The US will not last long at this rate, and anyone with a brain will be trying their damn hardest to get out of here. You can deny it all you want, but with this happening, it's becoming unsafe. All it'll do is make sites move servers out of the US. Do we need more proof of Corporation of America controlling everything?

One step closer to having an ANIMUS?

And it's thinking like that is what's getting us into this mess. The internet is not something like that anymore, it is a viable resource that should not be controlled like that. Banking, money transfers, private things, creditcard information all happens on the internet. It is not some toy anymore, it is just as much a part of business, and life, as anything else is. Are we not allowed to have privacy on it?

Sorry, you're wrong. Little friend called the LG Prada....Razr had the internal antenna, so did the LG prada...phones had touchscreen by this point. The only thing it did new was the multitouch UI, and even then, I haven't looked into that, so it probably wasn't the first thing to do that either. The iPhone got attention because of the iPod, which DID revolutionize the industry. If not for riding on that name alone, the iPhone would've taken much longer, if ever, to get the speed it had. Same with the iPad. Apple runs on name alone to get things popular, and as anythingApple is currently "in" and the current fad, it'll keep doing that until it stops being a fad.

So what's this old thing we used to call privacy? Is this even legal for them to be doing? Or will it, like everything else, fall into that gray area and be used against everyone?

Chill out, guys, it's been exactly a day since this all released. They said it will be released, give them time. If we don't have it within a month, THEN worry. ...How long does it usually take them to release the source code?

Uh, no one actually knows yet. Mostly like, all that can handle it will be able to, buddyboy.

I find that kind of funny that it was so specific as to overlook something so blatantly obvious. It just shows that these judges, and the ISPs for that matter, don't know what they are doing at all. For now, that means TPB is still around, and this court order hasn't done a single thing. What's more, people will just keep finding a way around these orders.

Windows 7's Start Menu is far from bad, it's just that it's both outdated and clunky. The current Win7 taskbar is nice, but I'd rather have the small shortcuts that show up above the "All Programs" and Instant Search bars removed completely, and JUST have the list. It's also a tad slow in opening. Even then, I run Executer, which both comes up faster, and looks far nicer then the current Start Menu. Windows 8's Start Menu, once people stop griping about how it looks, I can see being very nice for icon-clickers. Once they add the ability to add a shortcut to that without needing to edit anything, it'll actually be far more useful than the current one. But the main problem is that...many of the things we're used to that ALL OS's have is that the powerdown, restart, sleep, hibernate buttons/links are no longer there. That alone will frustrate more people than it's worth. Microsoft may be trying to make it to where people don't need to shutdown that often, but they're forgetting that it takes a lot of electricity to keep something running. You people who use the desktop for all of your shortcuts...the Metro-style Start Menu is EXACTLY that, and will BE that once it's finished. Just without the desktop. Now tell me which is easier, tapping the Windows button/clicking or getting to the desktop and then finding it. ...Arguably, both would take the same time, sometimes.
