I think if you have a letter in an envolope, you have phone line encrypteded (or if it is a line not connected to the larger standard grid), or you are using encryption/SSL on the internet you can expect protection from warrentless searches and privacy. But I don't think you should always expect a phone conversation to be private (it is insanely easy for someone else inside the same house/building to pick up onto the same line) especially wireless or cell phones (you can listen to cell phone conversations with $30 worth of gear from radioshack). Likewise with the amount of servers your queries may run through I don't think you should expect privacy on the internet. And with a unsealed letter you shouldn't expect that no one will read it (like a post-card).
I qoute the 4th ammendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Searching and seizing needs to be limited to private places and things, otherwise police can't arrest anyone anywhere without a warrant or confiscate drugs in public parks.
I could see this if Apple was a software house, but for now they are a hardware company. They already sold the laptop, and they know they have a big enough user base that will continue to buy every OS update.
I agree with this completely. I believe that degree should be your effects and property (so your house, computer, car, goods, etc.). I don't think you should expect privacy on the telephone (look at the first telephone networks -anyone on the network could listen in) or on e-mail (because again it is so easy to grab off of a network) or basically anything external. I do think the government should have to have a warrant to use any data they collect, but as long as they aren't spying inside of my house, car, computer, or personal effects I don't care. I expect any telephone/internet isn't secure (I do think mail should be secure though, as long as it is a sealed envelope or box, not postcards).
Now, I hope he's prepared to not work there anymore...
Before he started whistle-blowing he was demoted then fired. He has no job at the NSA to worry about losing, he already lost it before he made these public statements.

No. Absolutely not. Especially when they didn't ask my permission first.
What about the Terms of Use and Apple Customer Privacy Statement? http://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/ These things are far from hidden on the Apple website, iTunes overview, and iTunes download page (There are three links to it on the download page alone).

No, it would be more like if Barnes and Noble kept track of every book you picked up in their store, then made suggestions at the counter of stuff you may be interested in. If you play the song somewhere else iTunes is oblivious. Personally I don't see this as a bad thing. I don't think there is anything damning or embaressing about my music, and I don't mind sharing what I am currently listening to (and I don't think many people do, judging by the features being added to most IM software now).
I have no idea what is up with your display not showing artist/track, and all the channels I frequent sound better then FM or AM to me, but I am in total agreement about the adds, and I HATE their naming scheme (you should be able to figure out what a station is without listening to it first).
Click the link of the Google pack. To get Trillian, RealPlayer, and GalleryPlayer to show up click "Show All Software" link on the top of the page. To download, click the download button (in a light blue bar, opposite of "Select: All | None". If you need further assistance please go to a bookstore and buy "The Internet for Dummies".
Better RAM management was worth it alone. Every windows 9x machine I had would eventually eat all it RAM and force a reboot if it wasn't rebooted regularly. Windows XP I've been able to leave on for weeks and it mangages RAM much better. (Pro version, not Home).
I downloaded only the screensaver (since I had everything else except Norton [I use Avast]) and what gets me in the "Installed Software" tab in the Google Updater. It includes all the Google stuff in the Pack that I already had, but in addition to that RealPlayer and Trillian. Trillian is what gets me, why is this detecting Trillian and giving me the option to run or uninstall it?

I use weather, mini-calender, and mini digital clock (I have the taskbar hidden, hence the clock). The weather lets me know if I need a warm coat, a rain coat, or just my shirt when I go to class.

I think umbelical stem cells have more potential then you give them credit for. Not only are they showing promise in spinal tissue, like the previous article I posted, but also some blindness, tons of blood problems, Leukemia, immunodeficiencies, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and more.

They are more devolped then embryonic, which is a good and bad thing (they can't become anything at this point, but that is partially good as embryonic cells can easily become tumors). They have proven useful in blood and marrow operations, and have started to show promise in other areas. Linky: http://times.hankooki.com/lpage/200411/kt200411261 7575710440.htm
I would like to note that there is a difference between those opposed to stem cell research and embryonic stem cell research. For example I am against embryonic stem cell research, as I see the stem cells found in umbilical cords to have much more potential while not carrying any of the morality questions.
Only in movies, not in live theater (which this is). In live theater if you try to adlib you are quickly dropped (actors usually memorize the ends of lines of others to know when to give their line, so if someone adlibs it can throw the other actors off). If Steve had multiple takes I'm sure he would do the same as the movie actors you cite.
Maybe you have an older generation iPod or haven't ever updated it or something but I have never fast forwarded trying to increase/decrease volume, ever. To fast forward you would have to click the middle button when you don't have to click it at all to adjust volume. I use my iPod in my car everytime I drive and I have never had this problem, neither has anyone I know that owns an iPod. The screen scratch hasn't been a problem on mine (over a year old, not protector) and I've only heard complaints of the Nano's screen being a problem. As for overpriced, with the student discount it's not that bad, and many people I know got them free with their Apple computers (mail-in rebate though), so also not a bad price
I think everyone used Yahoo! before Google, and as I recall Yahoo's numbers are still above Google when it comes to visitors and front page hits. Before iTunes a lot of people used Windows Media Player, everyone I know currently uses iTunes or Windows Media Player.

No, but it does for a GPS guided RPG. Those are much harder to intercept too.

Yes and no. They are digital video discs, but they can not display the DVD logo (just like DVD+D/RW can't display the DVD logo).
I assume you meant > (greater than). And is that US dollars?

Maybe because in English "C" can have two different sounds, while "K" only has one, therefor leading to fewer mispronunciations.
