I am completely aware of what it covers and what it doesn't. What pisses me off is that this is an artificial restriction; bandwidth is bandwidth, and it shouldn't matter how you use it.
The spokesperson did not clarify what happens once the 5GB cap is reached, however an earlier report indicated that customers will be billed $0.05 per megabyte over 5GB if their usage goes over the cap in a single billing period.
$50 per GB overage. I bet they don't even try to tell you until you get your bill either.
Anonymous is anyone; after all, they're anonymous. The drug cartels don't like the Mexican government. Since anyone can claim to be part of Anonymous, what better way to shift the blame AND send a message at the same time?
I guarantee there's a severance clause that says that if a section is deemed unenforceable or unconscionable, it is struck and the rest of the contract remains in full force.
I think Linux gets all three mostly because of its protracted development time (most of the time I hear the triangle as Speed, Quality, and Cost anyway).
IANAL, but my understanding is that it's easy not to incriminate yourself if you haven't been arrested, because if you haven't been arrested you have the right to get up and leave.
Your understanding is incorrect. Police can detain you (indefinitely in some areas) without formally arresting you. Usually this is so they can find some reason to arrest you.
And yet the idiots on Cops talk (and consent to a search) every time. The majority of people seem to think they can talk their way out of a ticket / arrest, probably because they've been told they should always cooperate with police officers no matter what, and they figure not answering would be not cooperating.
Police would still find plenty of uses for a device like this even though the smarter people will simply shut up like they should.
I want to lead, but fuck your game, if I'm going to lead I'm changing it. Governing should not be a game and the fact that it is speaks volumes about the corruption present in the system.
Yeah, were I to choose between them I'd definitely pick Android. It's a nice bonus that (from what I hear) it uses a variation on Java, which is partially transferrable outside Android anyway.
Right, because the smartphone market is just so much bigger than the web market, and locking yourself into coding for a specific smartphone platform couldn't possibly backfire...
I'm not even saying that learning smartphone development would be a bad idea, just that your kneejerk "pfft, web dev, do this instead" without any reasoning doesn't add to the conversation at all.
That's simultaneously the best and least sensical analogy I've read on Slashdot in a long time. Kudos.
Please also ignore the fact that our contract with the OEM required them to lock down their systems.
I'm pretty sure they require astronauts to have 20/20 vision, hence the risk of grounding.

I was considering finally getting a smartphone and Sprint was at the top of my list due to their unlimited plans. So much for that.
And then AT&T just has to buy Verizon and it's back to Ma Bell for everyone!
The difference, of course, is that this time they'll own the justice department as well.
Ha! Government run services. In the United States. Good luck.
Enterprise. I'm a Star Trek fan, but I think that disproves your point.
Bingo.

I'd guess the specificity of sexual orientation was requested by the MIB for exactly the reason you mentioned.
(And yes, that's a real thing.)
I bet Warner claims that because it was a freeware app, no damages can be awarded because no profit was lost.

The Feds will be very interested in this. If it pans out, expect portable versions deployed by police departments within five years.
They already have shell offices in East Texas for this reason (since otherwise they wouldn't be able to claim jurisdiction in East Texas).

Why would Google put effort into a search product that doesn't allow them access to your data for targeted advertising?
Agreed. Source code isn't everything in all circumstances. (On the other hand, I do avoid DRM like the plague, or disable it if I can't avoid it.)
Yeah, were I to choose between them I'd definitely pick Android. It's a nice bonus that (from what I hear) it uses a variation on Java, which is partially transferrable outside Android anyway.
Zynga is definitely one of those companies I would label immoral, for a variety of reasons.
