"MovieBeam's movies are encoded in the broadcast signal of PBS stations across the country. You're actually receiving MovieBeam's movies at this very moment -- but they're invisible unless you have the MovieBeam box."
The appeal mentions a specific "effective barrier":
"We conclude this case is distinguishable from Konop v.
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., 302 F.3d 868 (9th Cir. 2002), a Ninth Circuit case upon
which Snow relies heavily. In Konop, plaintiff Konop created a list of Hawaiian
Airlines employees who were eligible to access the website. Id. at 872. To gain
access, one had to enter an eligible employee's name, create a password, and click
"SUBMIT" indicating acceptance of the terms and conditions, which prohibited
users from disclosing the website's contents and prohibited viewing by Hawaiian
Airlines management. Id. at 872-73. In contrast, Snow alleged that registrants
needed only to create a password and acknowledge that they were not associated
with DirecTV or another prohibited entity. Konop's website, unlike Snow's,
required users wishing to view the electronic bulletin board's contents to have
knowledge (an eligible employee's name) that was not publicly available."
If he had done something similar (like a private message board for specific trusted members) he could have used the SCA. Internet makes people stupid. Just because you are discussing something in a big crowd, don't assume somebody-that-knows-somebody is not listening.
"and, of course, designers of security software would do well to think carefully about it..."
Well since you say they will think about it, you mean that they should not think about it. And since they shouldn't think about it, they will want to think about it. So when you say they would do well to think carefully about it, they will not be able to think about it since that would mean that they shouldn't think about it. And they wont.
Win2k is already starting to be looked at as a legacy system. It's not long before MS abandons support for both of those and forces people to upgrade and "pay for security". Just the kind of "leverage" to increase the profits.
I don't know what you are talking about, but I'm talking about the solar wind. And saying that there would be no impact to life without the magnetic field, even on orders of a few years, is pretty close to the kind of logic Bush uses to say there is no global warming.
"President George Bush did not deny the allegations in a television statement last night, but insisted that his administration had not broken any laws."
"It's getting innocent people out of prison and it's putting guilty people away."
DNA testing is not the panacea you say it is. Incompetence and corruption, as well as the ignorance of the accuracy of such methods that put innocent people in jail. With the complexity of DNA analysis it is easy to contaminate or otherwise distort the sample. So the lab that tested your DNA and got you convicted is not accredited? And you happen to be the 0.001% error in DNA testing? Tough. Don't have blood.
"The problem is, the Democrats are equally foul, corrupt, and incompetent. So who am I supposed to vote for?"
Somebody once said "Ask not who you can vote for, but who can vote for you" or something of that sort. Maybe I'm just idealistic, but I think almost all of the people in Congress want to do the "right thing." Even Hitler must have thought that it must be a good thing to rid the world of the jews. See that's the problem. Issues are so cliched and soundbyted(it is now) that behind the porkbarrels and cashbarrels the human issue is lost. Don't say the Democrats, don't say the Republicans. It's easy to hide in the Mob while the looting is going on. When the crackdown starts is where the real looters get caught with their pants down(quite literally sometimes). Which brings me to my point: YOU ALWAYS VOTE FOR WHO WILL KEEP THE GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABLE. DON'T EVER FORGET THAT.

Let your grandma loose on dapper and see if it's ready for desktop. (poor dapper)

This sounds like a fun PVR project.

It is a lameness filter.
Umm.. notice the big gaping hole around 16:00-17:00?
In other news, Pro-Computer Virus Software groups held a rally where they condemned Anti-Computer Virus Software as Pro-Social. More details at 10.
You won't like this.
Then they will just insert ads into those crap shows....not like it's not already happening.
Good, however, you forgot:
e) All of the above pay for the infrastructure.

You mean like this?
Dual core stove? Good choice!
"Don't visit any of these sites. Tapping into them could lead to unpleasant consequences. I only looked at them via the safety of RSA's computers."
...ah dammit..

Nixon would be proud.
I think the bigger issue is that there will be no magnetic field. You know, the thing that protects you from million mph plasma spewing off the sun.
"small businesses that are public"
Look! An Oxymoron!

Well this seems to have slipped past British ferocity.
Hear take any of those!
