Once upon a time: c+=c+++++c; was a perfectly valid statement in the project.
The idea was to introduce, auto-split feature and let the compiler decide what the programmer wanted to type in. This would have saved programmers time and make them more productive. (Dreams, o marketing dreams).
But, how do you deal with something as: a+= b+++c; is it: a+= b++ + c; or is it: a+=b + ++c;
It took 2 hour meeting (with 4 people) to convince the newly appointed marketing guy to leave the idea.
(A bit off topic but...) once upon a time (before the development team fixed the bug) c+=c+++++c; to be perfectly valid:) It was a mighty looking statement.
We expect to see more blended threats: exploit code that combines malicious code with vulnerabilities in order to launch an attack. This mixed with irc connectiviy, LAN port scanning, update downloads... Sounds like a full time job to create one. What are these people gaining anyway?
Nope, you are getting it all wrong, imagine the following:
"And by this, my dear shareholders, our development team will know that their email is read, thus, reducing the time they spend on writing non-work related emails to minimum... and...":) Management 101 = "everything is magic"
The funny thing is... well, not so much funny as it is disturbing, signing an employment contract.
Remember that signature on that thick paper you've signed prior getting that high paid tech job? The one saying that everything you think of during working hours is theirs? The one that maybe is saying (in some cases) that everything you think on and off during working hours, while employed or 3 years after also belongs to them?
Well, it seems to me, and I might be way off here, that thinking up an email by an employee is in fact his company's property and hence, they have all the rights to read it, and it doesn't breaks anyone's right to privacy.
Can anyone with legal experience enlighten me on this one? Do the bastards have the right to do so, provided that one doesn't sign a document that explicitly states "you can read my email" but instead contains a fine version of "all your bases, off lunch hours, belongs to us?

it's about having as much control over the distribution channel as possible. There isn't much control in the p2p channel, people dont publish (as ISP do) name and contact info together with the files.

Check this you need bigger wing span to generate more power, also the less complicated design, less maintenance time. With large number of small things... although they might be cheap enough not to care about that.

hmm... your post is good
Can you give me more information on the "pre-existing intellectual property".
I'll be very interested to hear how you are handling that one.
Mod me troll, but, I've always wondered why all the brave men have that stiff walk ;)

in fact, you can set up the whole system with two independent groups reading each other's emails ;)

Counting on the sulphur and high acid environment to deal to the creature has yielded little as Dino refuses to die
It would probably take a meteor.

3. report ? where? surely the apps won't just be checking for infrigment and sit with that, it's a bit pointless...
