What else do you think they will do with access to your system besides the botnet campaign? "While repairing the botnet, we discovered 137 copyrighted files. These have been reported to the **AA. Have a nice day!"
If you don't publish there but a little well timed back room dealing makes it the place to publish, from what I know academia has a bad habit of blackballing people as "second class researchers" because they only got to publish in some smaller journals.
You need some kind of critical mass incentive that tips the balance. Something like "$1,000 per quality article to be published CC-Attribution" or something.
Prologue: Heh - in case you haven't seen a couple of my other posts, I am already preparing for the age of SuperCopyright. By that I mean that we will need to WhiteSource just about everything we do, down to at least the sentence level. I've been doing this on my little hobby website under glacial development.
Back on topic: My sigs are like "Trending" - I am collecting pieces towards a theory of Web 3.0 and/or Web 4.0 depending how the breakdown goes. "Your remark is more powerful than you imagine". I feel it is like the 0.001 precursor to the biggest revolution in politics that the country has seen since 1776. Imagine a candidate who is partially a mirror of the internet community (let's say it's US residents with proofs etc, skip the troll/dilution game for now.) The sneakiest weapon politicians have is they get to all hang out in DC within a Lunch/Dinner Meeting of each other, while we are spread apart. They get to play Prisoner's Dilemma games on us because they sit at command centers and we have to rely on 4th hand reports from the media, with bias.
But what if we had a Citizen's Vote Aggregator (robust with fraud protections)? Every single policy position, live updating, weighted much like slashdot based on karma. Example: Repub decides to Increase Military Spending for Gitmo? 35,000 Citizens Dislike This. 1,000 Would Vote Out Based On This Issue.
They busted the notion of political privacy, so screw private voting. We can decide for ourselves within a week if we like the issue. Then if we back the results with votes, for once they have to listen to us. People's journals become much like talk shows are today. What would Washington do if we got so fed up we did an entire grand slam and Tombstone Slammed all of Washington with any 3rd party candidates on the ballot? Suddenly NO ONE knows where they stand, so they'll have to really dig in without the old boys networks to bail them out.
The only reason the candidate is not a Blind mirror is as a last defense against trolls. But supposing he follows 75% of the recommendations, but *posts reasons* for denying the other 25%, the US really might end in 2012 to become the America InOffice.
Wait, is this that after-market for conversion like we saw for Y2K?
Also, forgive the poor phrasing, but can everyone in IPv6 see each other? Can we just ditch all that eHow and Experts Exchange junk all in one swoop? It's like a giant Reset Button for the Internet. "Everything that matters will migrate because the people that care will do it. 15 years of legacy will fall away."
"Oh $hit, I accidentally just hit "filter for interkin3tic on my dataset! And I have an eidetic memory! Now I can't get his tracker info out of my head! Please no one ask me anything under a lie detector test..."
It's like those Rules. If there is info, it will be tracked.
Yeah pretty scary that ordinary posters on forums can come up with an "obvious" political move. Therefore, the reasons which made it Not-Obviously Bad are terr...uh... frightening.
I shall borrow your last line as my sig. Unless you screech "copyright" at which point I'll return it to your library.
I wanna know why (rhetorical, it's cause we wasted 25 years squabbling) we haven't commoditized moon runs. Sure, they can call it "costs" but everyone's saying the fuel is the easy part, so why can't we do 50% innovation on a Moore's Law through the roof and get this down to "One million dollars"? Absolutely, as said elsewhere including me, just sling spare supplies up to reduce the quad-or-nothing factor.
I believe the tech is there. After all, we made the moon with laughable tech. Put slightly facetiously, we need to take a page out of 75 years of SF and get 16 cores of Intel goodness to help drive us there. The big deal with all those 1-shot earth side calcs for the moon is that they had no backup comps to do calcs on the fly.
Funny though, that's like three positive space stories in a couple of weeks. I guess people were upset that we looked like we were sinking into squabbling down here.
Don't we say that any one of thousands of us has better grammar than what shows up in summaries? Should we link to original sites rather than awker & friends?
All someone needs to figure out is how to keep the trolls from posting stories vs the rate they post comment. Maybe a 5-person metamod before it gets released?
Actually, you just mentioned one of the key problems with Web 2.0: "Why bother to link the site of an unknown artist who might be able to use the traffic, when you can link an intermediary aggregator first?"
You're another poster recommending "deficits are fun!" Yet we can only hold the illusion for a few more years, and then only because we're a pretty big country. Look ahead to Ireland, Greece, etc, for what happens when that noose closes and your entire country threatens to become a monetary crater. They barely put together a euro-bank bailout.
It really isn't conceptually hard to have a balanced budget some of the time. What we have now is a multi year problem to clean up and no, we can't just gleefully print monopoly money.
About that whole Next Quarter thing, we need some incentive that tips the odds to long term thinking. It's in the class of game theory second cousin to tragedy of the commons.
RIP Victor Serebriakoff.
He could have helped write Apple edition iQ tests.
Yeah, so, they'll get a fine to offer affected customers a free downloadable game right? So what, they're just Custopeons.
But if you copy their game first, you're going DOWN terrorist!!
I have free tickets for you to ski on the slippery slope.

Great post, but then you missed it on dylsexia.
Distribute "converter code" which by itself does nothing but when merged with the false 404's it produces a song!
Hiya, Member of the Devteam!
What is Stone Soup and why did you folks make "DCSS" sound a lot like "DeCSS?"
You sure it isn't "Corrupt (for your protection)? Cancel or Allow?"
Prisoner's Dilemma again.

He contacted the click tracker company on the page.

Obligatory Note to Mods - all slashdot threads contain joke threads 3 layers deep, so watch out for the Joke-Alert Quotes.

NZ? Really?
So if you steal groceries you get to go on your way but if you copy three songs you lose da internets?
Easy! Make all campaign promises under penalty of perjury!

Thanks for the flame squishing.

Steganographically encode info in trolls!
Did you exactly document the shades of red in Goatse? How do you know those aren't orange-shifted to encode data?
Talk about in plain sight! Yikes!
Wait, did 10th grade call asking for the In Crowd back while sticking nails in the tires of Nerds?

Yep, we're off to a bad start. A dupe with a juicy spelling link for the Spelling Brigade in only two sentences of TFS.
What about a Slashdot Fork?
Isn't the base code OSS/CC Attribution?
