It is very much illegal. It violates so many laws it isn't even funny.
If even one of those pictures caught a kid with their shirt off for example, they just created kiddy porn.

Where does your sister live? I'll send her a camera... I promise my intentions aren't criminal.
I completely agree.
I have been in a similar situation, asked to grant access I really did not feel comfortable with. I stated my objections in writing, offered an alternative but stated it was my boss' decision. In doing this I covered my ass and did my duty, but was not causing issues. Most of the time they accept my alternative, once I was told to do it anyway, and did.
Your job as an IT professional is to present risk analysis and ensure those making decisions understand the consequences of those decisions, not to be a brick wall preventing your higher ups from making them. If you really disagree, quit. I have done that as well when policy changed and I wasn't comfortable.
I love it when people say "learn your law" when they are so blatantly wrong.
If you tell me you were speeding at 160 last weekend and I tell the cops, THAT is hearsay, which is enough for them to investigate, not enough to convict for the simple reason I could claim you said anything.
If you write a letter and sign it saying you did the same and I take it to the cops, that is not hearsay, that is you stating something you did in your own words. Very different.
Learn the law before you spout off at other people for not knowing it.
There is a site I use that does similar things, and many of the campaigns have to be very fast as congress will propose and vote on a bill in the same day. If we cannot use email how will we tell our representatives how we feel about it? By the time a letter reaches them it's way too late.
If the USPS will deliver from California to Washington on the same day... or if Congress wants to self-limit enough citizens have time to figure out what they are up to, I'd be happy to send a physical letter.
Actually most developers are very frustrated with the Android market place thus you will get more apps on the iTunes marketplace.
My company has been working with a major motion picture studio who can't make the app tore work, and going to their app in the the store crashes the market on the phone.
If Google can't make this work for a billion dollar a year movie studio what prayer do little developers have?
Much has been made about that report for sure... but has anyone actually read the press release?
It isn't even based off real sales numbers, it was based on 150k phone surveys.
Android fanboys were so happy about the announcement they never looked to see it was meaningless data.
you don't like iTunes that's fine... but what rock have you been hiding under that you don't know Apple removed the DRM the second they were allowed to?
Or proof that being a new phone gets you attention. They don't tell you most andriod phones were sold last quarter. Once they are both six months old see what happens.
Google fanboys will buy android the minute it comes out same as apple fanboys will buy iPhones.
To access an android phone you have to link it to a Google account... you download apps from the google app store... This is this different than linking to an iTunes account and downloading from the apple apps store how?
Those numbers are about 6 years old... get new ones you want to make such a statement.
Adobe is not suicidal, they have a huge market on OS X which has no desire to be forced onto windows.
No business will open the door to a market for potential competition when they can hang on to it.
No you are a moron who can't read. $20 + $5 wallet = $25, under the $100 requirement.
If you found $150 then yes, you are a thief according to the law. You may disagree with the law, that is your right, but you're still a thief.
Justice will be served to the idiot Gizmodo guys who think they can ignore the law and hide behind the claim of being a news organization in hopes they will be given the same protection as a real news outlet.
This behavior just proves they are irresponsible, as if we didn't already know that after their trade show stunt. They whine and complain about not being taken seriously, well this is why. They are like a 13 year old kid who jumps up and down throwing a tantrum because they're not being treated as an adult.
The worst part is there ARE online journalists who are trying to do it right, and these jerks hurt their efforts and credibility.
Real Programmers don't write in FORTRAN. FORTRAN is for pipe stress freaks and crystallography weenies. FORTRAN is for wimp engineers who wear white socks.
