This shows, once again, the folly of depending on centralized systems to manage the free flow of information. To spell it out: The operators are few, and human, and will therefore behave unpredictably, resulting in situations such as this shutdown.
DoS attack against the ToR hidden service; from inside the ToR network.
Cute idea, but it won't work. TOR hides things really well, and even if you managed to find one server, the admins could easily start another instance of its software on another machine.
When will candidates who are actually qualified to represent science or at a minimum show an interest in it be the representatives of science with regard to political decision-making?
When a majority starts using their brains to vote. Which means, probably never.
I've heard it's about 1 in a million, per sample. So for 8000 samples, it would be 1 in 125. Good enough for an arrest, I think, but not for a conviction.
A Tor hidden service is not decentralized; it still runs on a single computer and is controlled by one or a few people.
A truly decentralized system, such as Freenet, has no admin and can't be controlled.

Even if the ISP looks, they can't determine if something is illegal or not. A court of law is required for that.
Obligatory.

Another antibiotic. Any guesses on how long it will take for resistances to evolve?
They tell ya, 'Never hit a man with a closed fist.' But it is, on occasion, hilarious.
So, what other proxies can UK residents use to circumvent the block? TOR, obviously. But that can be a bit slow. Here's a fairly long list.
You can't outlaw poor taste.
Sure you can. Many such laws are still in effect. And given that "taste" is highly subjective, those laws are usually as stupid as they sound.
Apple Maps don't kill people... I DO!

Java (and C#, I think) enforces this; every exception you don't catch must be declared.
> And yes, the company would then have broken the EU directive and would face the courts.
How would the EU courts find out?
They wouldn't.
Copied, not stolen.

What was the point of winning either World War if, in 2012, someone can be casually arrested by @Kent_police for burning a poppy?
The point was that from 1945 to ~2010, they could not be so casually arrested.
Liberty is not static; it must periodically be re-conquered from those who would deny us.
The GPL protects the user's rights and the Free software engineer's rights.
The BSD license protects the closed-source programmer's rights.
So why would anyone prefer BSD? Because they're on the payroll of closed-source companies.
Time to do a siterip.
Paid access isn't going to work any better at all.
They're mountains that shoot fire! That is literally the definition of the word awesome, am I right?
Considering how dumb our bad guys are, I wouldn't be sure of anything. :)
VLC on any OS, including Windows and OSX, uses the same code as on Linux for DVD decryption.

Good question. I imagine there should be some OSCE charter that the US has signed, but I can't find it. Their website is difficult to navigate.
Bandwidth in the air is limited, and everyone has to share. Perhaps this will teach some people to return to wired connections.
No one is saying he's innocent.
He's not convicted yet.
