DoS/DDoS attacks against servers is not violent in any way. I'd like to see your reasoning if you believe differently - perhaps I'm missing something, but to be honest I don't expect that to be the case.
Yea, nevermind the fact that said spokesperson listed the actual radioactivity in two separate valid units, and only added that last bit for the layperson.
I'd suggest doing so before boarding an airline. You can either ask for the number (might get you some looks or an enhanced patdown) or just look out the terminal window.
I've been using Comcast for about 6 months. I was horrified to find out when I moved here, I either had Comcast, Cox, AT&T, or Verizon...
Comcast seemed to be the lesser of the evils... but to be honest, I've had zero problems on the billing/customer service side, only occasional service interruptions (that were actually caused by someone backho'ing the metro fiber ring... this I know because I got to see the fallout as our engineers deal with it at work). Speeds are excellent.
It really makes you realize - you only ever hear the negatives. Why should someone go to a forum to talk about how good some service is? Nobody does that. Only the people who want to bitch.
See if you know anyone in the area that has Comcast, perhaps my luck is a local thing (but it -may- not be)

Excuse me? I'm not apologizing for anyone. All I'm stating is that if that's what it took to set her off into that kind of reaction, there's some deeper trauma involved. That kind of reaction is not healthy.
Keep your political crap to yourself or in political discussion, mine had none of it.
I don't agree with all this, but some people need to grow some fucking skin.
It's not like they blackjacked her and had a gangbang before stuffing her in the luggage compartment.
Seriously? She was shaking for several hours, and woke shaking the next day? Someone's got some deeper psychological issues in play than TSA "sexual assault"

Don't forget though, the craft is (supposedly) unmanned.

The onus on that is with the one controlling the attacking hosts, not the guy saying "hey, we should protest X!"
True, but the guy seems to believe that a DDoS is a violent act. That seems kind of odd, to me.
I should mention...

The Pirate Bay is not the Pirate Party is not "Anonymous" - I'm guessing, but I assume jdpars is talking about "Anonymous" - a multinational "mob."
Even if they could appeal to some government function, they can't - unless some global government came about and I missed the memo.

I can tell!
Last I checked, Timmy McVeigh and the UniBomber didn't (try to) blow themselves up for some ideological or religious calling.
There's a teensy tiny difference between... It may be small, but it is very important.
I'm pretty sure that this is because of the shape, not the capabilities.
I saw some political artwork recently that made the statement that a DSLR camera was not an RPG launcher.
I'm assuming this is because someone made a particularly stupid mistake of that kind, and this is a reaction to that.
(note the artists comments in the description indicated it was not some play on words (ie pen is mightier etc) but was literal)
I'd respond to you further, but It's hard to talk when my foot is lodged firmly in my mouth. ... color me an idiot.
True, it could have been worse. But I did not expect anything from any of them... Comcast not being horrid was a pleasant surprise.
The trouble is - Timothy McVeigh did what he did for his own reasons. Read up on the bombing some more.
It gets a lot more muddy when the attacks are directed/supported (directly or under-the-table) by another foreign power.

No it doesn't - you're reading that into it. A court order is NOT due process.

Er, what strange definition of "property" is that?
How do you own a right? That's even more nebulous than "IP!"
Well then, my mistake. ... better a bad source than no source though eh?
No, I don't... and I stated that in my post! The first six words!
Requoted for you:

I thought it was millimeter wave scanners that had been installed?
You'll notice that this spectra is on the opposite side of the visible spectra as X-Rays.
You might want to take your same advice.
Body scanners do not use X-Rays. Even if they did, the energy level is much much lower.
I don't agree with all this, but some people need to grow some fucking skin.

Wrong section... this should be in YRO. ... and because of this, we get to "Read" this article in the broken idle code. Yay.
