Yeah, because I'm sure everyone takes PIN security seriously and doesn't use an easily memorized pattern. Nobody I know would ever do that at the expense of their own security.
Isn't that a bit like saying "It's okay that the deadbolt can be smashed with your pinky, I still have a screen door!"?

See that bit about patents? Microsoft is practically screaming "We will enforce our patents once you've been using this for 4 years!"
The original analogy was trying to say "guns have a legitimate use just like perl does" not "guns are made of flowers and rainbows just like perl". If someone is breaking into my house, I should be allowed to shoot them if they don't leave when I tell them to.
Wow. What a stupid article. Art 'met the digital age' a REALLY long time ago.
Wireless technology, often known as WiFi, allows users to access the Internet with a wireless card -- often built into the computer -- that eliminates the need for cables or wires to connect online.
If you can put in "boot straps into various areas" you may as well just use a boot cd. Also, how do you plan on causing the system to overheat over the network? That's hard to do with mondern systems.
Physical access trumps all security. Everyone knows this. This really isn't news, just an interesting new exploit that happens to affect a lot of... systems that are already vulnerable from the same people in the same situation.

And the solution is to do most of the stuff you already did over again to... increase productivity?

I didn't know god spoke legalese. I guess our concept of lawyers as the spawn of satan will have to go.
Many vegetarians don't eat meat because of the suffering involved for the animals. Do you think the rice suffers because it has animal DNA?
Others don't eat meat because meat production is less efficient. Do you think human DNA will make this rice require more land or water?
