Likely, because you show up to work one day and there it is. Persuant to Microsoft's liscencing agreement, any company or OEM that refuses to stop terrorism by keeping the intratubes safe through upgrading is guilty of a B felony.
You're correct on the first part, but search warrant is an entirely different beast than siezure. No one gets deprived of their house during the investigation, do they? What if you work through your computer? And it has costly software/needed files on it (an author?) How would you be able to mount an effective defense if you can't make any money during the length of the investigation/trial? Seems like a great way to ensure the prosecution can't lose.
Why should you be shocked? If you commit a crime and are charged with said crime, why shouldn't a legally obtained warrant allow a jurisdiction to seize your computer and review it for potential evidence?
Because a computer is a substantially valuable and useful piece of property. Unless the police can convince the warrant judge that it actually has evidence, they can't take it.
Otherwise, they'd simply sieze your car and house to review for "potential evidence." Enjoy staying at a homeless shelter for the next few months while your case chugs along.
Again, they're just going to head on down to Africa and give the formula and modifcation apparatuses out alone the Nile? "Here ya go folks, grow better corn!"
It's a technology that cost them money to develop, it's not going out free. Do the needy around the world have access to all these vaccines and medical cures we've invented?
Did i miss something in the article? The company isn't doing all this work modifying corn to say "That's it! All done! Everyone come and get it!" They're selling it for profit, at what I imagine is a premium compared to other food.
It appears that a variety of genetically modified maze produced by Monsanto is toxic for the liver and kidneys
Keep calm, mazes are not that hard. There is no reason to get that stressed out. Just follow one of the walls at the entrance and you'll eventually get out.
That's not how it really happened...
But when they were come into the Void, Ilúvatarr said to them: 'Behold your Music!' And he showed them a vision, giving to them sight where before was only hearing; and they saw a new World made visible before them, and it was globed amid the Void, and it was sustained therein, but was not of it.
If any of those (or thousands of other examples) result in the person driving in a distracted or negligent manner, they are ALREADY illegal. If not, then why should anyone care?
Because politicians like the following things:

2) Righteous indignation (public)
3) Being seen as "doing something about the problem"

a bill that would make it a crime to "operate a motor vehicle while reading, writing or sending electronic messages."
Whoa, sparky. This is a law. You need to KEEP SUBJECTS DISTINCT.
The driver is not a subject in this fragment, only the motor vehicle. It makes it illegal for the motor vehicle to read/write/send electronic messages? Now, let's see what this wording outlaws, off the top of my head:
Buses that display the route/bus number
Trains that have verbal announcements of stops
Police Officers looking up plates/driver IDs (unless the car is shut off first)
Well, it's more like some clown got out of his car on the median and put up the sign instead of the city, but I get the analogy.
As long as the sign's not misleading (saying it's Microsoft and/or not disclosing the toll), the issue is even less here, since unlike on roads citizens can indeed advertise on the intratubes.
I don't think that happens anymore. They might dangle it in front of you for awile, hoping you'll take the bait and get a system, but after awile the greed is strong in them, and they must port it.
GP is right - the police only have the power to act after the fact (in theory).
A man pointing a gun at someone else's head has already commited several crimes (foremost of which is whichever one gives them the authority to use deadly force).
To twist your scenario a bit, say the man is keeping you prisoner by threat of a gun (which he has concealed or holstered). Police can't take the same action there (blow him away) because he didn't commit a heinous enough crime yet, even if the intent is the same in both cases.

Those transport ones in Futurama looked pretty fun.

I don't know: is turning these logs over to prosecute someone "evil"?
Depends on the crime. This case? Murder. It's generally agreed that that is No.
China? Political dissidents and religious undesirables. That is horrifying.

Wait, her testimony was the strongest evidence? Why didn't they admit the actual files that showed these searches were made?

Too many people believe they're a "better than average" driver, and not enough think about the consequences their actions could have.
Well, half of all people are better than average drivers.

He wants us to be satisfied with a piece of technology (likely the most complicated one you own) doesn't work out of the box? What is he, retarded?
Would you put up with that on other devices? Like an ipod that requires compiling, or a toaster that needs C statements to process bread?
It's not Microsoft's IP until they prove it in a court of law, hence the need for a lawsuit.
It's damn irritating to pass by a jewelry store, then find THEY HAVE MY DIAMONDS that I was going to mine from the earth.
Fixed.
Logical fallacy (hasty induction):
P is bad
P is a subset of Q
Therefore, Q is Bad

You wouldn't get the box back anyway if they found illegal marijuana in it. The box would be evidence.
That seems egregiously attractive for abuse, cop theft notwithstanding.
Step 1) Find crime (any will do)
Step 2) Involve object
Step 3) Profit? (or at least deny person of object)
