Would you feel differently if this was a bunch of email accounts that had a default password of "password" and they were all hijacked to send spam? Would it be ok to change the passwords on all the email accounts to something else immediately and then notifying the user after the fact?
I purchased a combination lock for my front door three years ago. Today, saw a note on my kitchen table from the locksmith. I said "I noticed that the lock I sold you three years ago still has the default combination on it. That's really insecure, so I changed it to your phone number. No need to thank me."
Did the locksmith do anything wrong by breaking into my house to change the combination on the lock?
And this is the same how? What if people from all over the world broke into that house without the owner knowing and setup a bunch of illegal businesses, made telephone calls to financial institutions to steal money, and mailed off letters using the home owner's letterhead and mailbox to lovely old retirees asking them to send money so that a nonexistent king in Africa can send them more nonexistent money? What if the townspeople were up in arms and instead of blaming the home owner, they blamed the locksmith instead? Once the locksmiths started taking the blame they started checking the locks they sell after the fact to prevent liability and save their good name. Now the townspeople are crying foul that the locksmiths are being proactive? Please tell me how that makes sense.

Without a serial port how will I access the console on my headless server if the network fails or it doesn't reboot cleanly in the event of a crash? I agree with all your other point though, but It might be a little soon to axe DVI though.
Yeah I'm surprised they haven't mentioned anything about it supporting either Verizon or AT&T's network. Maybe it is still coming...
From the summary
"...though it doesn't have quite as much connectivity as you might expect, with no 3G connection built in. (You'll have to make do with 802.11n, Bluetooth, and tethering.)"
My boss just tells me to come in late or not at all if I am called out. I have no issues with that and it works out well for me. Obviously not everyone has a boss like that and I know how lucky I am.
Reverse DNS will tell you the ISP (nslookup does just fine for that, thank you). It WON'T tell you what customer is running on that IP.
Negative, if the ISP allows the business or school to setup their own PTR records it will certainly tell you what business or school uses that IP. Most ISPs will even update the WHOIS information as well.
Also, most school systems lease their own IP blocks right from ARIN, not the ISP.
So they could have used reverse DNS and/or a WHOIS lookup

Not real hard. By the way, nslookup is deprecated. You should stop using it.
The phone worked really well which isn't really a suprise when you consider their reputation for well made hardware (mice, keyboard, etc) until the Xbox 360 came out years later. The voice recognition was amazing and it used the addressbook on my computer, supported multiple mailboxes, synced with the computer clock, etc. How was I to know that they would kill it by not supporting it with Windows 2k?
You might think that a proper telco like AT&T might want to make a good wired-phone infrastructure, to stop the flight of people to cell phones
You mean by offering VoIP and IPTV services over their wired-phone based internet connection? They are with their Lightspeed/Uverse service which I am really happy with.
Microsoft had a 900 MHz phone a little over 10 years ago that did this and it worked really well for me until it was no longer supported when Windows 2000 came out.
You can read about it here here.
I used to work as an email admin for a large ISP (over 5 million users) and SORBS was very receptive about removing false positive IPs from their list...if we paid them. We finally had to tell customers and outside users that complained to stop using SORBS and use other well run RBLs like Spamhaus.
I thought that a few years back there were computers along the quality lines of eMachines were almost "free", but you had to agree to watch pop up adds on the desktop. Wouldn't this count as prior art?
Don't worry, I wan't naive enough to think that there would be a lot of sympathy, especially here. While a price war benefits the consumer that already has broadband in the short term, it can have a negative effect in the long run on the already slow pace of providing broadband access to more people outside of the major metropolitan areas. That was the primary point I was trying to get across.
AT&T's U-verse service is 24 down and 2 up. They will sell you that extra bandwidth once they have the U-verse in your area. They just wont sell it to you as a pure data plan at this point.
The problem I have with allowing this competition is the competition (if it works like the old dial-up) will get to use the infrastructure for very little or no cost. With dial up, phone lines were everywhere. The system was built out. Now some switches and lines couldn't do full 56k but the platform was for the most part built out and somewhat paid for. Broadband is not available everywhere. The telcos and cable companies are still building out this access.
Now you want to let other companies come in and use what is still being built before the telcos and cable companies have recouped their expenses on building the platform out? If they open it up, fine, but they better allow for the competition to be charged enough for using the infrastructure so that the telco/cable companies can earn money back on their infrastructure investment to continue building it out.
Your arguments are so extremely one sided it isn't even funny. Japan's leadership were not going to give up and Emperor Hirohito was indecisive concerning what to do about the Potsdam Declaration. Even after the first bomb, Hirohito chose not to surrender. The Emperor's hands were drenched in the blood of his own people. Even in the end, he still demanded that he remain the leader of Japan before he agreed to surrender. Hirohito deserves the blame, the US gave him every chance to end things quietly.

Great, if they are like my Roomba they will bounce from one wall to another in the corner, scream loudly, and then shutdown.

VDSL can do much more than 7mbps here in the US for me.
