Your Sig: "MIT betrayed all of its basic principles."
You can't betray your basic principles. What MIT have done is revealed that they have been lying about what their basic principles are.
Apparently, UserStyles is facilitating massive copyright infringement.
It will get out of hand, and we'll be lucky to live through it.
For further context, they were making a repetitive joke
No, actually they took the bins out after the IRA bombings during the troubles, because the IRA did use bins to hide them

Aah. Every story i've read (and I haven't paid that much attention to this beyond making sure I wasn't infected), has oversimplified it to "The FBI took over the running of the DNS servers".
I stand corrected on that point, my apologies.

The common law definition of kidnapping includes 4 elements:
(1) the taking or carrying away of one person by another;
(2) by force or fraud;
(3) without the consent of the person so taken or carried away;
(4) without lawful excuse.
An officer cannot possibly have probable cause to believe somebody has committed a crime if the action in question is not illegal, therefore the officer has no lawful excuse. Courts have also previously held that the threat of force is sufficient to satisfy (2)
He shouldn't have been suspended, he should have been charged with kidnapping.
