Damn, I'm looking forward to seeing you asshats in the crosshairs of my sniper rifle. Now why does "People's Republic of China" make me giggle so hard?
Your assumptions amuse me, mistakening me for Chinese.
Because your government doesn't have a say in the matter either. If you actually followed European politics, you would discover that we are in a situation where we are being ruled by a class of people who are unelected by us, or by our countries. It does not matter who you vote for in your country, they cannot change the EU government, they have no power to do so.
They use our governments to sign treaties and such to distract public opinion (they could push it through without our consent via self amending treaties like the Lisbon treaty). For some reason, none of the news media really reports on the happenings inside the EU.
Fortunately, we have some politicians that despite their lack of power, are trying to deal with the situation anyway. But, they need our support in doing so.
The EU can't figure out how to fix Greece or Italy
You clearly haven't been following the EU parliament. They don't give a shit about Greece or Italy, they want to save the Euro project, so they won't let them leave and subsidize in hope this will keep the Euro project afloat.
all the crap that is posted and re-posted at the start of every comment page on every story
I don't know.. I haven't seen many "Does it run Linux?", "You must be new here", "Beowulf cluster" or "I for one welcome our" type posts in a while now. I remember those used to on every article.
The 24 hour security breach notification and stiff fines sound like a good idea.
I see this hurting small businesses, have you seen how much legislation and regulations are involved?
In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if a large company started selling services to manage private data for all the smaller companies because the proposed legislation has too much for a small organisation to figure out without expensive legal services.
They just love increasing the costs of doing business in the EU.
They should work on planting "illegal" files on top government officials' home computers then blow the whistle on them.
What do you propose be put on those files? I mean, if the previous Polish presidents can't get removed for calling his opponents a bitch on national, or have well known money laundering, having bank accounts where 'bribes' cannot be monitored etc. What/is/ going to do any damage?
This is also ignoring the fact that Poland is still very much a paper oriented bureaucracy. Poland has never reacted kindly to hostile acts and still many of the people who ran the legal system back under communist rule are still there and still many of the old policies and attitudes remain.
All this information is public, why didn't anonymous do the minimum of investigation into Poland's political history?
I would like to know specifically what 'dirt' should appear on their computer systems, that won't result in a risk of making the situation worse off - since you are calling out for this action, you should have investigated this thoroughly.
Do you know any methods to improve tethering? I use my 3G phone as a WiFi hotspot. It seems that when the connection is idle for a while, it takes some time to kick it up to full speed.
Change your TCP/IP congestion algorithm to something like Compound TCP (CTCP).
I realize there is probably a really good reason why they are not using the builtin compression tools available. What are they again?
Current implementations in Apache require a page to be generated fully before sending to the client, doesn't compress certain elements well and can in fact increase the size.
Yupp. Fuck GEMA. Make sure to never buy any GEMA music
GEMA pretty much handes music publishing for Germany. Almost all labels use them and many independents do too. One of the reasons why they apparently stay in a good position for publishing in Germany is that the deals they negotiate with labels and independents tend to be very much in their favour with a democratic voting scheme on various policies they take.
instead you could just pirate the music and give the musicians a donation.
You could potentially cause those musicians to end up on the wrong side of a lawsuit (maybe not by GEMA, but by their label or even a different publisher they use in a different country) if they accepted the donation.
Is a great example on why SOPA, PIPA and all the bunch should not exist. There is a whole world of crazy things like this that could be done and won't because this kind of laws, that could enrich us all (and yes, i saw it).
By God you're right. You've convinced me to promote SOPA and PIPA now. We won't have any more of this shit enriching our lives!:D:D:D
Firefox is so very famous for nom nom noming all your memory over time.
I have 24GiB of RAM on my main system, Firefox is only taking 612MiB, despite having been open for almost two days now with hundreds of tabs. Why can't I reproduce these problems everyone is having on this system?
On my netbook, Firefox is using roughly the same (having been open only an hour, very few pages), the system only has 1GiB of RAM. Why can't I reproduce it eating all of the RAM on this system either?
I just don't get why/I/ don't have these problems. You'd think if it was so common I'd be having them, being someone who uses Firefox heavily.
Way back in the 90s, you could actually ask an english natural-language question at Altavista, and have a serious chance at getting a response that made sense
I just asked Google, "What is my IP address?" and it answered "Your public IP address is..." with my IP address.
DNS isn't a law, or even under the control of the US government. That is the point. Once they do actually control DNS, then yes, DNS ceases to be a reliable way to resolve domain names and we need to get rid of it. My point wasn't that having a centralized structure is the problem, its worked well enough for many years; it's constant expansion of government powers that create the slippery slope.
I wasn't aware of how clients reacted to this and it certainly wasn't documented in DNS RFCs I read. Paul Vixie has a point. That said, one could use alternatively Paul Vixie's DNS RPZ system, which apparently existing DNS servers and DNSSEC implementations support for blocking even though it's not officially standardized and may need future development to function appropriately as he noted himself.
Sorry, but I don't give a FUCK about what it's "intended" to be used for,
Then why are you raising this point? My argument was against the fact that people raise a fake intent and then shoot that down intent, making the legislation look like it fails at what it was intended to do, when in actual fact it was intending to do something else.
Funnily enough, TPB is immune to the provisions of this bill as it's currently written. You claim you've read the bill, right?
See the section on facilitating copyright infringement in the legislation.
Sounds like you have no problem making streaming, DNS anti-circumvention and and linking criminal offenses... which this bill would do.
Sounds like you're an ass who didn't read my entire post when I said I don't support the bill.
Were you referring to someone in particular? The person you were replying to, perhaps? Or was that a moment of self-reflection?
I went ahead and read the legislation proposed, I also went and read a lot of RFCs on the matter. I consider myself to have done a fair good amount of research. Because everyone who kept telling me about SOPA couldn't even describe how DNSSEC worked to begin with, but told me it was going to break it. I even have doubts you read the legislation to begin with since you come to some conclusions referenced in articles that were taken out of context from the legislation.
No they aren't, you're just wrong.
You dismissed my previous point where people are misrepresenting the intent of the legislation. Sorry, you're wrong.
Slashdot Mirror
Then that one side should stop suing Youtube over "not doing enough". It wouldn't be so much a problem then.

Not the century one that forgets where the majority of the world's population or where the strongest currency is.
I bought a server from Hetzner and run Zimbra Collaboration Server Open Source Edition on it.
Your article references the U.S. only. You do know there is more countries than just the U.S, right?
I don't know.. I haven't seen many "Does it run Linux?", "You must be new here", "Beowulf cluster" or "I for one welcome our" type posts in a while now. I remember those used to on every article.
Perhaps your memory is failing you?
That's only if the company isn't established in the union under article 25.
I see this hurting small businesses, have you seen how much legislation and regulations are involved?

Which is what I said.
You should have updated to IPv6, where is no such checksum in TCP.
Change your TCP/IP congestion algorithm to something like Compound TCP (CTCP).
Current implementations in Apache require a page to be generated fully before sending to the client, doesn't compress certain elements well and can in fact increase the size.
Almost worked for me, I just had to modify the configure script to accept the platform as 'Linux'. Other than that, worked 100% fine on Windows?

Google translate won't put this into English. :(
But at least he's insightful and not posting boring comments like this AC.
I just asked Google, "What is my IP address?" and it answered "Your public IP address is..." with my IP address.
Did I win a cookie?
Did you even read the legislation? A court order is required to revoke the access to begin with.
I concede to your point.
I wasn't aware of how clients reacted to this and it certainly wasn't documented in DNS RFCs I read. Paul Vixie has a point.
