excuse me but you are just escaping to irrelevant arguments as defense.
there are pluses and minuses for everything. entire wold is using cars for transportation, and its working well. but there are the environmental costs that is making entire world pay. same goes for email protocol. it works real well, but it has its downsides. you have to put up with them, because this is the way life works. you cant get a rose without its thorns.
icann just disseminates domain names according to its rules. so do registrars. if someone legally owns a domain, and is a cayman citizen, and the activity they are doing is not recognized as crime according to international laws, there isnt single shit you can do.
same arguments can be put against internet crime in your context. each email receives spam. the people who are using decent services like gmail, or serious web hosts for email do not receive any noticeable amount of spam. first hand experience. its a choice matter, not inevitability.
its not about what registrar does. its about WHAT i do. if i put a cayman citizen as registrar in there, set up entire operation in his name, and neither icann nor wto nor us govt cant do shit about it, because whatever that is being done is LEGAL in cayman.
though im working in web hosting field since 2003, i havent seen this issue explained that good and that short. actually some of what you told, i even didnt know.
say i have put some individual i paid $200 a month in cape verde islands as domain registrar. and icann held registrar to its agreement and get this individual's contact info. WHAT is icann going to do about this ? what is anyone going to do about this ?
while serious, spam kings and internet crime is not impacting everyone on the net. however squatting is affecting EVERYone, whether they are startups trying to get a good domain or ordinary people trying to set up a family album site.
just start doing what you enjoy doing outside of work as a side business. slowly build it up, and switch to it when it comes sufficient to sustain you and your family.
most of you people are in i.t., are well versed with tech ways, can set up various kinds of businesses, estores, whatnot on the web, or learn to set them up fast and good enough. so you all are well equipped to do some kind of business. as internet is the free medium for everything including setting up a business (and cheap to start a business online too, with the new home office thing we have going on around), you are already where you need to be.
so just act wise. keep your current jobs until you build up your out-of-work interests to a level of a full fledged business.
bands are no dishonest, roundabout, backstabbing shit like metallica, but valid ones like nin and radiohead, and i like.
and i wouldnt regret the money. if the song is good, why not pay a few bucks. that will make sure that the band puts out more songs like that, and keeps going on. there are a few artists i would like to support that way.
against the new ways ? after years of having lars the cash nightingale ulrich sing 'mo money' songs to public press ? turning on your listeners and facing the big buck ? what happened now ? did you smell more cash ?
Really? Are you a Muslim yourself? Do you personally know all one billion of them? Because otherwise I find it pretty amazing that you can claim that something is 'impossible to ignore' for 'any Muslim'. The Muslims that I know don't feel particularly compelled to live under the Sharia. I would imagine that there are just as many Muslims who ignore the more extremist interpretations of their faith as there are Catholics who do the same. How many Catholics do you know that use birth control? Or engage in pre-martial sex? Or who get divorced? i was a muslim, and studied koran thoroughly, each reading run of koran took 3-4 months to complete by cross referencing to hadith (mohammad's sayings) and sunna (mohammad's way of life). that was the way back then.
let me tell you that in islam there is not the 'option' of choosing what to believe, what not. islam's book sets what to believe and what not straight. and sharia is not optional. you are ordered to live what koran says. there cant be any 'interpretations' of koran, because ;
- koran is sent by god, according to islam, his words
- koran is unchanged according to islam, so all contained are directly god's words
- koran says that it is a clearly understandable book, and forbids the believer to seek any source other than itself for religion. intermediaries or 'wisemen' in between god and subject are forbidden in islam.
these 3 facts of islam is where im coming from. if you choose to 'interpret' and 'ignore' anything in koran, you commit grave sin according to islam.
Every single one of your arguments has been so ridiculously one-sided that I honestly don't see a point to any further discussion. Practically every post in this entire thread has been modded offtopic (rightfully so) and I regret getting drawn into this pointless exercise with you. you are the ridicule yourself, speaking on a religion which you dont know. had you not rushed into this pointless discussion about a religion you dont know, you would have saved both of us the trouble. but you are here.
For the record, I don't have a problem with our support for our Israeli Ally. In fact I have a fair number of friends from Israel. That country is one of the few functional democracies in the region and on that basis alone I would support Israel if she was threatened. What bothers me is how one-sided we are when it comes to them. i live in turkey. i know what really went on in between israel and arabs, and my one sidedness comes from experience.
Any moron with a brain and a history book can see that the Palestinians have some legitimate gripes. I place a lot of the blame for that with the neighboring Arab countries -- their despotic leaders clearly benefit from the ongoing crisis -- nothing like an external enemy to distract the populace from your own oppression. That said, had I been born a Palestinian I would be out in the street throwing rocks too. And so would you, though I doubt you'll admit it. you either do not have a valid history book, or....
i was born and raised a muslim, and supposedly i should have a lot of hatred against israel, west and anything civil and modern as of now. but, behold, i dont. truth can be found for the one who seeks.
most of the stuff edison 'invented', actually was stolen from tesla. you even do not know he invented and promoted alternative current to carry electricity along long power lines, where edison was foolishly insisting on direct current.
please, pal, this is slashdot, get real. go study some science history.
well im not a grammer nazi, but you better correct that nana microscopic thing you got there in the header. or am i nanah myself and its actually nanamicroscopic ?

un-managing you mean ... or de-managing ... or totally dismantling and sending them in shambles ...
back to school with me then.

their software cant manage their own systems thoroughly. now its gonna manage linux ? oh boy oh boy oh boy !! hot jupiters !
it seems like he portrayed domain squatting or various forms of domain farming as a valid business.
same arguments can be put against internet crime in your context. each email receives spam. the people who are using decent services like gmail, or serious web hosts for email do not receive any noticeable amount of spam. first hand experience. its a choice matter, not inevitability.

am i wrong or you just defended domain squatting ?
and that goes for all of you :

and thats the payback for the shit they have pulled with 'the people', which is us, at the advent of p2p and the new ways to distribute music.

dont think so. go to hell, metallica.

Cheap, all known, instant activation, and allows you to display a verified site seal on your site. nothing can beat it.
he is not a suspect. he is a criminal. you have camera records, many people's actual witnessing of the crime scene.
if i pick the phone and snitch you, you become a suspect too.
