Our planet has a very energetic core. Any civilization having that kind of technology could be interested in harvesting it (They also get a huge core made of solid iron as a bonus!)

Slashdot moderation sucks.
It used to work better when there were fewer stories on slashdot. These days the front pages gets updated at such a rapid rate that I suspect a big chunk of readers with mod points going past just a few comments in any one story. If they keep jumping from story to story then faulty moderations are bound to go uncorrected for relatively long times.
Give it a while though; residents of the internet wake up at different times

The whole point of TFA is that if even one computer gets infected on the network then it can be used to infect other machines without requiring the admin password on the remote machine.

Academic libraries frequently already have a big portion of their catalogue in digital form: mostly theses and journals. So my guess would be that someone starting out with a goal of digitizing all books would naturally start with the academic libraries.
The only person quoted in TFA, Katie Moussouris is a senior security strategist in Microsoft's Trustworthy Computing Group. So I'd say that you might not be way off the mark here.
Even if this competition was about developing secure operating systems - which it is not - there are operating systems out there (though not in popular use) that are way more secure that Linux in implementation, design, or both.
Hey Bob, no talk of subluxation this time? Getting subtler in your trolling, eh?
Your email address is not worth even a full dollar, let alone 600.
Really? Someone believing that god created us in our present form is not a religious nutjob? That's the majority right there.
Yes. Someone mod the GGP up!
You will have many recoverable tape errors.
