    You sound like someone who can spout bullshit, but when it comes to action only cower in the corner.

    If you don't think, after landing a plane in a river, overseeing the safe evacuation of the passengers in a sinking plane, verifying no passengers left behind in a still sinking plane, is heroic, then you're an absolute fucking moron.

    Try getting into a nasty car crash, perhaps into a stream, and trying to think right let alone save other people's lives, with huge amounts of adrenaline running through you. It's very, very, very difficult.

    That doesn't make it right or legal.

    No, malls are not for public use. They are for use by private entities who allow the public to enter.

    Regardless of what the SC said.

    Very good points.

    No, a mall is not a public place. It is a place the public can go to. Owned by a private entity.

    Huge difference. Regardless of what the SC said.

    For very poor definitions of 'rightfully'.

    And what is this right of unharassment? I've never heard of it before now.

    You might want to pick better examples to make your point. Eminent domain for malls is pretty off.

    From freedictionary.com:

    To exercise the power of eminent domain, the government must prove that the four elements set forth in the Fifth Amendment are present: (1) private property (2) must be taken (3) for public use (4) and with just compensation. These elements have been interpreted broadly.

    Even broadly, malls are not 'for public use'.

    It doesn't matter what you try to do - there are always enough "baddies" (whether trolls on the internet or criminals IRL) to ruin it for you.

    Then why worry about it? Shit happens. Punch it in the face.

    They also use very large antennas (relative to commercial/handheld units).

    The antenna's Henry is using are about 20" across and have some shielding to protect from signals reflected from the ground.

    That's not fixing the problem, that's fixing the symptom.

    Fixing the problem: Determine how it's subverting the master boot record and FIX that.
