What's wrong with it? The addresses are all major data centers / carrier hotels, so it's not really a surprise that they are located there. It's not like you can just walk into any of these and get access to the servers.
I suppose that if you were sniffing such a network (unencryted of course) you could easily get the hardware MAC address from an e-mail,
It's a lot simpler than that. If you can already sniff the network in the first place, why go to all the trouble of getting the MAC address out of an email message-id when you can simply look at the ethernet header itself which contains the MAC address!?
there are about 8 songs purchased per second (as shown in this graph), and the counter is updated only once every few minutes, so it's quite hard to predict it with any kind of useful accuracy.
Is it really so bad that users of broadband like to utilize as much of the pipe as they are appropriated?
the point is that the price for residential broadband (~ $35 a month) is already based on the assumption that you will only use a fraction of the bandwindth available. only now are they realizing that their business model was flawed to begin with if people actually use their connection.
Personally, I would prefer a separate PDA and phone, but they should be tightly integrated (using Bluetooth or similar). The possibilities are essentially the same as with a combined device (browse the web, caller ID, call from PDA, etc.), but to me having two separate devices with specific functions seems a lot more convenient. --
if I do a search for buying Saabs online, I will get hits that look like the page was just that, but in reality it is some sort of company that makes it look like a site has content like that, then when I click on it, it sends me to something unrelated... like a gambling site.
Even then the cacheing function is useful, as it will show you the page exactly as the googlebot saw it, and so you can see why it's being indexed this way.
Unless you patch your kernel, Linux uses ports 61000 and up as the source port for masqueraded connections. A lot of traffic originating from that port range makes it at least suspicious that masquerading is used, but indeed they can never be 100% certain.

In rights, it assumes a corporation has the same constitutional rights as a person.
So after a corporation has been in business for 18 years, it can vote and join the army?
They are probably referring to the Live 8 opening song, performed by Paul Mccartney and U2.

why not use port 587, which is specifically intended for this purpose?
It's the General Public License, not GNU Public License.

the counter is updated every 5 minutes. i created a page showing a graph of the number of songs sold and the rate of sales.
To each party you pretend to be the other party and just relay the messages.
the whole point of quantum cryptography is that a man-in-the-middle attack like that is fundamentally impossible.

roughly 30 percent of the available ipv4 space has not been allocated to anyone yet. every now and then, iana allocates a /8 block to apnic. so even if apnic is running out of space in the currently assigned addresses, there is still quite a lot of space available that could be allocated to them.
will the first song they release be called sosumi?

Chapter 11, however - this is what I presume they're using the European equivalent of -
nope, they did that last week already. today they filed for bankruptcy.
find a friend who has a colocated server or dsl connection.
then use that machine as a web proxy, or set up an ipsec tunnel to that machine and route your port 80 traffic through that tunnel.
802.3 is fixed ethernet, see this page.
Red Hat did not ship a development kernel, they shipped a gcc development snapshot.

I still think they should have called it herfstvrucht, angstschreeuw or koeieuier, like they propose here

which isn't such a bad idea if you use the slram patch on a computer where not all RAM is cached (e.g., some Pentium boards with more than 64M)

You can use Google's cache feature to look at pages that have disappeared or have changed since they were indexed.

they have absolutely no right to [...] make business contracts with my ISP, my ISP's ISP, phone companies, etc.
Of course, they have every right to make such contracts. Just as you are free to choose a different ISP.

They can't possibly detect ip-masq.

Perhaps something like Bruce Schneier's Street Performer Protocol would work for sites like this?
