If all my user accounts are password protected, then even a dumb or lazy thief will probably want to do a disk wipe - and no more Adeona protection. So I created a non-administrator account, helpfully call NoPassword, so that a wipe is (apparently) unnecessary. I don't see much of a downside to this.
Actually, it's business as usual for Republican, hiding the facts: the bill applied only to astroturfers being paid over 100K.
This wasn't a left-right issue, this was an attempt to control the power of money in campaigns. But if buying elections is part of the "free market," gosh, I guess some Libertarians don't have a problem with it.
Here is wikipedia on Canada Free Press owner/editor Judi McLeod:
In 2005, McLeod and David Hawkins wrote a series of articles on what they described as the United Nations' "radical socialist agenda executed across Intranets and virtual private networks, operated by the self-styled 'Global Custodians'." They alleged links between "$40 trillion hedge funds, via an online portal on the 79th floor of One World Trade Center, to 'disruptive technologies' developed by Canada for alleged use in the UN Oil-for-Food scam, 9/11 and Kyoto fraud." [4]
McLeod and Hawkins allege that the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States may have been a Mafia plot and not the work of al-Qaeda terrorists. [5]
In August 2005, immediately after the crash of Air France Flight 358 at Toronto's Lester B. Pearson International Airport, McLeod published an article alleging that the crash was the result of a bomb. [6] A subsequent investigation showed that the crash was the result of poor weather conditions and pilot error.
McLeod lodged a formal complaint with the police accusing Toronto city councillor Betty Disero of being linked to the Mafia, and of holding a conflict of interest in her role as vice-chairman of the Toronto Harbour Commission due to a personal relationship. The police investigated and found no evidence of any wrongdoing. [7]
