How'd that whole 'Master Race' thing work out for Europe last time? I think I recall something about Americans paying to keep you safe - and they have been doing (or trying to) so ever since (for better or worse). I realize you were trolling but, come on, you can do better. That does not even rile anyone up.
That is all well and true but those will take time to ramp up or become popular. France would lose access to a lot of content and integrated services if they tried to do that.
So Google is going to pull a France in France with the whole withdrawal thing?
Actually the meme about French cowardice is rather unfounded. Surrendering to Germany was the right thing at the time. The correct thing would have been, of course, attacking Germany immediately when they attacked Poland but hindsight is 20/20. Otherwise they do not really have a history of avoiding a fight - even to their own detriment. Hell, the French Foreign Legion is rather impressive and while it has ''foreign" in the title that does not make it any less French.
Don't make the US force ICANN to give them your domain name... Well, you won't if you know what is good for you. Also, I am not exactly sure what Kim Dotcom did that requires (or allows) the US government to screw with him. I guess he won the whole frozen assets thing, which is nice. However...
My French is awful but isn't that "please the cheese is smelly?" Or, I suppose, just "please smelly cheese?" I am missing the "get fucked" part in all of that. I can not spell French - it is much worse than my inept attempts to speak it - but, maybe, "faire baiser" would be in order? Also keep in mind my French is not so very French. I live on the Canadian boarder and they do not speak French really. My time in France was limited and I had a guide so speaking the language was not important but I did try because I would hope that others would attempt to speak to me in my language when they come to my home.
Bread and chocolate? I have been to France, nobody tried to feed me any of that. I think I might just be kooky enough to like it. Hmm... I bet a slightly salty bread is nice with that.
I like that theory. You need to flesh it out a bit more - throw in some real names and links to things that can be misinterpreted and you should be all set for an independent documentary.
I have no shame. I can not be blackmailed. I am running for a state office and am ramping up to do this. My entire platform (varied) is based on a single piece of paper. One side is everything I have done wrong (major things only). The other side is what I have learned from these experiences.
I have re-opened this page because of your comment. It made me think... Perhaps this is just a new strategy? See, now all the people in the US Intelligence field are now compromised. The only logical solution is to fire them all as they can no longer be trusted. So they should be fired and replaced with new people who will follow the laws and stop doing needless spying on the citizens of this country. Perhaps...
I can dream, can't I? Marijuana may have been involved but I think the logic is still sound though pretty stretched.
Instead, they may as well have stored the stuff on a public library computer.
Thanks, asshole. That is where I keep my financial data. I will have to change that now. Now I will have to store it at Google's "free" data storage "in the cloud." At least it will be secure there.
I had a minimal security clearance when I was in the military. As a civilian I had to do some work on a government facility and had to fill these papers out again. I am not sure why I had to fill them out as I did not encounter anything that should be secret. Anyhow, I filled out the paperwork (as did several other people) and I did so completely honestly. What I find odd is that I was approved though I did need to go to a couple of interviews. I was completely open about my drug history, my affairs, etc...
Whenever someone gave me the wrong number and the resulting number was their fax machine (this happened a bit too often but does not happen now) I would wait for the noises to stop and reply with hums, dings, beeps, and whistles. I do not know if I said anything in machine language but I always hoped it was somehow rendered as a dirty picture in ASCII.
IRC? I could see how that would be handy. I can also see it being a waste of time. I do like the idea though. I have only seen it with online groups interacting - never have I seen it in-house.
I am retired. The only time my phone rings it is bad news or one of my leeches (children - I love 'em) wanting money. I'd think they would have plenty of money. The older they get the more money they seem to want. They have trusts, they have jobs... I don't want to... Wait, what was the subject again?
When I correct someone's grammar, spelling, or punctuation it is not because I feel better about it. I do it because I legitimately care enough to take the time to correct it and hope that they see it as a valuable contribution. I do not do it often and I tend to do it based on how the person is likely to receive it. I am also very polite and explain my motivations. Oddly, as far as I know, nobody has ever been unhappy about it nor have I been called a Grammar Nazi because of it. Well, no... The person I was replying to has not made any complaints. Others have chimed in and told me how that other person should feel. I do not value their contributions much but I remain polite and open minded enough to actually read their responses.
I have often wondered if I am in the wrong when I use proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation when I send text messages. I may be a bit OCD too, I tend to make longer messages reach the 160 character limit on the dot but that is more amusing to me than it is an obsession - I will certainly send shorter messages when required.
I was randomly headed around the country in whatever direction seemed interesting when I found myself trying to find alligators in Louisiana. This meant meandering from swamp to swamp and communicating with the locals. I managed that. I decided that the causeway looked interesting and headed to NO where I stopped for gas. I asked the cashier what was going on at the nearby store. The nearby store was occupied by a bunch of people and a very large number of police officers who seemed to be collecting people like Pokemon (yes, I have grown children). The cashier, a rather large woman, said to me, "I don't be tripping, yo." (I am attempting to give that punctuation - it may not be correct.)
My internal lexicon did not parse it. I still do not understand it. Any of my ebonics-familiar friends are unable to give an interpretation that actually has any context with the question asked. I simply do not, did not, understand and have been puzzled ever since. My conclusion is that this lady was Buddha reincarnated and that it is a koan for which I have no understanding. I have literally tried to mediate on it and concluded that the rational answer is that I was being told to fuck off in a more polite manner. Polite is, of course, ethical and thus situational. That is, still, just a guess - I have no idea what was being communicated. However...
Immediately after a more puzzling situation occurred and is off-topic unless we wish to loosely define communication and include this. I do feel it must be shared, however. I feel that it was a form of communication and it was clearly defined communication. As we left the convenience store we were boxed in by a large number of police cars. They all had flashing lights. A third lane was added and immediately filled by police officers - we were boxed in on all sides. One of the officers (or more than one, I only noted one) flashed his siren for a single loop. The officers in front slowed down, the officers on the left slowed down, the officers on the right moved forward. The only rational thing to do was to move right. I did so. The officers sped away. They had dropped us off, escorted us, to the nearest entrance back to the closed highway (the one with the causeway - Rt 10 maybe?) which was nice but I can not help but to wonder what would have changed if I had pulled back in behind them to go to a hotel. Then again, the plates were from a long ways away and it was a 740il so maybe they just figured we would not be at a hotel in that area.
Perhaps someone regional can assist? I do not feel that my lack of comprehension is my fault - it was like an alien world and I have spent time in many urban areas and am fluent in ebonics, usually.
Either way, that was communication as well and it was clear. The reasons behind it may be fuzzy but the message was quite clear. Eh... We found a nice hotel in the French Quarter, drank ourselves silly, enjoyed the music, loved the food, and then went to check out the trashed sections of the city during daylight hours. Shreveport stinks by the way.
They do much more than voicemail. I kept avoiding one for the longest time. Eventually I caved and got my own personal secretary and it was great. Of course I had sex with her and ended up divorced so, still, she was great and it was worth it.
What is amusing is that you all seem to believe that this is the most successful operation to date. There may well be bigger that operate on a variety of sites in the dark web. They are just not likely to come out and give this information away.

If there is only one place you can get a job then I have a hard time feeling sorry for your plight. The market is tough but not *that* bad.
Even better if Google uses name forwarding to point google.fr to bing.com.
Bread and chocolate? I have been to France, nobody tried to feed me any of that. I think I might just be kooky enough to like it. Hmm... I bet a slightly salty bread is nice with that.
Wait, there are NAZI supporting Poles in Greece? Also, who the hell picked the name NaZi anyhow?
I like that theory. You need to flesh it out a bit more - throw in some real names and links to things that can be misinterpreted and you should be all set for an independent documentary.
Isn't this a dupe? Didn't we just have this same question not so very long ago?
I have no shame. I can not be blackmailed. I am running for a state office and am ramping up to do this. My entire platform (varied) is based on a single piece of paper. One side is everything I have done wrong (major things only). The other side is what I have learned from these experiences.
That is far more likely but, damn it, it would be nice to see.

I think Carter is the only president that I have witnessed doing more good out of office than he did while he was in office.
