What I wish would happen is that organizational forces were focused on breaking up ISP monopolies over the pipes. Essentially, building a firewall between infrastructure and content. It would create a market...remember that thing we think c

Well, if you say "no, really, ...now...this time stop lying and cheating and stalking. Ok, we're good not, right." then it will mean something.

Well, Ballmer's gone. So maybe they will figure out how to pull together their innovation. It is kind of deflating sometimes to realize that MS was doing something that they simply dropped the ball on. The smart phone is solidly one of

Probably not Netgear or Linksys' choice. The Treasonous Act, aka, the Patriot Act has a black version that forces such companies to do as they're told and shut up about it.

"The brochure in question dates from 2007, suggesting capabilities may have advanced even further since then ..." Naaah. I'm sure they have been sitting around patting each other on the back. On a side note, here's bone.

Sorry to break it to you, but bomb sniffing dogs are not really all that great at sniffing all means and methods for creating and delivering "bombs". And dogs don't make corporate and political parasites billions of dollars.

Let's all remember why the TSA was created; solely so the Bush administration could buffer the economic impact of their shit economic policy and the effects of the terrorist attacks that group of feeble minded simpletons played right i

Just curious are you watermarking to specifically deter unauthorized use of the image? I ask because I could see how you could use steganography to hide copyright information or simply add the watermark in such a manner that you would only

Isn't the whole Iraq war a false flag act of terrorism? Accepting that the 9/11 attack was executed by those purported to have done so, and even if you accept that all the knowledge of the preparation and planning for the act was

Funny thing; the American prison corporation complex was just exposed as gloating about how many "beds" they have and that each bed means more profit margin and shareholder returns. Oh, yeah, we also have the largest ratio of impr

It should be noted what this finding says about the state of the German government. It provides me rather significant trust and confidence in a government that is honest enough to put out such a statement in spite of the rather existential

You could list thousands of ways that "terrorists" could terrorize in rather cost-effective and simple ways. And yet they don't do any of them. It is quite evident by the very nature of the lack of effective "terrorist&q

Can we please stick to standard English. Rozzers = British enforcers of the crown. FYI, guarantee that police and all other emergency vehicles will not be outfitted with wire mesh enclosures to protect from such shenanigans.

Personally, I think loyalty programs should be broken up. Their very existence is premised on creating monopoly and cartel outcomes by round-about ways of curtailing competition; remember, that thing that our corporations pay lip-service to

Spoken as a true engineer, ignorant of human interaction. That is not meant as an insult, it's rather an unfortunate observation. The far better "moral of the story" or lesson should be to improve transparency and documentati

That post is rather tone-deaf about the same circumstances in the USA. Yes, China is a lot less refined and advanced about how it controls message and impression, but it's behind in many aspects, one of which is propaganda and state co
