You too!? I was always disappointed when I opened my eyes on the other side and saw more hospital ceiling....

in an electromagnetically charged TUBE is still unfun. Where's my tricorder already?!

So what now? It's not like we can show this to Verizon and go "HAH! SEE! TOLDJA SO!" and expect them to unlock anything. If anything they've known about this for a very long time.

Life goes on. Corps always win in our system as it is. This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

SO FOR GODS SAKE PEOPLE STOP THE GRATUITOUS LAMENTING

In a sense this is a good thing. It shows that when you really get down to it, we still really understand very little about the universe and how things are formed/created. A little humility never hurt.

Good point but the reason I think what I do is the sheer fact that the leakers didn't just leak everything themselves or to the press directly. They went through Wikileaks. There has to be a reason, and that was the only one I could think of that made decent sense. :)

Which, you will note, I didn't. :)

No this is a huge issue for Wikileaks. They got most of their documents from people on the inside who needed and WANTED the ASSURANCE that some of what they were handing wikileaks would be redacted, like operative names, and informant information. They wanted it to be a RESPONSIBLE release of information, one that doesn't have to be OK'd by the very people it would embarrass.

Now that wikileaks can't be trusted with keeping the UNREDACTED versions safe, they will lose a lot of sources.

Booooooooooooooooooooring~~~~~~~~ (that's why)

Exactly!! They just FINISHED the damn thing! What a waste!

(yeah, it's sarcasm, folks)

Homophobic AND racist. I am so disappointed in you Amazon!

Not that I know any better, but it wouldn't surprise me if they've never stopped building off of macromedia's shockwave code.

"The people who run the technology the last thing they want is something new to deal with,”

I dunno, I deal with end-users all the time and for the most part they aren't exactly eager to learn new software/hardware concepts either...
