If Gandhi were alive today, he would DDoS British Salt Manufactures website, so that no one buys salt from them. So you point that DDoS is bad, is still moot.
 
BTW DDoSers are pretty easy to identify, and the DDoSers know it too. But they also know, they cant arrest all of them (just like the Gandhi's followers knew). And just like Gandhi's followers did not print a list of people that participated in the salt march, Anons did not publish a list of DDoSers. The simply dont have to go on record exposing themselves.

I am well aware that the money goes to himself, and not a penny may go to wikileaks or any non-profit org. But my point is he deserves it.
 
Do you have any reason why the money should no go to him (apart from the point that he is profiting from rape(which I have already countered))

BTW, its not Micheal Moorer was just of the contributors to his bail bond. And I am sure if he had had this money with him, he would have himself posted it.

Nope, this book it about what he thinks of wikileaks, and how he believes people (including him) started wikileaks. So its fair to pay him. Ok, to come up with analogy, say you write a book about the US Govt, is it you that should be payed for it or the US Govt?

Does the swedish govt pay for his British Lawyers and his British Bail Bond too (which was about 200,000 euros, if I recall correctly)?

Nobody should profit from a rape.

Oh yeah, its the rape charges that made him famous, and the book is about his relationship with the women and the rape. Oh wait, his book is about how he started with wikileaks and early personal life.

Too bad none of you claims hold any water (No wonder you posted anon)

3) Money to spend privately on things unrelated to any of this.

Wow, someone is jealous.

Comment Re:PSTN vs independent VoIP (Score 1) 76

My point was that most calls are currently packet-switched. They even in fact share the fiber that carry general internet traffic, only with additional QoS enforcements. The last mile is still 48-volt analog system, but (almost) everything else is packet switched. And of course, as you pointed out, this does not apply, if the connection does not leave the exchange (I guess I am allowed to get away with it, as I said most :)).

Even if your call *does* go VoIP, you may still never leave the domain of the PSTN, where things like QoS can be enforced end-to-end. The Internet's generally a "unreliable, best effort" service. Different operators do different things, and all you can do is plug in somewhere and hope for the best. A telco deploying VoIP as a backhaul internally is a very different beast.

I guess, your point is one can rely on VOIP, but not on the Internet (at present atleast), which I guess agrees with my point.

Comment Re:So what (Score 5, Informative) 840

in Sweden if the woman withdraws consent during the act it is still considered rape, with prision terms.

The point of contention is not the swedish law, but whether the consent was actually withdrawn and the credibility of the womens' statement. The women seem to have continued their relationship with Assange, despite the rape and condom-break incident, which makes their claims sound a bit dubious.
