Look, in the history of the Internet (and I was on ARPA*NET) there is no such thing as an impregnable web site.
There are many ways - brute force attacks are the easiest for botnets run by scriptkidlings, but reverse engineering attempts inside the structure, provider links thru points of contacts, poisoning DNS entries, the methods are literally in the thousands that could easily be used.
When faced with a heavily defended commercial gate, realize that communication methods exist for suppliers, partners, consumer communication, etc.
Heck, just spam with login capture for valid accounts will get you the ability to poison the customer experience if you target it for stress time running up to Christmas.

easier to program them to dial 1-xxx-yyy-zzzz numbers where the area code xxx is in an expensive Caribbean nation.
remember, kidlings, most fax machines dial a 9 for an outside line and have no trunk line access code limiter, so you can just cycle thru the password combos for authentication. Best if it's a 9,1,xxx,yyy,zzz string since the , is a longer wait than the - in dial strings.
While iPS, or pluripotent stem cells, are better in some ways, in that they are basically your same DNA bombarded into acting like stem cells (e.g. high plasticity), it still basically takes a pound (or 500g) of flesh to get enough. Kind of a Merchant of Venice approach.
Since many of us never had our spinal cells stored, it is better than nothing, but does NOT obviate the scientific research need for actual stem cells.
No matter how much you outlaw it in one country, the research will exist somewhere. When we cracked down on stem cell lines, lots of scientists I know went to Canada, China, Vietnam, Scotland, and other countries that were not filled with religious freaks.
They were specifically testing the MOVIE myth version of that one (from Lethal Weapon 2) and were attempting only to recreate it exactly as it was shown in that specific movie.
Movies rarely have a strong connection with reality.
When they tested the "myth" about surfboards going thru a windshield, they forgot it was originally a myth about Longboards and Waterskis in the 60s.
They used modern cars with curved and hardened glass windshields, not vertical 50s windshields that beach bums had, and didn't use either a 60s heavy longboard (which was a lot heavier and not as curved) or a 50s waterski (which used to have metal trim and were made out of heavier woods).
What reminded me of this was during the 80s I used to downhill ski on some old wood skis with metal trim, with leather boots, and they weren't as light or shaped like modern skis and could easily go thru windshields.
When testing any myth, you need to test the original myth, not the current version. Old cars didn't used to have seatbelts that people would use and were made out of heavier steel, for example.
In addition to still having the rest of your body subject to backscatter x-rays without your consent without a warrant, this method is still ineffective in doing what we claim to be doing in the first place.
Catching terrorist attacks.
Because even the TSA admits that 4 out of 5 attempts to get thru their security screening are totally successful.
EPIC FAIL!... now, back off and move to Russia if you want to touch my junk!
My point is that some of us don't even HAVE those alternatives available to us.
The argument might appear, on the surface, to make sense to someone who lives in the NorthEast where they can take a fast train from NYC to DC, but to many of us, these are not realistic options.
If I lived in Europe, it wouldn't be much of an inconvenience, as there are fast trains, so flying is not as important.
They're busy trying to create a branch for Open Office due to Sun/Oracle, but most of the documenters for the Open Source are sticking with the original suite for now.
In the end, it depends on whether or not anyone else cares. The Germans - or the Russians - are always free to dev their own stuff. If it's better, we'll migrate to that. If it's not, we won't.
Sorry, you attempted to broaden the subset to a superset.
I correctly pointed out that that is not possible.
Go back and retake Logic.
All your corporations preceded the Constitution and yet were never mentioned in it. Even though Wall Street existed in New Amsterdam before it became New York.
We now return you to your legal fiction which does not exist.

Never has been.
Never will be.

This totally cuts down on all the junk fax from timeshare companies.
Maybe they'll do something useful with the time they just gained?
All your processor is belong to Freedom.
I wouldn't trust either applications or user requests to install them either.
Filthy buggers.
They have small hands too - have you ever noticed that?
How the heck do I do that?
All your cloud is belong to countries with other legal systems and much laxer privacy laws.

I shall sneak up on this satellite with my trusty level 85 worgen rouge and kill it with my blad of deth.
It shall be an ex-satellite.
It shall be a pine tree in the Fords.
It shall have gone to join the Queue Indivisible.
And all that this rouge satellite shall have to say will be one thing:
"I'm feeling better. It's just a Fleischer wound!"
All your privacy is belong to people, and nothing Google says will change that basic fact in the Canadian Constitution.
Wash (scrub) your hands with ORDINARY soap and hot water.
If you can't do that, you can always use alcohol, which is really keen when you light your hands on fire briefly.
Anti-microbial and anti-bacterial soaps are almost always a BAD idea.

I need to fly out west later this year. Would I get in any kind of trouble if I just showed up in a speedo and flip flops?
Nah, not from my viewpoint.
Toss your overcoat on the scanner and away you go.
Damned straight.
Just because some sheep want to live in Fear, doesn't mean you get to tread all over my Fourth Amendment Constitutional RIGHTS!
Some of us live in the True West.
You try flying thousands of miles and then compare that to the 2 day train ride or the 2 day car ride to get there.
Maybe for you people back East it might be easy to use high speed rail, but we don't HAVE any here.
I just joined the Society for Steam-enabled Don't-touch-my-junk Flyers.
Be careful, those gears are sharp!
Amusingly, even Charles Krauthammer has written a column in the Washington Post about how it's a waste of time.
Probably because he's stuck in a wheelchair and nobody likes him.
My relatives came here by land bridge.
I don't think there are any to use right now.
Racing stripes do the same thing and are much prettier.
I find magnets work best of all.
Exactly.
I think that Linux will continue until a better Open Source OS is created by a group of individuals with a better method.
When that is, I'm not sure, but it probably won't happen until closer to 2020.
I originally wrote my own binary and hex code and processed registers directly - my feeling is that we're not at that point yet.
I'd ask the Germans.

What if it was a Four Loko induced attack?
