The article claims that shadowcrew is out-on-bond, and that the case is not even over yet. These guys (shadowcrew) will probably get an attorney who will explain that the Feds are nothing but a bunch of 'blow-hard-bastards', and that they should take the case all the way to court(s).
If this a case the Feds are 'proud' to give to BusinessWeek, I'd hate to see the ones they are *not* so proud to show us.
After all, the Feds don't even know where to look for these people.
I mean, they claim that alot of the so-called 'bad-guys' are in foreign countries like Russia, when even I know that they are in a place called *CyberSpace*..:)

It's a known fact that there are high persentages of Gays (you know, queers, fags, homos) in both the library systems and Educational systems, at least here in the usa.
They are attempting to get this technology in place, so they can bring the same kind of 'justice' that 'straight' people did to them through-out the ages (ie jail, killings, mockings, etc).
While the political climate for them is the best that it has been in maybe 1000's of years, they know they must strike-while-the-iron-is-hot, before the straight people 'snap'-- and make them wish they were hiding back in their closets.
All this talk about fingerprint, coronary (eye prints) and especially DNA as a 'good' or nearly perfect way of identifying people, it is nothing but another ploy by the 'Beast' (machine, one government of the world, etc) to have a way of persecuting and prosecuting innocent people.
After all, as DNA becomes more intrenched as a 'perfect' way of 'proving' crimes, it will be used more and more to 'SET-UP' people by simply 'placing' some small amount of DNA of someone at a sceen of a crime. Collecing DNA is also one of the (if not 'thee') EASIEST ways to collect. All you need is something the person drank, ate, or was a part of the person, like hair, snot, or spit. So instead of 'perfect' way to solve crimes, this will be a perfect way for the pigs (cops, feds, armies) to 'commit crimes'.
As far as librarians 'needing' this type of technology to 'make sure' the right patron is checking out books, it is about the most lame excuse they could have come with. Just the opposite is what they (the dykes) should be promoting, being in the extremely important job of running 'OUR' libraries. The should be 'glad' people (homeless, theives, etc) are stealing the books (for whatever reason) because even if a 'little' benefit comes from this, it will make the world better.
I have personal knowlegde of these homosexuals, violating the rights of straight people by 'banning' them from libraries over something the straight person 'said', or when a straight male 'looked' at a potentional other 'dyke' and the librarian went into a (passive agressive) rage by calling the pigs(cops).
When they were the only game in town (basically) we didnt' know any better. but since linux has matured, there is NO excuss for people (IT) to not create the next big thing..
i wasn't part of the 'dot-coN' boom..directly, but i was involved (personally, on my own) in making a software program which was a niche for the automoble industry. i guess because so much $ was going for crap and fraudulant stuff then (around 1997) i could not get any funds to market or improve my code (it needed to taken from dos and put into windoze or linux).
even tho i did EVERYTHING right (had a business plan, put my own money and time into the project, had a product fully-functioning, and had actually paying customers and prospects for my creation) the bastard banks and vc's just laughted at me. i guess they thought having something 'legit' was rediculous.
anywaze, this didn't daunt me in thinking about and creating other projects that would be easier for me to 'sell' on my own, or with less help/money.
and more importantly.. it did not keep me from enjoying the joy & wonder of those 'early' InterNet experiences... you know, when we 'met that special' someone in cyberspace...and..and... had our heart broken by them:(
well, those thoughts and the ones like when I (we), for the first time, downloaded, installed, read the license agreement (not) and got RealPlayer working on my 486 sx 25 mhz with 8 megs!!
or the fulfillment, when i found and installed B32 for windoze 3.1 (you remember, the little patch/prog that aloud us to run 32 bit windoze programs (sorta;)..
or, remember:'Pc Speaker' program--- u remember, the program for 'tight-wades' like me that refused to put soundcards in their computers.... yearrrsss after they came out! It aloud you to play basically any & all audio through your little pc's speaker!
ahhhhnd the first time we got to dL our first cd of our favorite rock star in less than an hour!
well, just like 'those good ol daze', i believe (and try and work at) creating one of those exciting ideas. many of the old ideas need to be 're-dun' as '*The People Of World* wait... for someone(s) to do what the US government (shoulda, coulda, woulda), in putting down that great 'Technological Imeding Monster'---- m$.:)
uhh, ok. buhht i thought this waz the internet, you know, like the wild, wild west! maybe your the one who needs to bone-up on your schoolin, suhhnnnn ahhnd take a course on net-citizenery or somethin like that.;)
i'd rather have balz than a brain ANY day, coward.:)
ahhhnd.. it doesn't look like you have much of a brain either cuz the article sez;
Wal-Mart is offering its existing online DVD rental customers the chance to continue their subscriptions with Los Gatos-based Netflix at their current price for the next year.
The terms: 'existing..customers..' and '..current price for the next year..' doesn't sound or mean that walmart is getting outa the business immediately, or even for the next year at least... plenty of time for walfart to change their minds and make arswholes outa themselves once again in this particulare areana.
or, mabye u dint' rtfa. where, oh were does it say walmart 'bought' netflix! the article only says walmart is getting outa the business, and passing their current customers to netflix web-site.
in return, netflix must do the un-thinkable, and advertise for the commies at wel-fare-mart.
ok, i see that. i re-rtfa and it looks like walmaart is 'getting' outa the business.. but i still think since this 'deal' was done with walmart, netflix at least must feel they sold a pounda flesh now they have2 put up ads for the m$ of the retail business.:)
..Despite its size and merchandising savvy, Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart couldn't overcome Netflix's head start in the rapidly expanding niche of online DVD rentals...
yea, right.. walfarts 'savy'.. completly fostering 'slave labor' in a commie country (who is becoming amerika's 'loan-shark' by buying our 'debt'), and selling the cheap-garbage in their commie looking stores, paying 'commie' wages to it's mostly 'disabled' and 'poor' (on welfare) workers!!
it couldn't 'compete', because wel-fare-mart DOESN'T compete, it only knows how to put (good) competition outa business like the other great ameriCAN't -- m$.
i red the article, but... how is netflix suppose to make any money when the are FORCED (via contract/agreement) to advertise for walFart on their web site!
i'm sorry, but i'v NEVER seen where a company advertises DIRECTLY for their competitors for the EXACT same products that they are tyring to sell!!
sooo, there were NO crimes of this nature BEFORE the likes of FreeNet??
After all your saying people can't use other means like walking and talking in public (sidewalks, cafe's etc.) to plan or commit crimes?
i hope you talk like this normally so someone will put you away soon.:)
and people are fed up with their arrogance. they are involved in more crimes against citizens, then averages citizens commit crimes.
sooo, when ever some blows-a-cop-away, it warms my heart because that is one less 'terrorist' The People' have to worry about.
The governments of the world, including people-like-you (probably a cop), will need to be dealt with soon, or will all go up in a nuclear war, when some criminal like you decides that they can't force 'their-brand-of-freedom' on everyone else any more.
The problem I've had in using Freenet is that they are open to any content.
What this says to me is, "If you want to share terrorist information or child porn, you are welcome here."
funny because 'what is says to me is'.. oh good, an area where i can congrigate with those 'like me', so that we can try and stop 'those'(ie people like-you) who want to stop' me from talking privetly!!
your answer reveals ALOT about how you think (after all you said; "What this says to me.."). ie, you have kiddie porn and terrorism on your mind alot (which is quite unnatural, and makes you suppicious).
I believe most people don't think of negative thoughts natuarally when discussing this subject, they are more interested in what the *good* is, and how by *discussing* this good (privetly, so as to not 'tip-their-hand) the *good* will defeat the evil eventually.
The old saying: "take away their guns and only the government (ie criminals) will have them" holds true with anonymouty as well.
As a general rule of thumb, provoking a government will cause it to crack down and decrease liberty.
Ahhhhnd as a 'general-rule-of-thumb', the *more* people *provoke* a government, by expressing their freedoms, the more the government either backs down or gets their sculls crushed!! (see recent events in Haiti & currently in Iraqi when The People *well-up*).
If ever it should work, freenet will be banned in the West and in the Rest. Once it is banned, few people will risk running it, and those who depend on it for anything important will be caught, meanwhile, the rest of us will have lost the right to use such technology for legitimate purposes.
The only way it *wouldn't* work is if people 'obeyed' the ban by the governments. Or would you like to explain to everyone just *how* the big-bad-governments are going to stop us (6.5 billion and counting)?? The criminals (ie the governments), at least in the usa, originally didn't plan for the InterNet to get into the hands of White Hat Hackers---- WELL TOOOO BAHHHD!!
You (and people 'like you') need to stop believing what you read and see in 'The Media'-- about the government being a seperate entity from the people that is 'out to get them', and realize that it is quite 'the other way around'. Spend some time checking out how people 'really think & believe'.
boy, would i like to see whats in your closet..

The only valid reason someone needs to spread information in a completely ananymous way like that is to escape government control where the government does not allow basic free speech rights.
Based on your beliefs, we (The Peopele) can NEVER conspire to bring justice to this governement (because the government 'won't allow it').
Many responces above explained that the purpose of ananymous speech is more than just for criminal intent. Maybe you'll understand them better is you go try telling a cop, judge or juries they can't have private conversations.. or better yet, maybe we can go a step further into 1984 with a camera and mike into the bedrooms (of all the so-called protector of children) to see what their 'up to'. I'v ALWAYS been suspious of people who are 'obsessed with protecting children'. It makes you wonder what they are hiding.
I'll tolerate or ignore whatever speech you want to give, but when you break the law with speech (by planning a crime or leaking classified government documents or slandering someone), I want the police to hold you accountable.
So you would arbitrarely allow this even tho 'The Law' is the most 'subjective' thing on earth (ie it is constantly being contested, changed, removed-retroactively, and just plan 'ignored' because it is either a 'bad law' or *can't* be applied'.
do like doc implied.. and stand up, en-mass to the few scumbags that are (attempting) to take away their freedoms.
Although it sounds easier said than done.. what they already are trying to do-- in finding ways to speak freely on the net, is only leading the masses into further enslavement.
By trying to 'hide everything' and acting like they are doing something wrong (which they are.. legally.. at least in the eyes of the opressive leaders), they (disidents) are ALLOWING the leaders to crush their ability to speak.
soooo, instead of going through all the trouble (and risk) of 'speaking ones mind' over the net (secretly).. why not 'cooperate' in large numbers, which will turn the tables on the scumbags, when they see; 'The People' rising up in unison (power) to topple the bad leaders.
after all, the farther you go down the 'leadership' pole, the closer the (army personal, etc) will be to the 'common man', which is good. The ONLY way (like doc implies) to have and keep 'Freedom of Speech', is to CONTINUE to exercise ones ability to do it NO MATTER what!! Guns will not grant everyones right to speak (not even the ones with guns, because someone always has a 'bigger gun')
if we start to 'sneek around', we will eventualy believe the bad-guys, and decide that it is not worth it any longer to try and speak freely (publicly).:(
you shudda been given alot more points.. but don't feel bad, i noticed alot of people aren't getting any mode points after putting alot of effort into their postings..
if u really are a fed, then i suggest you prepare for a different job and otherwise cya.. cuz 'we' (ie they, ur bosses) can't have our men helping individuals gain acess to tools for 'freedom's' sake, now can we;)
