I agree, I personally don't need anything better than DVD quality if that. I have better things to spend my money on.. like, oh say, my kid's college fund!
As with Google's Extension, the extension sends the url and some site info to Google and compared to a list Google has for known bad sites.
There are a few downsides to this:
Privacy concerns
it will take a couple of victims for the site to be flagged and loaded into Google's database
Having tampered source files, which seems to be your concern. This one is a lot harder to get away with because most people using Firefox know what are good sources to download from and they're the ones downloading it for others.
People who watch TV almost exclusively as their entertainment wouldn't suddenly want to become productive if they didn't have TV. They'd find something else equally unproductive.
I'm not sure how you construed my post as a half memory because I didn't say anything that cameras are always legal so long as a notice is posted but I appreciate the clarification for others who may view. I wasn't considering private areas such as bathrooms. My statement was that in the US, if an employer utilizes a CCTV system in the workplace, they must post notices and inform the employees.
I found that NLRB case here. Look at the AnheuserBusch case.
After a little more research, I discover this and this. Not the definitive sources on the matter but an interesting read. Going back to my previous post to the author, consult your union if you're allowed one.
In the US, it is illegal to have CCTV in the workplace without a posted notice. If you have a union you should bring it up with them. I recently went through a Labor Relations course where we when through various cases and I distinctly remembering a company being in trouble for having a CCTV system without notice.
The Act is called the National Labor Relations Act, you should see if you have something similar. More info on different cases can be found here.
I believe the digital signal to which you are referring is the Radio Data System. It's nice when you don't know the name of a song or the artist and some stations allow you to keep your radio's clock sync'd.
Unless they are going to physically separate the networks, someone on the Chinese internet could still get out. Granted some kind of connector or tunneling may have to be used but stating the end of the globally interoperable internet is a bit extreme.
I completely understand, speaking for myself, I hate being lumped into the same category as the worst of our society just becauss it's always that aspect that the mainstream media likes to advertise. There's a lot more good in this world that goes unnoticed simply because it doesn't get good ratings. And just because the soldiers in Cuba did what they did doesn't mean our culture in the USA condones that, far from it. We have a very strict guidance in the military concerning prisoners of war. Those who committed the crimes were punished for their actions. Just because we have a few bad apples doesn't mean the whole tree is rotten.
Who needs to wait 10 years to run a web server on a usb key? A little outdated and I had problems getting to the site but I've been using this for awhile. Pretty good stuff.

Correction: This story incorrectly stated the affiliation of Mike Schroepfer, Mozilla's results in verifying the Firefox 1.5 flaw, and the nature of the problem. Schroepfer is vice president of engineering with Mozilla Corp., and Mozilla has not been able to verify its browser can crash and lead to a denial-of-service condition. The problem itself was a not security vulnerability but actually a flaw in the browser.
I would say it's quite relavant. The comparision is bugs, just the size of the application the bugs infest. A more proper analogy would be Microsoft's cargo ship full of oranges to Firefox's handful of oranges.
Redirect Remover. I think the update URL is bad, so here's the hompage as per Extension Mirror. You might want to try the home page's of your other extensions.
probably, I don't use it, but I hadn't yet deleted it from my bookmarks. Thought I might need it but I only use Windows for gaming. If I need to update, I just fire up IE.

An industry that listens to and supports its customers?!?!? What'll they think of next?

So you're saying this was funded by Microsoft?
*ducks*
or ultra right... depending on your audience, but this is Slashdot so I digress.

Probably not.

Yes, because the actions of a few are defintely representative of the many. Way to be a sheep to the media and lump everyone in the USA together.
Good call...
Hi, I'm going to create a service similar to yours in the same industry, but I'm not going to directly compete with you.
If I was PayPal, I wouldn't believe Google either...
Unless they use the RIAA's copyright ideology...
Easy... as in SWAT?

You are correct it's not an exploit, just a bug.

Try this NoScript. It's a whitelist so you can allow only certain sites to use javascript.
