first of all, substitute "car" for "computer" and "roads" for "wifi" and see if you still agree that we shouldn't have programs that don't have equal value to all taxpayers.
secondly, if you don't have enough money to buy a computer, odds are you aren't a major contributor to your area's tax revenue. otoh, people that don't use a computer because they don't like them come in all shapes and sizes
"Also if they were a confided in letter, why not just delete them after you are done with them? Or save them someplace and delete them off the yahoo server?"
maybe he thought that yahoo wouldn't give them out without his permission? you could just have easily asked "if he wanted his parents to read his emails in case of death, why didn't he give them his password or put it into a lockbox?"
yahoo has no way of determining on an individual basis what the person would have wanted, so they're making a universal rule.
because the level of oversight required to filter out all such materials (as well as those that are objectionable to other countries who jump in on this when they cave) would be cost-prohibitive?
i've used Barracuda, but haven't administered it, so i'm only able to see part of the setup.
Barracuda has a web interface to view all messages that are blocked and to change your settings (whitelist/blacklist/spam filtering/quarantining). blocking happens only if a message is Quarantined for virus contents and Quarantining is enabled by the user (if it's disabled you receive the messages with a [QURA] notification in the subject), or if it is spam email and spam filtering is enabled by the user. lower probability spam matches are still delivered but have a [BULK] added to the subject line so that you can use your email client to file them if you choose to.
the purpose of a spam filter is to make your job of filtering easier, because even though you've a better eye for spam it takes a lot of time to sort through the heaps of spam emails that most of us get daily

i'm glad that we can follow up the momentum of this story and take advantage of their link to "Compare prices on Spam Software"
the funny part is that both Beta and Apple are considered by many to be a technically superior format that lost out to a brutal competitor
"ever seen a bad slashdot book review?" it depends if by "bad" you mean "poorly written"

"Nice Idea, but I think the calendar printing lobby would work against the adoption of C&T. After all, you'd only have to buy one planning calendar."
maybe if you never wrote in it, or maybe we could get the white-out lobby to push for this change
the very, very small thing he is talking about is the sizes of the atom and electron
