Easy words from the safety of your basement. War isn't a game, you go out there and you'll likely get a limb or two ripped off if you even survive. And don't expect a quick death, rolling around in dirt mixed with your own blood is more like it. If you believe a government is worth that suffering then you are hopelessly indoctrinated.
You can blame him for a lot but what Gizmodo did was plain stupid and they deserve punishment for that, including removing any preferential treatment they were previously getting.
Bots are computer programs, not persons. Licenses apply to persons, not their property. When you purchase a license the license is applied to you, the devices you use to exercise it aren't part of it (though the license can limit what you can do under it and that can include using certain devices).
Of course what's at stake is probably the subscription service (a separate contract), not the license. The same rules still apply though, the contract is between persons, not a person and a device.
Copyright law has a provision to allow installing software without needing a license for that, if there's still loopholes companies can use to make running a piece of software without a license a copyright violation the law is buggy and needs a patch.
They don't release numbers for that but estimates ran around 900$ production cost per unit on the PS3 at launch. I think MS also stated something about a loss during the early years of the 360.
Yes but you want to know how likely it is that it flags something as a false positive, that will depend on how much data you run through it, not how much of it is positive.
What do you get when you just order a beer in a bar where you live? Here in Germany that tends to mean what the closest brewery produces, unfortunately my town's brewery isn't terribly good. The neighboring city got some better breweries but unfortunately the bars in this town don't stock their products.
The mere presence of Bruce Schneier in the area is enough to harden Windows against any attacks. Except attacks performed by Bruce Schneier, of course.
Greek tragedies are based on mythology and morality, not science. Besides, this is a formula, not a magic future vision power. The formula can never account for all factors in a real situation, it can only give a useful approximation.
For magic future vision revealing the future would change it so you'd have to generate a series of predictions and hope it converges. Now what if you find a divergent series instead?
I wish we could FORCE them to watch what we "don't have to hide". Having each member of the govt forced through a tour of all internet shock sites would be an appropriate first step.
When Microsoft released the XBox they could have just made the OS and published a specification, pretty much like they did with the MSX, but nope, they realised it would be a disaster.
So they learned they couldn't just sell an MSX, they had to add a Box too...

The press is already segregated from the regular public, splitting the press into proper press and bloggers isn't a big stretch from there.

And why should they? Historically, collecting pictures and wireless transmissions in public has been legal.
Not in Germany. Google is large enough to be able to get legal advice for other countries before running a massive data collection operation there.
Yeah but "I was only doing my job" is not a valid defense in court.

This wouldn't be a full scale nuclear facility, more like one of the reactors used on ships and subs.
In Soviet Russia they would.

You do and I've got just the thing for you on sale NOW! I'll even give you an extra discount for one that includes your preferred typo!

I believe the rate of false positives is calculated against the total set of test samples, not the number of positives.
Prostitution is illegal where you live? Wow.
But if the porn sites are already blocked by the filter why would you need to block a site for listing them?

The internet would be so much better off if they really came for the caps lock keys...
Oil is also used as a basis for many different chemicals, not just for energy.
How about C14 for a start?

No, Emperor Palpatine got elected pope.
Real rules, not nebulous ones with a meaning that changes from day to day.
