one car stuck in the tracks, an accident or such and you're blocked
But most countries don't screw around with stalled cars and accidents like we do. They don't have half the police force standing around the site for half a day with their hands in their pockets. They get the people (or bodies) out, bring up a front loader or other large truck, push the disabled car into the ditch or up on a curb and get traffic moving again.
Full sized touchscreen displays are the thing these days. Too bad they didn't think to include a 'power-off' screen saver that looks like a hole in the dashboard with a couple of hanging cables so car thieves would think your stereo was already stolen.
It's not the sex offenders that are the problem, its letting kids plat games that encourage them to wander out into traffic while staring at their phones chasing Pokemon characters. Just ban kids from playing it.
You don't even have to cut it, just bend the strands enough so the some leaks out the side of the glass.
This is exactly what they do. They have something like a diving bell that they can loop a submarine cable through and seal it. They can then transfer some technicians from the mother sub to the bell through an airlock where they can peel the armor off the cable, isolate individual fibers and wrap them around such optical couplers.
3) The credit card companies adopted chip and signature which still leaves your card vulnerable to being stolen. They should have used chip and PIN
Yeah, maybe.
This is my understanding of the issue: Signature-based credit transactions place more burden on the merchant to verify. PIN-based place more burden on the customer to prove his credit card/PIN were stolen. It's all in the details of US consumer credit protection laws. Doesn't matter whether it's a mag stripe or chip. The alternative, which banks and merchants have pushed is the debit card. There are different rules so that it's harder for a customer to reverse the transaction and get their money back. Banks and vendors are happy.
Now, along comes chip and signature (with the same consumer protection rules as swipe and sign). Banks and merchants would rather have jumped straight to the chip and PIN system, or continued moving to deposit-backed (debit) systems. So the chip and signature migration is being sabotaged.
The Internet has no borders. Court jurisdictions do however.
Countries might try to mandate local storage for their citizens' data. But that is authoritarian control over their citizens, not so much the Internet. Anyone reasonably motivated can still move their data to overseas services if they are willing to incur the risk.
People have passwords for things other than their job. Hopefully, they don't use the same one for their DoD job and Slashdot.
I have 110 uid/passwords for various accounts (everything from banking to Netflix) stored safely (encrypted, pass-phrase protected) on a portable device.
I create a Twitter account expressly for this purpose. I send Mr Johnson my password. I now have deniability for anything else done using this account (as long as I obfuscate other identifying details such as my IP).

Your Freudian slip is showing.
A Raspberry Pi will do nicely.

Some people need a remote that they can throw in the dishwasher occasionally. Just saying.
Doesn't even have a front panel SCSI-1 port. Sony, WTF were you thinking?
They are all too busy answering surveys on their iDevices to have sex.
Maybe if those Pokemon characters would hold still after they've been caught, millennials could get some.
Because they are competing with Christian televangelists for a limited number of retarded morons in rich countries.

Yeah, there are places in the world
Well then, lets just air drop some loaded chip-based cash cards into their villages and see how much they like them.

Fine by me. If this country wants to go to war over the contents of my e-mail archive, go right ahead.
Robots are people. Just below corporations but well above Homo Sapiens.

Probably DGPS.
Look up royal prerogative. Administrations, legislatures and courts exempt themselves from many of the laws that they impose on the serfs.
How so? Politicians lying is protected speech.
Is something like this what you had in mind?
Family members? I wonder how that would go over with adult children.
"Son. I need to turn over your passwords in order to apply as Clinton's VP."
"Fuck you, dad. By the way, I'm voting for Trump."
