Instead of deleting nudes images of you based upon nude image of you, simply publish the nude image and you have nothing left to hide, unless of course you are a slut trying to pretend you are not one because you are working you next victim to clean out.

Export.gov requires safe harbor companies to self certify. - The companies state every year that they provide adequate protection.
Self-certifying to the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework will ensure that EU organizations know that your organization provides "adequate" privacy protection
That's all. No checks are made. No audit performed. There's noting to stop them lying, and companies HAVE lied - in their droves.

Cycling science has really come on in the past few years. I remember the bicycles of my youth resembling drainpipes welded together - heavy and clunky with all the response and verve of a coffee table.
Now I was somewhat suprised to find that more modern bikes are superb machines. Cheap. Reliable. Light and really really fun to ride.
The added benefit of being a) ecologically sustainable and b) acutually *quicker* in the city is just a bonus.....
This one goes out to all those car luvin' geeks. Borrow a high quality bike and see what the rest of us are a raving about.....Do this now.
You couldn't give away the B side without also giving away the A side too, whereas with this scheme they are literally giving you three times the license for the same price - bargain!
And besides, a digital copy is a VERY different thing to an analogue copy. [No degredation of signal, as many copies as you like and all as good as the original...]

Ethical Obligations
·
· Score: 5, Insightful
Sorry but this is not an ethical dilemma - You should always disclose to the customers that you perceive a theft to have taken place.
The company has a duty to it's customers information. Demonstrating that your company is ignoring its duty is *far* more damaging than any reports of breached systems.
Also, if everybody knows about an insecurity then the company will HAVE to take remedial action.
Sadly many executives do not see it this way and some slimeballs will even punish those employees who tattle. In the UK we have the whistleblowing act that is designed to prevent loss of employment due to actions in the interest of the public good. I wonder if our stateside companions are as well protected.....
There are two approaches that can be taken when restoring/rebuilding things
a) Make it exactly as it was
b) Make it better
Usually I'd say that you should always make it exactly as it was, but in this case lives would be at stake if you followed that approach - So there's an argument for at least *some* improvement.
The question is - how far should they go in their improvements...

It sounds as if Movie theatre companies are trying to legislate against competition from home theatre technology.
Wasn't it obvious that as soon as Home theatre technology became available then consumers would stop going to Movie theatres in favour of their home setups?
Also...
IANAL but I have looked into this issue before. If I buy a DVD then I have bought the right to play that DVD for my own entertainment.
You cannot put proviso's such as "Ahh but not in France" on that right. After all I've bought a legit copy through normal consumer channels [ie: Amazon].
It's just sour grapes on the French Movie theatres part. The European court will throw this out fairly rapidly.
I utterly agree. Bletchley park is a remarkable place and well worth a visit. If you manage to get Tony Sale to give you a tour then so much the better as the man really knows his stuff.
Bletchley Park is the location where computers were conceived, designed and first built. It is the place where Alan Turing started laying the foundations of the industry you now work in [OK,assumption], and until recently its cryptanalysis role was still a secret. That's remarkable considering the amount of people that worked there in that capacity during the war.
You really owe it to yourself to have a look. Apart from anything else it's tremendous fun!
Example: the Computer Conservation Society's display. A room filled with old computers. Some powered on, some not. From the earliest VAX through to the latest "built-to-the-hilt" PC. All of them "hands-on" and running funstuff.
Example of "first soundcard". A radio tuned to RF frequency of interference generated by PDP mainframe. Program running on mainframe designed to cause the processor to generate RF interference, by the use of tight loops etc.
Look. the place doesn't cost much to visit. It's fairly central within the UK, Just go OK?

OK - Lets forget that
- It was the first truly 3D 8 bit game
- It had 8 galaxies, each containing 256 solarsystems to explore
- It had missions, and police ships as well as pirates and traders, and the ability to be either
But fer Chrissakes it was coded into 18Kbytes of handcrafted 6502 machine code. That alone deserves a mention!$240 per webpage?
That's more than most web coders get per webpage. This could give rise to a new phenomina

If you still worry then you might as well cancel the insurance and save the money.

You see this is exactly what is needed - A changing music business model, combined with a tolerant "lets not be evil" policy
The trouble is that the business model of "Litigate until you show a profit" is somewhat self-perpetuating whereas this new one is risky...

This will just force the general populace to use strong crypto - a good step for freedom.
Public opinion always went along the lines of "If it is hard to eavesdrop, why use encryption."
Now it'll be "I bet the IRS is looking at my spending habits on a whim - Better encrypt huh?"

No - Not BS.
The size of the decompressor has to be included in the compression calcs.
In addition splitting on a predfined series of bytes is consdered to be a "trick" as it merely offloads the data to the filesystem involved.
