I'm inclined to think that it probably bit off the plants it was eating rather than "sucking" them up, though. Then would you care to explain how Wilma Flintstone vacuumed her carpets?
If you have nothing to give, this leads to the problem of lying to authorities to give them what they think they want, when you've already given them what they asked for and it proves you innocent. Option 3: Do not delete or encrypt your data, and don't do anything to your storage devices that looks like deleted or encrypted data.
In case you hadn't guessed already, that's the option they want people to take.
I think the problem is that many of the companies we're talking about are so big that there are too many levels of management.
As a result, none of the decision-makers is familiar enough with the employee to actually have a healthy working relationship with them and know if they are trustworthy or not. So they treat all employees the same.
In an ideal environment, the manager would know enough about the person (and their circumstances and history) to judge on an individual basis whether it is necessary to give them the walk.
The only situation where being escorted off is when the company fires someone, or when he resigns surprisingly (including to himself) in a fit of anger. Yes, but what if this anger builds after they have resigned (per the selection bias)?
If an astronaut from Nation X makes a discovery in Nation Y's module/ISS component/lab, can Nation Y make a claim on the discovery? Alexander Graham Bell (1847-1922) was born in Scotland, lived in Canada for a while, during which time he invented the telephone, then moved to the U.S. where he lived a good portion of his life.
All three countries (four if you count Britain separately) claim him as their own.
The same could be said for life expectancy: right now the average North American life expectancy is around 70-something. I wouldn't be surprised if--when I'm in my late 60s, that the life expectancy will have increased to 80-something or even 90.
Don't worry. The best selling digital multimeters in many labs are from a company called "Fluke" (German I think). I'm sure that was just a... coincidence.

I did the same thing when I had a 15" monitor I couldn't give away through traditional channels.
Just to be sure, I put a sign on it that said "WORKS", and as you say, it was gone promptly.

If not voting meant greater control of my destiny, then I'd give it up.
Voting is just one component of a particular variety of liberty.

Convergence is fine as an option, but there has to be a reasonable selection of non-converged options, too.
How would you like it if you went into a camera store and there were only two or three cameras that didn't have phones built into them?
