This series of raids is the outcome of a joint operation of several different nations.
60'000 people were caught sharing illegally in a period of 2 months.
3500 of those were germans.
130 of those were heavy users and got raided.
I don't think any of the Kernel-Developers see Linux as a Windows-Killer.
Better suited for them? Hell yes !
Better suited for the unwashed masses ? Don't think so
There are several companies who show it.
Take Guildwars for example. They sometimes have 3 different Versions of the Client&Servers online. The whole downtime for the first year was NINE HOURS.
Even though Nintendo does not dominate the market for consoles (handheld-consoles are another playingfield) the way Sony & MS do, Nintendo makes the most money/customer.
I really don't get it. I allways thought that the small attention-span americans claim to have was exagerrated. And now a topic which has been discussed over and over again (News that someone founded a GLBT-friendly guild, news that Blizzard banned them, news that the GLBT-friendly ex-guild was pprotesting, news that blizzard unbanned the GLBT-freindly guild and trained their gamemasters better) (not counting the dupes of these posts).

That was just a search for GLBT, i'm sure you can find all the other stories with some other keyword.
The last story dealing with this incident was posted March 6th, IT IS EVEN LINKED TO IN THE RELATED STORIES UNDERNEATH THIS POST. (Link for the people too lazy to scroll up
Honestly, what is wrong with you ? My little brother has got a better attention-span, and he's five years old....
The original gamer-generation (NES and the like) can finally get back to quality-gaming with intelligent people instead of listening to 12-year-olds whining to their mum on teamspeak.
You see the attacks from such countries because it is damn convenient to proxy the traffic through those countries.
Every good cracker in The US or Europe does that to have a layer of security between himself and the authorities.
I don't know where you get the impression that noone will get the real name behind the ip.
It's done this way:
1. Content Industry files a complaint against unknwon person with IP 127.0.0.1
2. attorney writes a letter to ISP
3. ISP gives name to attorney
4. attorney closes the case because of unimportance
5. Content industry reads the record of the case, gets the name & adress
6. content industry writes dissuasion & bill to name&adress
.. i can tell you that there is one thing that "breaks" most extensions:
In the extension, you can specify a maximum version number under which the extension works. Normally, the extension developer sets it to a version he has personally tested (the actual release). Whit each version-bump, he retests and changes just the maximum version-number.
If you want to do it yourself:
get into the manifesto of the extension and search for this String "1.5" and replace 1.5 with a higher number.

They did not tap ALL phone lines and did not collect data about EVERY connection EVERY citizen made.

Source for this one, please ? I'm in the Fellowship of the Free Software Foundation Europe; i can't believe the FSF set something up.

I think the maxime should be: Among all things you like to do, choose the one with which you can aliment a family.

File a bug about it. Mark it as wishlist-bug and hope that it gets picked up.
