Given their posts are typically canned, their responses are typically unrelated to a post, and they never seem to be responding to what a poster actually typed, I'm going with no.
I thought you had posts of people complaining that megaupload.com, library.nu and ifile.it were not paying them after they uploaded illegal content for other people to download.
Why would you need 8 32bit values to record coordinates? 8 bits for Latitude, 8 bits for Longitude and a 16 bit identifier should be sufficient. If you consider an ISP typically stores the first 4 bits of every packet on a gigabit network, a 32 bit per second storage system is not much of a stretch. Cisco already has a product that wraps co-ords up in SNMP packets for wireless devices. That is in addition to all of the other netflow information.
Is there anyone here on Slashdot that's willing to admit they were the ones that uploaded a torrent of all of Whitney Houston's songs 30 minutes after hearing about Sony raising prices?
I wonder if their end goal is a fascist state, or if they're simply trying to preserve their economic advantage.
I'm sure they are simply a business making a living doing the bidding of whoever pays. You know. Like members of congress. I think it was Sam Houston that said in a letter to D.C., "Find me someone willing to clean up the streets and I'll find you someone willing to sell horse shit."
I was wondering how long their jail sentence would be while waiting for trial. At least one of them isn't doing time while the U.S. government finds there isn't sufficient evidence to imprison the prisoners. Why not have the trial, invite the accused to present evidence against the accusations, then put them in prison if found guilty? I thought we were trying to make the world more civilized.
Like Sony? You realize this is an international issue right? The "best" international way of effecting change is public opinion on the biggest communication system to date. If that causes people to pressure their legislators then I'm all for it.
If China developed a middle class, even if it is highly tariffed, a desire to have things from abroad would develop. Things like what Chinese Americans write home about.
There is a cell phone provider that doesn't rape its customers for personal information? At least Google isn't a multimedia company sniffing customer traffic for file sharing.
No. Just as I expected more than just Nike to investigate their sweatshops, I think all of their customers should pressure Foxconn to do right by their employees.
Making a thousand or two thousand RMB per month, having a decent bed to sleep in and 3 meals a day is a significant upgrade.
No actually it is not significant.
If Foxconn doesn't stay competitive in Shenzhen, somebody will open a factory in Vietnam where they don't even have to feed their staff and pretty soon all of those people in SZ that everyone was so worried about will be out of work and back to subsistence farming.
First, if they actually DID make a significant wage the economy would effect those still living on subsistence farming. Their income would allow small businesses to start. Then you would truely have a middle class. Second, increasing wages to merely 20% of the U.S. counter part would not effect the bottom line on any of the products produced in SZ. The cost of building a plant and moving production to another country would cost billions.
They get company provided housing (no, the housing isn't up to western standards, but it's significantly better then where they grew up, I PROMISE). They also get company provided food.
I don't know if you realize it; but, your describing a case where a company is killing economic opportunity. If they paid their workers and allowed them to buy/rent property other people woudl be able to make a living off some of the money made through all of this international trade. This is called economy building. This is what would bring opportunity to thousands of additional people. Keeping everything internal to one corporation allows that corporation to force its employees to become indentured. Quite simply indentured servitude.
It would be cheaper to ask one of the core openssl developers to "work on your code". None of the are in/from the U.S.

How is that for irony? Or you could do like Debian's install of Apache. By default the install doesn't enable the "default-ssl" config. The user simply creates a link and it is "installed". Of course the user should buy/create a legit cert and replace the "snakeoil" one first.
Slashdot Mirror
One downloaded song certainly can't be used by both partiesafter they separate.
The "after they separate" part is redundant. As we all know, only one person paying for a song that more than one person can hear is against the law.

What are the odds they are keeping the computer so he is motivated to get a job.
Like Amsterdam?

Just privatize it. There are a lot of drug dealers in the U.S. with enough experience to run it.

I hear most are donated by people who have read them. Do they not realize the economic devistation they are causing the public!?!
Do you have a link to someone complaining they are not getting paid for uploading?

I got $10 on it being robotraders.

I doubt it is much different than, "My nice car. Went to the street races. My nice girl friend likes my nice car and street races."

If the standard of living improves in China they will become consumers. You can sell things to consumers.

Yep. You can't even preconfigure a server with openssl and ssl enabled if it is sold outside of the U.S. Pretty funny huh?
Does this mean they will be easier to wash out of your clothes?
He said "actual creators".
