I'm all for it for a variety of reasons not even listed, the first thing you have to do is get people to stop watching TV.
See what you're up against? Not Hollywood, Hollywood wouldn't even exist except for the masses that need to be endlessly entertained and at this point the last 2 generations were raised by TV so that's what you're really up against, a fundamental aspect of everyones lives.
And for every act like that they will say "see we told you the Internet is out of control" remember who makes the laws a bunch of stupid old white men that still can't figure out how to set the time on their VCR's, and more telling still use VCR's.
Flaccid response as none of those web sites listed are critical merely informational, all this does is add fuel to the FED fire of erasing the Internet as it currently exist.
However the claim is that the Lsquared signals are a "billion times greater in strength" than GPS, and I know my modern GPS unit seems to have trouble locking on at times. http://www.insidegnss.com/node/2498
Lsquared seems like a great opportunity for rural areas to get high-speed Internet and maybe it's time we updated our GPS satellites again, but from my perspective after what I have read from multiple sources I am going to go with Light squared will cause issues with commercial GPS and the motivation on Lsquared's part is being the only provider in the area, charging a higher fee for access, and not having to lay cable and other infrastructure thereby reducing deployment and maintenance cost, in other words a large profit margin, and the only problem is they have to destroy the GPS infrastructure already in place.
If a 19 year old kid stealing credit cards and DOSing a web site is war then I call hyperbole!!! It's an inconvenience at worst, but I do like the Israeli kid trying to take high moral ground by releasing the CC's but not enough info to actually use them. That won't last.
I doubt anything would come of their having nukes but as long as we are keeping Iran from them Pakistan shouldn't have them either, that state is for more unstable than Iran.
Why would Iran nuke Israel? Israel has plenty of their own nukes any attack of that sort would be met by unimaginable force from the Israeli's and Iran's leaders know this. All that crap you think Iran's leaders said is just rhetoric, their leaders are no more suicidal than any other as the one thing leaders want more than anything else is to continue leading.
"But is what we are doing truly self-defense?'" Hard to say, you would first have to agree that the jihadist were/are a real threat to start with, since American policy is tied to Israel it seems we have created a self feeding loop, Israel wants security but has inflamed tensions in the ME with land grabs and generally dysfunctional dealings with Palestine/Iran, we need ME oil but also are required to support Israel (at least from a political perspective), the ME wants American money for their oil but also has no fondness for Israel, the resulting "wars" generate huge profit for arms dealers and the American military-industrial complex. So I don't see it as "self defense" but rather business as usual grown from years of strife and hatred with all the usual suspects (Arms Dealers, Despots, etc) profiting along the way. Consider that al Qaeda has been marginalized on the battle field and is struggling to remain relevant ideologically, and you see the focus has shifted to grassroots efforts of orbital jihadist groups no longer truly aligned with al Qaeda but allies none the less, now consider what fuels these groups, how the grow their "brand" as it were, by pointing out the Israel/American connection and our use of high-tech weaponry against them, every time a drone takes out a wedding party (1 example) or an Apache chopper shoots up children the grassroots jihadist get a surge in membership.
Every violent act on our part is an addition to their propaganda machine.
It's a complex circle jerk, I see answers but none that will ever get taken seriously, for example drop the price of oil to $25 a barrel and Iran can no longer fund their atomic agenda, in addition moderating Israeli influence in the US government and allowing them to stand on their own with out "Big Brother USA" would create a paradigm shift in their behavior towards their neighbors and free us of the majority of our security concerns. Neither of these methods will ever be taken seriously and business will continue "as usual" meaning grassroots terror cells will always be a low level threat to the USA and will allow the continuation of stripping our rights and dismantling our Constitution, and "The Powers That Be" wouldn't have it any other way, they now have the perfect formula for eternal war and the resulting profits made by war.
Since they came at it with 2 bills all SOPA (which received the most publicity) ever was is a sacrificial lamb, meant to destroyed to appease the public and let PIPA through, and PIPA (arguably the worse of the 2 bills) has to be taken down as well so no time to rest on laurels continue the good fight.
I think I agree with you, it is foolish to create noise, additionally, even the morons in the article you posted are capable of shooting a gun or perhaps even successfully blowing something up.
I've had my share of fools moments almost always attributed to my frustration getting the better of me. I apologize for my surly tone.
This would be one way to approach it, otherwise (and still likely) he will be murdered and the information suppressed. Imagine a World where we didn't need oil...
Regardless of whether or not we obfuscate their attempts at monitoring social sites these attacks are coming anyway, you sir are the tool for actually thinking anyone serious about attacking would use Facebook to announce it. This "monitoring" social sites is an attempt at disrupting things like OWS and other legit protest before they gain traction not actual terrorist, as if Timothy McVeigh would have stated his intentions on Facebook, Christ there's one like you born every minute much to my dismay.
Back in the day (90's) we heard about Echelon and that there were ~50 trigger words that set it to recording, well whether that is true or not the entire ISP (~200 people) I worked for at the time added these 50 words as a sig to each and every email. Might I suggest we crowd source spoofing anti US articles to give DHS something to think about?
Hollywood's propaganda is pro war/pro Irrael no one in power cares about the "American dream? or the USA/Constitution, that's a magic phrase the use to make you feel good.
We aren't headed for it it has always been this way, The Power That Be can not have open and easy communication for the masses, it thwarts what they want to do which is control and manipulate, so the Internet is the first things that I can think of where anyone can have a webpage and share their thoughts and experiences with everyone in the World.

A lobotomy and shopping spree at...you guessed it!!! Walmart.
Are you listening? This is your satellite idea come to fruition.

The spectrum bleeds so there will be interference, though it remains to be seen how much.
Falcone is certainly paying fof his chance to get Light squared going.

Personally I think the term "war" is over used.

I have my share of spelling and grammar mistakes but using "loose" for "lose" is a pet peeve of mine, write it off any way you choose.
You know where I'm at? Yeah behind the preposition at, which is something up with I will not put.
"loose"
Well lets be "conservative" and keep the Internet the way it is.
Irrael = Israel.
Hollywood's propaganda is pro war/pro Irrael no one in power cares about the "American dream? or the USA/Constitution, that's a magic phrase the use to make you feel good.
Wow, terribly written but I hope you get my drift there.

Not even books did that.
