I'm going to guess you are making a joke, esp. the ctrl click to deselect. I did not even read the rest of the article, once I got to the word visual, I did a quick scan for an example, none found, came here to see what others thought. Seco

And that's what I was thinking as I read this - a guy/team who can write net filtering software would surely know what side is up. I was waiting for the part where he set up a GNU/Linix box and just rebuilt his site and perhaps directing hi

I care - and Grive does look promising so thanks for the heads up. For some reason I do not like using a 3rd party for access - even though I do not understand where they fit in the data path - maybe I am just being overly paranoid. That sa

Just a thought - some people go to a lot of effort to 'hide' who they are by ensuring their name does not turn up - or if it does its so mixed in with many result's that it would be hard from a casual review to determine this is the John or

Agreed, and I imagine it will not be long until a RPi is running home built UAV's (for example).

I would like to say NZ system in general, but there are exceptions. Generally though the judiciary is pretty fair and uphold the rights of ordinary folk and are not swayed by 'bigger interests'.
