Won't do much good. The social media officers in these cartels are expendable. Track one by their login credentials and apprehend them. And they'll just be replaced by the next one.
They won't turn on their employers either. The cartel penalty for testifying is far worse then that for not cooperating with the authorities.
Because that amounts to Zuck training his replacement,
Not in the sense you suggest. Zuckerberg is secure in his job, as are the other higher-ups in any company. The problem with funding the education of Americans is that they won't go back home with their OTJ training like H-1B employees do. And provide your company with the offshore resource to relocate your business.
Zuckerberg wants more H-1B visas so he can move his operations offshore. He's not so much training your replacement on an individual basis as working towards moving the whole code monkey department.
Not a problem. My GPS can already provide me a route around these arterials through the side residential streets. No traffic lights to content with at all.
I've seen something like this on main roads in and around Amsterdam. It was pretty old technology actually. Just a column of illuminated speeds which told you how fast you have to be going to catch the next green light. No countdown, guessing speeds or gauging distances needed.
The Audi 'sudden acceleration' problem killed far fewer people than this. But it only took one mother who refused to accept that she had just stomped on the wrong pedal and killed her own kid to go to Congress, start a shitstorm and get new regulations.
Do not underestimate the power of one person who can't accept responsibility for their actions.
I was under the impression that the quantity of cab medallions in NTC was pretty much fixed. And once the city sold them, the only people making money* off them were the people who held and traded them.
The medallion business was a replacement for the free market solution to limiting the number of cab companies in the city. Which involved Thompson machine guns.
The problem is that 'competition' in the taxi business used to involve more than a few bodies floating in New York's East River. Government stepped in to replace organized crime and violence with an (imperfect) system of regulation. But try to step outside that sphere of regulation and you'll be right back in that free market. Sure, you aren't taking money for rides. But that was a ride which might have paid the standard cab fare. And if the licensed cab businesses lose enough of that, its back to concrete overshoes.
Google and Facebook with their little pissing matches?
Come to work in the government contracting world. Where the players decide who will win which contracts and which employees each will need. And if you don't play ball, you might have a career as a barista at Starbucks. But they'll make any other companies life hell if they try and hire key people away.
Think of the labor involved in scooping it out of the jars before feeding it to something. Burn it in an incinerator after crushing the containers, maybe.
The telcos want to drop their old copper loop technology? Fine. But mandate that they offer a basic broadband+VoIP service in its place with the same universal service, common carrier requirements. If its the regulation they want to escape, sorry. That just shouldn't happen. If we let one entity escape the rule of law by fiddling with definitions, then we start down a slippery slope.
There's a story in Washington State that all of the river names here, Snohomish, Skykomish, Skokomish, have the postfix "ish". Which is an Indian term meaning "This is a flood plain, idiot. Don't build your house here."
Those New Orleans flood walls are already a joke. Another foot of rising sea level, plus the inevitable higher storm surges will easily knock those over.
If you want to see how to build proper dikes, look at how its done in the Netherlands. They build very deep embankments rather than thin vertical concrete panels. But to do this in New Orleans would require acquiring a wide strip of land on either side of the waterway. Given the nature of individual property rights in the USA, its not likely that this could be done. So to protect people's waterfront property, the rest of the city will have to live at risk of more breeched walls and flooding in the future.
I'd much rather have the FBI/CIA/NSA hang around with all the miscreants than spying on individuals at large. Sure, there's an issue of what probable cause they have to participate in such forums. But its the same thing that they do when undercover cops hang around a bar and wait for some moron to come in and look for a hit man.
It would be nice if they'd give the owners of compromised networks a call once in a while to get them started making repairs.
Rogers and his ilk just like peeking at their neighbors. When he retires from politics and moves back home, make certain you don't leave your curtains open. He probably has a telescope.

However, my latency seems to rise few ms every year.
That's just old age catching up with you. You need more fiber.
We did.
Back in the '90s we gave $2B to the telcos to run
Which they did. Not even waiting to hear the last half of the sentence.

I have a standing agreement with Gov. Christie to get expedited traffic flow on my way to work.
No. They are run by port authorities. Who are about as close to pure socialist institutions as you'll find in this country.
if Congress wants people to stop lieing to them
Just strap the CIA director to a table before the congressional committee and pour water on his face until he tells the truth.
What's good for the goose ....

Sorry. Puget Sound is polluted enough already.

The Democrats wants us making plenty of money. But they want a big cut before we get to take the rest home.
