Laws were never passed to give back jobs to people obsoleted by machines because the owners of the machines were the same kind of industry mobsters who are now buying laws to restrict what you can or cannot do with your machines.
Internet activism will never reach any result, witness the fiasco with the TSA scanner boycott. The only resort is violence: whether you like it or not, the 9/11 hijackers succeeded in changing the US from an international powerhouse into a whimpering, hysterical mob scared out of its wits.
Don't bother with that plan, you're only making extra work for people who are not worth it. Eat a lot of chili, instead, and opt for the molest... Er, pat-down. When they're busy touching places they shouldn't go near anyway, fart away. Release your inner Black Smoke. Fill their nostrils with noxious organic fumes.
Seriously, if you want to do anything about this, EVERYBODY should opt for the manual search, make it as unpleasant an experience as possible for the TSA thugs, then write letters accusing them of "inappropriate behavior" and "unprofessional conduit". Women's complaints are particularly effective. Ruin their lives, it's only fair.
Wow, you're really mad at space enthusiasts, are you? What happened, loserboy? Did the jock who beat you up and swirled you in high school become an astronaut? The girl you lusted after (and who had a restraining order filed against you) ended up marrying him? Do people you know admire this spacefaring überjock who made your insignificant life miserable?
And now, after mopping up floors all day (which is the only job available to unskilled loserboys like you), do you feel the bitterness rising as you jerk off your wizened cock to kiddie scat porn, silently cursing the people who put you down by simply being better? Well, keep in mind that it takes absolutely no effort being better than you by any measure. But your life must be horrible indeed: have you considered suicide?
... Than civil death will do. Have all the lawyers involved permanently disbarred, charge everyone down to the cleaning lady with being accessory to blackmail and extortion. Permanent mark on their criminal record, so they will have to struggle mightily even to get a job flipping burgers. Let's see how those crooks like it, having to say goodbye to their fine houses and expensive cars and having to move to cheap flats while their kids say goodbye to Eton and become shank fodder in the mean streets of Old Blighty.
Nerdrage can never and will never make any difference. Guns and bombs are another matter: if you want YOUR vision of the Internet to be upheld, back it up with violence. LOTS of it.
If the "war on cyberterrorism" ends up like the "war on terror" and the "war on drugs", mission accomplished: widespread fear, worldwide bankruptcy and flaming cats thrown in the air.
European governments do not work together as you think: they will happily screw each other in order to bring business to their countries for their own benefits. Europe is "united" only in the sense that business like. Another EU country will happily take business going away from Ireland, and the Irish can scream until their throats go hoarse.
It's not like blackmailing Germany. And if you're big enough, you can.
You know, you should have brought the HD to the authorities and explain that some terrorist mole at Customs had placed unknown files, probably containing steganographed information, on your drive for later "retrieval" by burglary and that you were rightfully afraid for your life because the terrorists obviously wouldn't be willing to leave any witnesses behind.
That would have been a giant hoot.
Take ALL of their possessions, throw them into the streets. Mob justice is the only kind of justice they deserve. Their families should share their fate as well, since they benefitted directly from their actions.
Yeah, plan9. Resurrection of recently dead operating systems through the insertion of buggy code patches in the core script. Like it would work. I'll see your flying saucer doused in lighter fluid and burning over the Hollywood sign, loserboy.
Debt collection agencies must be destroyed, there's no way around it. To all who say "just don't get into debt" I unkindly remind that companies like Intrum have been known to exort sums from people for eBay or credit card transitions that have never happened. They count on the "scare" factor and on the fact that most people prefer to pay up rather than face legal action.
If a private citizen is found guilty of extortion, he ends up in jail. Those POS do not. Corporations are above the law. But as I will never tire of repeating, they are not immune to physical violence: lawyers' bones break like everyone else's.
"The British established a penal colony in Australia. They never declared the whole country was a penal colony and only criminals would go there."
O RLY?
From the Jockcyclopedia: "In 1788 the crime rate in the United Kingdom rose four hundred percent. The whole continent of Australia became the one maximum security prison for the entire country. There were no guards inside the prison, only prisoners and the worlds they had made. The rules were simple: once you went in, you didn't come out. "
Case closed, loserboy nerd.
How many bad action movies have you been masturbating to? If I ever meet you I'll beat you up for the hell of it, then set you on fire because if I don't, a supervillain with Johnny Depp's face will destroy the world with a freaking Moon Laser.
So, let yourself be set on fire. It's to save the world. You fecalmasturbator loser.
First of all, loserboy nerd, if you fire a gun at anyone it's ALWAYS with the intent to kill. Second, there are precise legal definitions of what "self-defence" is in most civilized nations (the UK is not one, just to be clear) and if someone breaks into your home with you inside, you ARE in a self-defence situation. In the most peaceful country in Europe, Switzerland, lethal force is warranted if someone breaks into your home and acts in a threatening way. You cannot use lethal force if they run away but if they actually confront you, there is absolutely no doubt legally wise. Having lived there, I know that for a fact. There is no necessity to "prove without a doubt" that there was a life-threatening event, although you will have to justify yourself.
However, vigilantism is another matter. You want to play superhero? Get a license. Not a superhero license, a private investigator/private security agent license and then you can patrol the city in plain clothes at your heart's content, though it becomes tiresome towards 3AM.
Ban passengers. Stop ALL passenger travel, throughout the world. Scrap all airliners, all passenger ships, all trains, trucks, cars, mopeds. Force everybody to stay home and kill everybody that comes out. It's the only way to stop the eeeevul terr-ow-rists to KILL US WITH FIRE!
Because it's very hard for ANY child to die OLD.
Except loserboy nerds who live in their parents' basement and never really went through puberty, which explains why so many of them are trekkie pedophile geeks.
Costa Rica doesn't need an army, they have nothing worth taking and the place is a hotbed of corruption even by the region's standards. If Costa Rica is ever threatened, someone else will have to defend them or maybe they'll just distribute enough cheap guns and booze and solve the problem with quantity vs quality.
And yes, spent time there. I wish I could have it back so I could spend it in a ghost town.
This is what should happen. Unfortunately, the media mob will never, ever, ever accept it. Their aim is complete, absolute, unchallenged control of media and distribution. To this end, they will wage war against the very foundations of the Internet and will win if unopposed.
There is no hope in laws, they can buy them, and neither in politics because they have everybody on their payroll. Like with all good revolution, this must be waged with violence: MAFIAA representatives must be assassinated, their properties destroyed, their families targeted. To the little people who work for them the question is: are you ready to die for your masters' money? Is the pittance you're paid worth it? The next letter you open might well take your hands and your face off.
Beware.

"The freedom to be unemployed in some other European country..." FTFY.

Depends on the kind and amount of damage done, and who will be targeted.
Yeah, but when we hang those mofos with barbed wire and set their intimate parts alight, it will feel good.

"Lawful coercion" does exist: it's called "arrest" or "detainment".

Not to the lords and masters who make the laws but are not usually bound to follow them.

I hope many kids will die because of this. Preferably orphans.
