In your example, should any general used cars dealership be prevented from buying the keywords Toyota, Mazda, Mercedes etc. just because they're not an official affiliate of said companies?
You seem to be under the impression that the US has good download speeds. Have you not been reading about all the throttling going on, not to mention the semi-rural areas that can't even get ISDN connections, let alone DSL or cable?
After seeing some of the flamefests that can involve on, for instance, forums, with even the moderators of said forum joining in, I'd be quite glad to know that they can't tell who I am IRL. One forum I used to frequent mandated verification of your name, address, age, and social security number - I never looked back when I told them to politely traverse and auto-copulate.
Are you insane? Do you have any idea how dangerous those are? What if you were to try to eat it? You might choke! Clearly it needs to be labeled as hazardous to your health if consumed.
Which, in fact, is a complete mock-up of how things work.
Are you going to stop going on ski trips because you can visit an ice skating rink? Are you going to stop taking a week at Mallorca because you can go to the solarium?
As he says, horse racing is a Key Tourism Industry. People go to WATCH, to experience it. Being able to place bets on the net is not going to satisfy that desire. It's like saying, "Oh, I got this CD of my favorite band, so now I don't have to go to their concert."
It just doesn't work that way. If something attracts people, it'll attract people, end of story.
I fail to see where the conflict of interest is here. So he likes porn. Yeah, he's MALE.
What would be the 'right' judge to preside over this case? A known prude who prays to God at least seven times a week and has publically stated that pornography is a sin?
So he has a life outside the court room. Big fucking deal. There's no money involved in it for him, I'm sure, and he probably doesn't know the defendant either. Where is the conflict of interest?!

In Soviet Russia, Ray loves Slashdot!
How about a white lab coated in scientist? That's what'll happen if this stuff blows up, anyway.

She obviously knows a lot about what it's like to go down. ;-)
Oh, but blind people can go buy the over-priced Braille version at the specialized brick-and-mortar store. Think of the 20th century style stores!
Some people in the stone age were probably killed for drawing risque and 'dangerous' pictures on the walls of a cave.

"causes to be transmitted" is a nice blanket term a lawyer can use to argue that by sending the GET request to the server, you've broken the law.
In order to be a real patent troll, you need to sue anyone infringing on your patent.
And let's get real here, who is going to infringe on the patent of being a slashdotter AND getting laid?
And you can guarantee that NO manufacturer wants people to know that anyone can just open up your system via a backdoor at anytime.
Well, it's working great for Microsoft, isn't it?
"You have chosen to turn 'FUCK' off. Here's a picture of your grandparents having bondage sex."
How could he? We all know that there is no spoon!
So, the third law says that speedy thing goes in, speedy thing comes out?
How did you fail THIS badly?
Holeholeahole? What does that mean?
Discworld has geek chicks in it?

Maybe this'll show them what needs to be changed in the system. Also, err, first post? How?

Funny you should mention it, as we actually are dealing with a massive strike here in Denmark at the moment.
Wouldn't that be more like, "Do not go to heaven. Do not collect 72 virgins."?
Well, you lose the ability of speech if you're attracted to her, right? Myth confirmed!
