pass (new) legislation that expressly protects from this bullshit that they keep reframing. at least that way you can point out that new BS bill X contradicts a bill that _they_ passed.
instead of looking for a single object, why not build an obscenely large army of bots with lots of different sensors to map the ocean floors. you would find plenty of cool stuff in the process like new sea creatures, lots of lost aircraft/seacraft and sunken treasure.
the issue here is NOT about having DNA on file, it's having DNA on file that can be associated with an individual. having tons of DNA data with a full medical history's for each sample would be super awesome for research. research doesnt need names of people, just information/associations with other real world factors. however, if you can be associated with a particular sample then there are a lot of bad guys out there (and good guys with bad ideas) that would love to get their hands on that kind of information.
i'm not ok with the government having DNA on file in a way that gives a direct association. so having DNA_Sequence=Plummer_Joe is bad. what i am ok is with them storing a hash result using my DNA as a key. HashFunction(DNA_Sequence)=9je4H2 and Plummer_Joe=9je4H2 is ok. that way if they actually have DNA (evidence), they can look people up but they cant get DNA arbitrarily.
also, "asking" for DNA by a company should be as illegal as the whole facebook password thing. as a precaution, i'm deleting my DNA.
it's just too bad that the only thing a politician will understand about a hash is that they "didnt't inhale"
"We had said that we wanted to move to an open source solution but it has not been possible to do so in this version of CloudStore,” said a Cabinet Office spokesperson.
the truth:
"We said it would be open source but it was inconvenient for us and we have no legal obligation to actually follow through on any promises we made to the public," said a rat.
of course they are going to know when there is going to be a tsunami when the satellites start shooting lasers off the coast of small islands.
"We can provide protection from tsunamis by tellin' yous guys when they gonna hit. it would be a shame if something were to happen to this nice unprotected island. Isn't that right Tony?" "Yeah boss, it'd be a real shame."
i get the feeling this film is going to leave out the unflattering parts of what he did and did not do in his lifetime. got absurd amounts of money? help some people with it!

it's Intel that's heating up this battle. someone should watercool Intel before they overheat.

Sure, but in the cases where it works you eventually come away neither dead nor wishing you were dead. So your options are
A. Take the drugs, wish you were dead, then get better, then feel fine
B. Don't take the drugs. Be actually dead.
ahem...
C. Don't take the drugs. Be actually dead. Come back for BRAAAAAINS!.
