The court ruled it was illegal but did not order the end of the program and instead said it was the job of congress to either let section 215 expire or knowingly renew the program.

If the FCC's rules are just SOPA in disguise then why did all the republican's cry about it when they heavily supported SOPA until the backlash? SOPA was killed after threat of veto from the white house but then Obama supports net

I bought my Acer C720 for $160 and it has been the best preforming chromebook until a couple months ago. You can still get good performance in a cheap chromebook if you do a little research.

You can use Xprivacy with Xposed to feed an app fake or empty data on a permission by permission basis. This works better than blocking permissions because sometimes apps don't fail gracefully when a permission is denied.

Does this somehow conflict with the DCMA safe harbor provisions? I thought the deal was that they weren't responsible for the things done on their network as long as they don't know about it.
