your example 1. is the thing I always find the most astounding that people don't seem to get, when you look at factions on either side, they really aren't dissimilar and the reality is no matter which faction ends up in control their it will be pretty much business as usual, maybe a different group being mistreated but the same old shit. The other reality is it will actually take someone like Assad to have any hope of maintaining control over the disparate groups. IT is a sad situation all around. Examples 2 and 3 won't go down well on this site as most here only like to view Russia as Evil and ignore the US involvement in the Ukraine/Crimea mess.
That ends up depending entirely on the wording of the legislation. mind you faked documents for imported used vehicles is hardly a new thing. It comes down to the usual thing of whether those implementing any laws/legislation have a good think about the ways the less scrupulous people will use to work around them.
If their is then it certainly hasn't been shown. It is this sort of shit that really irritates me. I can't see how they can possibly have established state sponsors attacks unless they have managed to catch and interrogate one of the hackers, maybe they have and just haven't told anyone? but I think it is more likely speculation that happens to conveniently fit politically with the current Anti Russian Sentiment.
In the example provided by the OP it was so that a new car could fraudulently be classified as a used/second hand car that would not fall under the new regulations if they were brought in.
While it is one of the more extreme examples Australia does have huge amounts of roads with very long distances between towns/fueling stops. Last year I drove up from Adelaide through cooper pedy to Uluru (constant stream of traffic, was surprised how busy that road is). it is common for hundreds of kilometres without refueling stops. even in my home town of Canberra a drive to Sydney and back (very common and I do that several time a month at least) is a 600km round trip. Australia is very unfriendly to limited range vehicles. But realistically that should become less of an issue in coming years as capacity and charge rates increase, or perhaps fuel cells.
This has been illegal in countries all over the world for decades. It is done to misrepresent the amount of kilometres a car has actually travelled (whether less or in this case more) and is consider, generally considering fraud and has large fines or even prison sentences depending on country.
The thousands of peers are fake. however I actually really like the fake torrents, they are braindead simple to spot as they are nearly always the same size and always have the same dumb arse comment on them and always have X thousand peers even though they were only uploaded 10 seconds ago and also uploaded in bulk by the same unverified user. What it does do for me though is gives me a nice list of all the upcoming movies that I need to search for.
maybe I missed it but I could not see anywhere in that document that shows they secretly scan email traffic? It seems to outline the legal process and means to access an account after law enforcement serve a warrant.
So does the law. If his lawyers claim that secondary infringement is not a criminal offense in the US is true, why is he being extradited to the US?
Money laundering. They tacked that on in hopes that Polish authorities don't really think too much about how receiving money isn't a crime if you weren't committing a crime. And he wasn't.
But...
... the alleged owner is charged with conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and two counts of criminal copyright infringement.
I haven't read Title 17 in a while, but last I checked, there's no such thing as "conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement." I'm sure Slashdot's legion of not-lawyers will correct me if I misremember. Mostly they're going to try to swing this on proving that he personally violated copyright in such a way as to fall afoul of the criminal provisions of US law for which Poland has an equivalent criminal offense, per the terms of the US/Polish extradition treaty of 1996. That treaty stipulates that only offenses which carry a maximum of penalty of more than a year in prison in both jurisdictions are extraditable. There is no US copyright infringement criminal penalty that includes jail time of any term. Remedies include injunction, impounding of infringing material (when it's physical), statutory fines, and/or actual monetary damages. That's it.
Addendum: Ok, I've read 17 U.S. Code 506 again. There's no such thing as conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. And Artem Vaulin is not extraditable.
Now we'll see just how anxious Polish authorities are to please the US, and just how much the law matters. Or not.
considering he is NOT the first person to be charged and successfully prosecuted for "conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement" I find it strange if there is no such law? quick search finds multiple people prosecuted for it and this https://www.law.cornell.edu/us... .
You sound like a butt hurt apple fanboy. how does pointing out to her how silly it is that she has hated the last 2 iphones to the point she threw the iPhone 6 against the wall at one stage (surprisingly it survived that) and yet wants to know when the next one is available so she can get away from the current turds and that makes me judgemental? I don't judge her, but I will point out such silliness as she will also do to me.
warning anecdote incoming. My wife and I were out yesterday, both my galaxy S7 and her IPhone 7 were in constant use for photos and videos (admittedly hers probably slightly more so). both started 100% charged, hers was dead flat in 5 hours, mine still had around 50% capacity. Now that isn't the surprising part, we have seen that fairly often and she carries an external battery to compensate, BUT her comment floored me "when is the next iPhone coming out, I need to upgrade for better battery" and she was dead serious. She had the same problem with the 6, she hates the new IOS upgrade and the quality of photos in low light and yet there is not even the slightest consideration that she could want anything but another iPhone.
That is just as bad. vaccination is a herd immunity thing, if you want to be part of the herd (society) then it needs to be a requirement for vaccination. There is always a legitimate percentage of the population that cannot be vaccinated due to health reasons and hence for vaccination to be effective everyone else that CAN be vaccinated should be. If you want choice then go live in a 3rd world country or buy your own island.
The only way you would know is if the state sponsoring them actually came clean and told you. I would seriously doubt even the hackers themselves would know who they are working for.
HP et al have always stated 3rd party replacement cartridges and refills are not supported so they aren't removing functionality that they claimed to have when sold. Having said that the whole printer market is broken where they sell printers at cost or a loss with the intent of making the money on the cartridges. Best answer is don't buy from HP, but then they pretty much all operate the same model.
There is nothing that says you must allow people to use devices within your premises. while the fees sound excessive and were probably just a money grab I can't see why you think PCC Part15 would apply. It is actually farely reasonable in a wifi area to restrict how many wifi access points people can turn on to prevent interference (that you must accept if it is there).
Reading through the incidents most of them are bugs or glitches with no malice intended, or at least no obvious malice with a little bit of neglect, all of which you could also claim about Mozilla browsers. Is there something not listed on the linked page to justify blocking them? By the same standard should users all be stopping using Mozilla browsers for the next 12 months till they are not the most insecure browser on the net?
The reality with financial transactions is some decisions are actually reversed or rolled back. What do you do when your ledger says a transaction occurred that actually didn't occur? I am not sure editing is right solution, but neither is simply putting in a second transaction crediting the money back as now you have 2 transactions that didn't occur in your ledger.

of course I was aiming at humour/sarcasm with https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Abort test! that the one they did at the start of last month?
300 years of human driving. hmmm that must make my mother just over 200 years old.
Yep Steve Jobs idiocy of following his heart and intuition instead of medical advise is why he is in a grave instead of on stage.

Neither does a Galaxy S7 so whats your point?

that is just fucking scary! I almost wish some of these diseases would come back doubly strong just to rid the world of the anti vaxxer fucktards.
No, but I would certainly not call it empty after someone else poured something into it just because it wasn't me.
The only way you would know is if the state sponsoring them actually came clean and told you. I would seriously doubt even the hackers themselves would know who they are working for.
I can't regulate your device, but I can say you may not use your device. subtle but important difference.
