, every video, every image and every written piece.
Talking about attacks on free speech. There are snippets about the free speech being of questionable value in main-stream-media starting to float about. About it's threat to the social good and how it should be controlled. This has all the corporate stink of for profit corporate lies should be protected and actual 'FREE' free speech, you that unprofitable stuff called the truth, needs to be controlled because of it's negative impact on corporate profits. Those Muslims in all their rage only managed to burn down one bloody McDonalds out of 33,247. The whole thing is starting to stink of a surreptitious attack on free speech.
I am trying to fathom why you would be believe that main stream media owned and operated by right wing corporations would some how be liberal controlled. Here's a hint, corporations live to buy stuff cheap and sell it expensive, beyond that they don't give a crap about anything. Whether the stuff kills people when it made, whether the stuff kills people where it sold as long as the corporation makes a profit. Corporations also love to put a front on, a masquerade behind which to hide, don't offend anyone where it might affect profits.
Don't de daft and confuse liberal with marketing. I would point you to the recent riots obstructing Japanese plants in China and having a dramatic impact on profits all over a couple of completely useless island and nothing at all to do with religion.
So corporate own right wing media, that cares nothing about anything but corporate profits, will placate the loudest noises not because they are good or bad or with any regard to the consequences, simply they are the loudest noises and likely to have the greatest impact on corporate profits eg a lot of oil is produced in the middle east by western corporations, if the riots were to shift to those locations it would have a huge impact on oil profits, hence main stream media attempts to placate the noisy population and ignores fundamental rights. So idiotic knee jerk reactionary, "ANTI-INTELLECTUAL" thinking or expression on a prof intellectual forum, really just makes you look foolish because you have no real understanding of what is going on. Muslims are so angry at the US why the bloody hell aren't the protesting at oil refineries and oil shipping facilities and endeavouring to cut off the oil supply to the west. Why is there silence in Saudi Arabia where a substantive owner of Fox not-News is based? Since when is GE a liberal company?
You really need to learn the difference between liberal (free and open expression) and corporate greed and how much and in what ways corporate greed impacts main-stream-media and their "BIG HEADLINES".

Currently the worst thing around is using a calorimeter to measure calories. Dry out food and burn it to measure the energy it contains, guess what even roughage has calories. A new measure is required human consumable calories per minute. Otherwise human excreta just like all the other excreta on the planet contains a shit load of calories. Ever wonder why raw fruits and vegetables come up with near the same calorie content as an equal volume of lolly water, yep, the ass hats are counting all those calories that it is impossible for a human to be able to metabolise and that they in fact excrete out and a nett loss of calories in the failed attempt to digest them. Where as with the lolly water apart from the water and the purposefully addictive junk chemicals, that sugar is fully digestible at very rapid rates.
Google however has to be notified of these violations. Each and every violation has to be discovered, reported and confirmed. A you tube video can be re-released at depth throughout the world and Brazil only has jurisdiction over publication and readership within Brazil and definitely more on the publication side and far less on the readership side. So if the video is uploaded outside of Brazil and read by people outside of Brazil then Brazil has zero jurisdiction.
What really needs to happen is a different channel of distribution of political adds needs to be created, to take into account the internet age. Logically a federal government, each country to it's own, server farm hosting all political commercial, federal, state and local. This channel is to be mandated as the only legitimately channel for the distribution of political content with fines associated with the commercial distribution of content sourced from all other locations. This with a public information campaign to inform people of the archival distribution point for all political campaign material, nothing alterable and nothing deletable, all material for re-distribution upon a commercial basis must be sourced from recorded copy.
Next up will be prosecution of Facebook and Twitter. More purposeful assaults on free speech.
Let's see section 8 US constition "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;To borrow Money on the credit of the United States; To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;
See the pesky bit about uniformity and of course, allowing tax evasion in certain states allows gross distortion in commerce. See straight up, by making campaign donation you can effectively cheat on state taxes by gaining an exemption. Large corporation in stead of paying say 10 million dollars in state taxes can pay a public 1 million dollar bribe to gain tax exemption. This results in grossly distorted trade between states and congress is empowered to balance regulate commerce between that states and ensure " all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States", no state and local tax cheating allowed. You wonder why Mitt Romney and Co want to shift corporate tax bills to state and local government and avoid federal government. So there was definitely intention built within the US constitution to block tax cheating at state and local level. No utopia just being fair.
I was leaping passed the children and retired folk, so as to avoid argument ie 1 in 10, perhaps I should have clarified.
Oh, I get it, you are the almighty of the internet only your opinion counts, did you miss the part where I refuted your opinion. That's how forums work, different people put up different ideas and opinions and have them challenged, perhaps you are used to a far more right orientated censored forum, where only certain views are allowed.
For downloads the issue is for the individual trying to figure out with all the hundreds of billions of definable individual definable bits of copyrighted at hundreds of millions of locations on the internet, which they are allowed to download and which they are not allowed to download. Downloaders have to rely on the copyright integrity of the people providing the content. All copyrighted content being treated equally, whether a single photo, an essay, a poem, a news item or a video, and every possible web site even personal web sites given the benefit of the doubt otherwise requiring every uploader to hold a licence and all content to be vetted, even people who own a digital phone.
So it is looking more and more like the creation of biased copyright laws, where certain corporations are legally able to force the government to protect all of the corporations content at the taxpayers expense, whilst that same corporation is entitled to 'steal' (actually steal as in claim ownership of that content and deny the content creator ownership, not copying) everyone else's content.
So copying is not copying. Copying as distorted in the silencing of free speech upon the accusation of copying with absolutely no repercussions for repeated false accusations. All content comes under attack, every video, every image and every written piece.
Talking about attacks on free speech. There are snippets about the free speech being of questionable value in main-stream-media starting to float about. About it's threat to the social good and how it should be controlled. This has all the corporate stink of for profit corporate lies should be protected and actual 'FREE' free speech, you that unprofitable stuff called the truth, needs to be controlled because of it's negative impact on corporate profits. Those Muslims in all their rage only managed to burn down one bloody McDonalds out of 33,247. The whole thing is starting to stink of a surreptitious attack on free speech.
I am trying to fathom why you would be believe that main stream media owned and operated by right wing corporations would some how be liberal controlled. Here's a hint, corporations live to buy stuff cheap and sell it expensive, beyond that they don't give a crap about anything. Whether the stuff kills people when it made, whether the stuff kills people where it sold as long as the corporation makes a profit. Corporations also love to put a front on, a masquerade behind which to hide, don't offend anyone where it might affect profits.
Don't de daft and confuse liberal with marketing. I would point you to the recent riots obstructing Japanese plants in China and having a dramatic impact on profits all over a couple of completely useless island and nothing at all to do with religion.
So corporate own right wing media, that cares nothing about anything but corporate profits, will placate the loudest noises not because they are good or bad or with any regard to the consequences, simply they are the loudest noises and likely to have the greatest impact on corporate profits eg a lot of oil is produced in the middle east by western corporations, if the riots were to shift to those locations it would have a huge impact on oil profits, hence main stream media attempts to placate the noisy population and ignores fundamental rights. So idiotic knee jerk reactionary, "ANTI-INTELLECTUAL" thinking or expression on a prof intellectual forum, really just makes you look foolish because you have no real understanding of what is going on. Muslims are so angry at the US why the bloody hell aren't the protesting at oil refineries and oil shipping facilities and endeavouring to cut off the oil supply to the west. Why is there silence in Saudi Arabia where a substantive owner of Fox not-News is based? Since when is GE a liberal company?
You really need to learn the difference between liberal (free and open expression) and corporate greed and how much and in what ways corporate greed impacts main-stream-media and their "BIG HEADLINES".
