The only real legal point you have is the hints and threats issue. There isn't a good public record of what was said. From the article, it appears as though he said he wasn't going to publish names publicly. Although, it seems to suggest th

I think there are two issues here: 1. The first is that he did not release the report publicly, which is what would cause the defamation. Anonymous did. Thus he wouldn't be responsible for the release of the data. The issue here is really t

I am not a lawyer, but I'd like to address your legal points. Just as I don't need a warrant to view a publicly available website, he shouldn't either. What you are proposing is that it should be illegal to view public pages in a certain or

I'm not sure on the math, but the first thing that comes to mind is that they are a more general interest type of web property. AOL needs content it can direct users too, my mom isn't interested in TechCrunch, but she might be interested in

I voted for "I'm in the USA and I'm watching the S.B" But, more accurately, I have the SB on the TV, but I only look up when they start cheering really loud so I can watch the replay.

Obviously, not sleeping isn't the greatest way to have your best thoughts. I understand that. However, I think you're missing out on a huge upside. You are judged by your best works not your failures. The problem with studying the success o

It sounds like you should be testing more. What is different about the questions you ask and the ones that get responses? How can you make your questions more like theirs? Ultimately, just throw up a lot of crap and see what sticks. Then i

I wrote a script that scraped a white pages website. It basically pulls down the telephone directory listings. I ran it on a small city and was able to run it against smaller cities over and over again. I then gave it to my uncle who ran it

I am sure there are 100% coverage plans, but I would expect them to be very expensive. Many health insurance plans basically say, the most you will pay in one calendar year is $x,xxx. Since it's so early in the year and assuming his year st

I doubt the debate would get this nuanced, but I believe Google only tracks users on their own site. It appears Microsoft is tracking click across at least one search engine. I think this distinction has legal as well as technical implicat

That's possible, but I don't think so. Someone e-mailed her this: “Erica, I need to know how to make money on the Internet. But I need make at least $100,000 in my first year or it won’t be worth it for me. Can you suggest something that wo
