Basically it is about going back to what they are used to do in the past. Newspapers bought their content from companies like Reuters, so they would love to continue to do so and 'own' the news. Do not forget that a newspapers, like television, now is a way of selling advertisement space. The public is not the customer, the advertisers are.
What is much more worrying is that personal data can be sold at all. OK, so here people have given their details voluntarily. Often that is not a reasonable option, except for doing everything in cash.
What should happen is that personal data can NEVER be sold.
Obviously that can cause problems. What if the company is sold as a whole? What if the company is ripped apart by its new owner and they sell everything, except the data? I would think that if it is used to continue a service or contract I previously had, then you can use that. The moment you do not provide me any service, the personal data must be 'given back' or destroyed, so it is not longer usable by the company.
Desrtuction of the data should be done in, say, one year, so the company can still try to convince you to re-start the service.
This must be obviously regulated in some way, but the principal should be that the data belongs to the person, not to the company who stores that data. You can use that data for a specific reason and nothing else.
In other words, privacy laws must become much more pointed towards the people and away from the companies.
I am right handed and sometimes hold my phone to my left ear, so my right hand can be occupied in another way. Wait, that sounds gross. Uh, I was, uh, I was talking about writing things down. HONESTLY!
I want stock in his company.And that will probably be the reason why it will fail if there is a company that does that. The idea was about doing something without waste. The comapny will be there to make money. Give the idea to the world and let EVERYBODY play with it. Universities in Africa, Asia and the rest can then work out a working model. Please let not one company take away this idea and then patent it into oblivion.
If I actually WANT a kid to eat ice cream, he isn't going to want any. If I WANT him to eat candy, he's going to be suspicious. Ask any parent.Just tell them they are not allowed to play with it from 14:00 to 18:00.
If he does the `rm -rf/` I could not care less. It is when he becomes a spam proxy that I have problems.
Same goes with the car. If he hits a tree, I do not care. If he moves all over the road and I have to evade him and I then hit somebody else, he does not care, but two other unrelated people are crippled for life.
They should take an example of the USofA where during 8 years the government could do anything without any serious investigation from the side of the media.

Yes we did. The better you can hold your glass, the more alcohol you are able to drink. The more alcohol you drink, the more likely you are to end up with some ugly girl who also was able to drink herself unconscious.
Now imagine that you would drop your glass before you are at that point. You would never be drunk enough to go with THAT girl and she won't go home with YOU.
Although even in the past I would never have bothered people telling them what I was doing at what moment. If you wanted to know you could ask (afterwards) and then I could tell you or not, depending who you were. Also I do not tend to call people I have never met in person 'friends' and even many people I did meet IRL are often more "acquaintances" then friends.
What I would be doing when would be nobodies business. That is what we called "privacy". With shows like "Big Brother", "The Osbournes", "The apprentice" and all that kind of shows where we must see what others are doing. Also with all the camera's and constant surveillance, many people think that the only thing what privacy is, is what you do at home behind closed curtains.
The next step will be that closing those curtains means you have something to hide.
Big Brother (as in the book) is not forced upon us, apparently we are begging for it. Probably because it give the false presence of safety and belonging. Twitter is just another stone in the wall.
That could never happen to where I work. We use the default password on the PBX, but it is protected by a Cisco router. Encrypted password, so it can never be found out. In fact I am so sure of that that I just post it here: 095c4f1a0a1218000f. Obviously you need the address as well. That is http://hackme.houghi.org/
Buy a CD and you have 1 hour of music. Buy a DVD and you have more then one hour of film or even music AND you have images that go with it. Not only sound. A game adds interaction to that as well.
The few times I buy music, I buy a DVD version. e.g. when buying the Guano Apes DVD, it contained the live version, all their clips AND the previous album. This was for the same price as the CD.
Also people still have only 100% they can spend, just as they used to in the good old days. I had to spend on rent, food, fixed phonebill and such. The rest I could spend on drinks and music. No VCR at that time.
Now a person in the same situation who spends an equal amount on drinks will have about the same percentage that I spend on music, but has to spend it not only on music, but also on his movies and games. Oh and let us not forget his internet and such.
Now as there is not enough time there, the place where money is taken away from is from the drinks. I live in a Student city and you can clearly see that cafe's and pubs are less busy then they used to be. This means less money for the local economy as these are eitehr privatly owned or owned by the brewery and I live in the hometown of the largest brewery company in the world, Leuven.
Installation or re-installation is the same situation.
There are two options. The first is that you have a pre-installed system with some browser on it. Then there will be an installation CD or DVD (that you might need to burn yourself first in some cases). There will most likely be a browser on that.
A boxed set or a system without a browser. You will need to get the browser from somewhere else. Either with a USB key or a CD or whatever. Just like in the time when you needed something like Winsock, because it wasn't on 3.1
But I am sure that pre-installed systems will still have some browser on it. Could just be that it is Firefox or Opera instead of IE.
It always reminds me of a friend who tells he saved 1EUR by running after the bus instead of taking it. I always say he is an idiot and he should run after a taxi. That way he would save much more.

Having more then one PC does not mean I have more then one home directory. I just use NFS.
Nobody could be against it. It is either Darwinism or Gods will.

I always had my doubts if these things worked, but with your posting I understand that the pills do work, so now I am going to order them.
As you have written it on /., it must be true.
Jeez, don't they read the papers or watch it on tv? Oh, wait.
They should take an example of the USofA where during 8 years the government could do anything without any serious investigation from the side of the media.
I also would think that a SSN is a Number for your Social Security. It should be used only for that. No excuses, no exception.
Why the cheap phone for communications if you have a netbook.
1) Take pictures with phone or camera
2) Put the (micro)SD from the camera in the netbook.
No need for a second phone.
The same goes for Google where the default is to use moderate filtering.

Without fingerprints, we would be extinct by now.
Wrong, you decide to give it to Bill. I decide to give it to Linus and he asks for a lot less.
OK, Now I know for sure I am getting old.

There are exploding batteries, so investing in that would solve this issue.
