Your claims seem inconsistent across the site. On the page you linked to it says "Payment can be made monthly, but a two year contract is required." but then on the CEO page, it says "There are no contracts, overages, fees

Will it? As much as I disagree w/ this ruling, grabbing data isn't isolated to the US government. Don't you also have to be concerned that those countries may subpoena the VPS provider?

I doubt it, they don't claim to sell you contact information for the artists themselves, just their publicist. Big deal. The information usually includes email and phone numbers to the artist's talent agent, publicist, legal repr

Yet it has solved nothing, because we still have investment scams all over the place. Those investment scams are already illegal, so prosecute them. Why do I need another law to "protect" me? This reminds me of taxi regulations. L

Exactly. Every company's business process has it's own uniqueness, so if you try to evolve it into a mass-market tool (as opposed to designing for it up-front), you end up with a Frankenstein system that is enormous and complicate

I still think it's an interesting question to think about. There's going to be a (long) period of time whereby autonomous vehicles are sharing the road with human controlled vehicles and the elimination of all/most accidents

Why would it bother OCR'ing road signs? That seems much more error prone and needlessly complex. That data is readily available from a data sources based on your GPS location, I know TomToms and other navigation devices have it.
