but if the web proxy is not in penn.. then that person does not have to abide by that law? after all he's not there in penn.. what if the web proxy is in korea... well you get my drift... Hardly enforceable... Hardly enforceable... true... Not against the law... false... The article made it very clear that national and international ISP's had to obey the law for their Pennsylvania customers. It didn't say that the law applied to an ISP providing service for someone in California or Korea. But if that same ISP has customers in Pennsylvania, then it must filter those customers access. What would be interesting is wether or not the law applies to backbone providers? If a backbone provider is providing the service for a Pennsylvania-based ISP, are they required to filter the whole ISP?
now the question is what if somone in pensilvenia uses some sort of web proxy to view such pages.. hrmm makes the isp still liable? does that mean that the isp has to block all web proxies out there.. oh what a mess this will be..
It will probably make the owner of the web proxy liable. After all, they are providing an Internet Service to a citizen of Pennsylvania, if they don't filter out the child porn sites as well, then I suspect that they would be in violation of the law as well.
In a telephone interview after the appearance, Heckenkamp's father, Thomas Heckenkamp, said his son is only trying to protect his rights . "They've overstepped their bounds, and they're keeping him from defending himself," he said.
I wish the article went into more detail about this statement. I don't understand why the father feels that they are keeping him from being able to defend himself. He's getting his day in court and all. It appears to me that he's doing everything he can to screw up the trial instead of taking it seriously.
A French Company sues a British Company in a California courtroom. I guess I don't understand why they took them to court in California. Seems kind of far for both companies. To the best of my knowledge, neither service is offered in California, are they?
I agree wrinkledshirt is probably trolling, but please see this article
I've never read that article, but I've read plenty of articles about Rabih Haddad's case. The fact is, he's been in the country for 2 1/2 years illegally. He's had at least one hearing where the judge decided that he should remain in custody. If someone could find me a case where there isn't even a minor visa irregularity, then I'll gladly change my tune.
You're right. He's not a religious fanatic. Power hungry madman is more appropriate. That's the only way that I can describe someone who has used weapons of mass destruction against his political opposition.
1. Which is the only country on the planet that's used a nuclear weapon on civilians?
United States of America. Not the only country that has used Weapons of Mass Destruction against civilians though.
3. Who's killed more innocent civilians? Al Quaeda in the United States, or the United States military in Afghanistan?
I don't think anyone really knows the answer to this question. One of the problems is that many of the "documented" civilian deaths in the early days of the bombing capaign were propaganda by the Taliban, and no independant sources have verified their claims. I don't believe that you can trust either side for accurate numbers on this issue.
5. Who recently said that getting Bin Laden, the architect of the Sept 11th attacks, was no longer a primary military objective in Afghanistan?
Maybe he's no longer in Afghanistan. That would mean that he could no longer be a primary military objective there, right?
7. List the number of Americans being held in captivity by enemy forces even though they've had nothing to do with American foreign policy. Now, list the number of people of Arabic descent being held by American forces even though they've had nothing to do with the Sept 11th terrorist attacks.
The State Department figures that around 2,500 Americans are arrested every year in Foreign nations. I haven't found a single documented case of someone of Arabic descent being held without them also being charged with a legitimate crime (usually immigration violations). I disagree with bringing in Arabs for questioning, which has been done without evidence linking them to crimes.
8. Any feasible pipeline built from the oil fields just off the Caspian Sea is going to need to go through Afghanistan. True or False?
False. It could also go through Iran.
9. Define the word "Terrorism" in absolute terms. Now, in 50 words or less, state whether or not the School of the Americas trains terrorists and why.
I don't believe that the School of the Americas trains soldiers to be terrorists. I believe that a few of it's graduates have committed terrorists acts, and probably would have with or without the training they received at SOA.
10. Afghanistan's Taliban regime was notorious in its poor treatment of women. Now, list all the countries that have a similar record of such treatment, but are still allies of the United States.
We didn't go in there with the intention to liberate women. Even though, I agree with you, I don't think that we should ally ourselves with foreign powers that don't provide their citizens with the same freedoms and protections that we provide ours with.
"We are deeply disappointed that Ukraine has not passed an effective law and instead is rushing through an ineffective law," said Eric Schwartz, vice president and special counsel of the International Intellectual Property Alliance.
I wonder what Ukrainian talking heads had to say about the DMCA?
It would be nice if they included some sort of guarantee that the FBI would need to get a warrant to prevent their product from detecting it. Maybe some sort of encryption scheme where the FBI would need to provide Symantec with a warrant to get the key to get around their product.
Grrr... worked for me this morning. Looks like they're checking the referral link to make sure that you are coming from apple of lucasfilm's sites to the trailer.
Maybe it's not as cool as opening up the hardware and the software for everybody to use royalty free, but Nintendo is definitely not going to hurt itself by livensing the hardware and the software for other manufacturers to use.
While I realize their security concerns, in my opinion the problem isn't with the cookies. The bigger security concern, is really with web bugs. The rest of the stuff that the EU seems to be concerned about really is data that could be generated by analyzing web server logs. The problem is with sites that monitor people across multiple domains.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have to opt-in to use MAPS? I mean, at least with MAPS don't you have a choice? In my opinion that pretty responsible freedom-wise.
It's also not the first time that people have used tape measures for satellite antennas. It's an old trick that builders of microsats have been using for years.
What's your plan? Kidnap researchers and force them to develop the drugs for humanitarian purposes?
The problem here isn't Roche... it's the Brazilian government. One of those articles discussed how Roche is bending over backwards trying to meet their demands. There's something else going on that's pressuring Brazil to do this. Probably somebody seeking re-election or something.

Turns out the lawsuit is in California because it was NDS Americas Inc. that transmitted the details onto the Internet.

Did they consider that other events in 2001 besides increased piracy that might have led to people buying fewer CDs?
I believe that they stopped blaming Sept 11 when they realized that they couldn't capitalize on it politically.
I don't know what your problem is ... I can see it just fine.
Open Office will remain free though.

They were doing this at the 2600 meeting here in Utah in October. I didn't make it, but it appears they had some success.
