...enrich NASA research by reaching new communities. Help address traditional technology development obstacles...
But the overview states that only US citizens who are not federal employees can enter. It is certainly limiting its goals of reaching new communities to enrich their research and only disadvantages NASA since they will be restricting themselves against potentially landmark innovations in science from other areas of the world.
Innovations which address obstacles which have stood in the way of technological development in science would be of highest priority, were I to enter. Barriers in science such as the claim that NASA don't have the technology to fit a de-orbit module onto the Hubble so that it's eventual re-entry into earth doesn't threaten human lives, could be avoided. It would save a lot of time, money and other valuable resources including human labour if future obstacles were addressed in the design of new scientific material, instead of attempting to tackle the problem when its too late.
An estimated two-thirds of Estonia is now covered by wireless hotspots...
As convenient wi-fi technology can be and the benefits of increased accessibility in communication, such developments would probably see some major changes in social values and priorities.
The world nowadays relies on the internet so heavily, it would be hard to imagine life without it. It may well reach a point when internet communication replaces human face to face contact , relationships are maintained without the need for going out and sending letters via snail mail would cease as a form of communication altogether.
The perpetrator cannot be held liable for the deaths because the element of causation isn't there. To be held accountable, the criminal act must have been the direct cause for the deaths and sadly, the virus would not be ultimately responsible for that.
If/when the perpetrator is caught, it would be interesting to see how the law and the international community handles the situation as it obviously would have made a huge impact to businesses and individuals alike. The case would probably set a precedent in itself.

Do you feel events such as InstallFest have contributed positively to the growing awareness of computer technology in non-western countries?
