Or the kid did a bit of research and figured out what would push Traynor's buttons. He doesn't necessarily have to believe it. He just has to know what will get someone's goat.
Yes, the hypocrisy of American broadcast media is never-ending.
Not the broadcast media, our feckless leaders and regulators. Broadcast would love to adopt standards common in the rest of the developed world (a flash of tit or occasional naughty word is OK), but the screaming whack-jobs raise too much of a ruckus. And our representatives cave in.
For example, they could both prohibit the use of personal personal networking accounts for business purposes, by making it a firing offense, and actively warn investors to contact them if any investment-related claims appear on the personal accounts of their employees.
That's the way its done now. If a trader can make a good case for using social media to stay in contact with customers, the company will set up a (FINRA compliant, monitored) account for their use. My broker has a company web page, cell phone and e-mail for exactly this reason.
Besides, do they really think managers are going to plow through each employee's social networking account traffic (on numerous different sites. Not everyone uses FB) to search for business transactions?
So, don't say "No". Just stand up and walk out. You're screwed anyway. So you might as well make a (non verbal) statement about how incredibly stupid this request is.
We can only hope that employers like this end up with entire staffs of brain-dead morons who will hand over passwords like this.
One of the major overhead costs of your residential service is (was) reading your meter by having someone drive around in a car, jump out at every few houses and write down the readings.
I guess utilities could offer an option to people who think they'll get hacked or the meters will make their junk fall off: Pay for a meter reader and they'll leave the old analog one on your house.
For the purpose of charging US military personnel with "communicating with the enemy", probably yes.
This is going to make a career in the US military look like a really bad idea. Its not just a matter of feeding a WikiLeaks supporter classified material (that has always been a violation of the law and military codes). You have to watch out who you speak with at your kid's little league game. In the end, they might have to lock down all of the military bases or have their personnel risk violating the "communicating" regulations.
Where can I buy a T-shirt that says, "I Am An Enemy of the State"?
It appears that this might be designed to prevent further leaks by military personnel.
Ftom TFA:
Declassified US Air Force counter-intelligence documents, released under US freedom-of-information laws, reveal that military personnel who contact WikiLeaks or WikiLeaks supporters may be at risk of being charged with "communicating with the enemy", a military crime that carries a maximum sentence of death.
They may never go after Assange. But the next Brad Manning may find him/herself swinging from the gallows.
... I take exception at Torvalds singling out Mormons as bat shit crazy. All religions are bat shit crazy. Each in their own very special way.
Airplane windows do open The ones in the cockpit, that is. So the important people can get out. All you SLF can just stand in line for the emergency exits. Sort of like how the economy works.
Get some McDonald's bags and food containers. Fill them with chopped liver, onions and spinach. Then tell the kids you are bringing home some "yummy McDonald's food". Do this a couple of times and they'll scream like hell every time you slow down in front of the golden arches.
Read the summary: The OP is working for the social science department of a university. So the answer to the question, "Would you run a business without a ledger?" might very well be, "What's a ledger?"

Kids. This is what happens when you forget your safe word.
Break for a commercial!

It's up to Congress to declare war
I don't remember them voting on going to war with WikiLeaks.
Or was it Australia? Ecuador?

That's not their job, is it? Wouldn't this be up to Congress, the courts, the State Department?
I guess its official. We are being run by a military junta.
Sorry. I had a mental picture of a robot sitting there with Zig Zag papers and a baggie.
I know this stuff makes you lazy, but come on folks .... getting a robot to roll them for you?

What a country!
Bitcoin. Don't worry. Its perfectly safe.

Well, I can still dream, can't I?
What kind of moron are you?
If you improve the CAD software now, you get the better chip now, and any chip you design in the future.
Any chip you design? Don't you mean any chip the Indian subcontractor designs with the CAD and rules you developed?
If he jumps out over Australia, won't he be going the wrong way?
