Or could you just implant metamaterials in your cornea to correct your vision?
I wonder how many nurses it would take to hold the patient down once they learned of your plan to go after their cornea with an ion-beam rework system?
This is why you inject them with Happy Juice (tm) before telling them the details.
I found Assange appears to be biased and targets democracies, not they don't need some oversight but seems to not want to expose the secrets of totalitarian regimes such as China, North Korea, Russia etc etc.
In that he has a program on Russian state TV which is 100% under the control of Putin, a former KGB officer, who has the opinion that the greatest tragedy of the 20th century was the fall of the Soviet Union -- which happens to have been one of the most brutal authoritarian regimes of the 20th century.
It seems he has no issues tieing himself with an totalitarian head of state Putin, and also went to seek assylum with a country that has a poor human rights record for media freedoms (Ecuador) according to Amnesty International, makes me suspect he either has extremely poor judgement or has an anti-western democracy bias. The sexual assault allegations seem to suggest he does have poor judgement.
I suspect he will have no desire to release state secrets from Russia, China and other totalitarian regimes, thus my belief he is ideologically biased thus has no credibility.
We wouldn't need wikileaks for that. Simple as that. If Russia, China, North Korea or any similar countries play false simply sending the info to any major western news outlet would do. They'd be happy to publish it. But what happens if you know the US killed journalists and tried to hush things up? How can one get that info out? A democracy requires the voter to be able to judge those he needs to vote for. It is therefor important to know what happens within our governments. I would prefer every politician to be put on trial after every turn. They would have to explain their actions and motivations and should face severe penalties if they failed the trust that the public installed into them.
Well if he did rape these girls he should go into prison for this crime after a trial. The problem here is that right now the only base for his arrest is that the Swedish police wants to question(!) him. Why can't they do this in London? If this is only about the rape charges, why doesn't Sweden guarantee that he won't be sent to the US?
There are far to many strange things going on with this whole thing to believe it to be only about the rape charges.
I always considered it very interesting how much fuss countries like the US or Australia make at customs fearing to introduce alien species into their environment (and for very good reasons), but don't seem to worry about introducing completely new species.
On the other hand, If people really don't want GM food, why should they be unable to make a choice and vote with their wallet? Their reasons might be silly and non logic but once you start to withhold information from the public "because they don't understand it" you're going down a very slippery slope. Where do you stop?
Well, how about a "double check before take-down". Put large channels (yes even corporate ones) on a double check list. Then review the claims by a human (paid by cooperation who don't want to be taken down instantly) and fine the hell out of anybody making false claims.
It wouldn't hurt them to get a few people to double check take down notices for the largest channels. But I agree that the law is biased toward the accuser and there should be a lot more pain involved for false accusations.

And thereby raking in lots of money for them through advertisement or at least page views. Being slashdotted isn't that bad anymore, if you aren't some small company with limited data.

Well there already is. Nasa will probably not pursue this, but they could very well sue for damages. On the other hand they really could use the funding
You are right. I saw this about 2 seconds after hitting submit, but couldn't think of a witty "oh the irony" self reply.

...but the KGB bots modded it down.
Well played...
I guess both the Russians and the US have been thinking tanks for quite a long time.
I'm looking forward to the Obama-Romney bot war because it might be an actual improvement on the quality of the average statement.
In (Soviet) Russia the spambots filter you.

Require vaccination before entering any public school, kindergarten, college or taking any job that requires customer interaction.

There used to be this really old joke about windows being a virus. On the other hand good viruses used to be well written and go unnoticed.
Your reasoning does not comply with MS bashing guidelines. Please refrain from using your brain so often.

A company is not a person. It is subject to a couple of different rules already.

No, ./ will just send a hit squad over to your place and implement a more permanent multi-platform ban. Way more effective.
Nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
If humans are one thing, they are pretty bad losers.

Good question actually and I would really like to see a list of companies that do this published.
don't architects consider themselves to be artists?
