You are correct and my statement was for the sake of humor and to express my frustration with the courts decision. I am not unhappy with the result (invalid TOS) but the reasoning. Any TOS that is such a bunch inherently ununderstandable legalese should be invalid per se.
In the future we will have to read those 36 pages of legalese and complete a test on it....
A post from Cpt. Obvious. I guess you will be hard pressed to find people on Slashdot who actually think the Klout score really says something about another person.

IMHO: In 90+% of all cases the answer is
The question reminds a of an old joke:
A man comes with Chicken McNuggets to a veterinarian and says "Doctor, Doctor, isn't there anything you can do?"
Seriously: Any infected PC should be treated as it would contain contact poison. I would at least low format the hard disk and completely rebuild the system. In doubt i would rather loose data than allowing the infection to spread.
Take this you d*mn Yankees and get a tast on how it feels to watch "Game of Thrones" months later or through a TBP-proxy
Jackson would have liked to take material from the Silmarillion. But he didn't get the rights. The Tolkien estate doesn't like his movies...
Now they have a new space suite, they must travel
I think 90+% of all failed projects started with a great presentation. Bad presentations don't start projects

A good joke always brightens my mood and relaxes me which helps me to sleep better.
