Remember when you could jailbreak your iphone by simply going to a website? Industry-leading for sure...
It's all relative... What company hasn't been hacked recently?

I expect any smartphone user who pointed the camera of their device in people's faces in the way that glass does every second it is worn would experience the same reaction.
You know damn well that Glass doesn't constantly record. You can stop pretending to be offended by its "always recording" feature now, it's getting old.
If you ordered a gift at the last possible second, the problem is not UPS. It's you.
Unless the seller guarantees that the item will arrive on time. Even then the problem is most likely with the seller, not the shipper.
Damn, here I thought you were making a clever joke about Starbucks.
Customs roms aren't really about escaping Google, they are about escaping the lockdown carriers tend to put on their phones.
Cyanogenmod started removing features as soon as they sold out. One of them was root.
I've seen this posted a lot, but I haven't seen it. I download and install the latest nightly version every morning after I wake up. My phone still has root and I haven't seen any mention of removing it in any of the change logs.
Because using the internet and illegal drug use are the same thing.
I have complied with between -549 and 451 requests.
They would probably go with the angle that the clients you upload to don't identify themselves to you, so there is no way to know who has permission. As far as your client knows the other client is anonymous, it could be anyone. That at least shows intent.
Out of curiosity, couldn't bittorrent clients be tweaked a bit to facilitate a "fair use" defense?
Let's say a given peer in a large swarm (where peers>>pieces) greatly prefers to seed only one "piece" of the torrent. Could that be considered infringement? I mean, one "piece" out of hundreds, that sure seems like fair use to me. It's just a snippet of the whole copyrighted work.
And if each peer chooses one "piece" like this, couldn't the entire torrent be downloaded by someone without any of the seeds ever sending over anything more than a "fair use" snippet?
Obviously the initial uploader would still be guilty of infringement, but what about all the other seeds in the swarm?
I'm not a lawyer, but that plan sound suspiciously like a conspiracy to commit a crime.
Not when you have to go through the "justice" system.
If you are a copyright holder, or acting on his/her/its behalf, and you seed a torrent for me to download, you have, in fact, given me the file. Since you are the copyright holder, that file was given lawfully. You cannot now turn around and sue me for taking from you what you have lawfully given. Your harm, such that there is, is entirely self inflicted.
Honeypots are a useful tool to learn techniques that the other side uses, but they are, by and large, useless as a technique to sue over copyright infringement.
IANAL

They won't sue you for downloading the torrent, they will sue you for uploading to others without permission.
Some features are disabled on rooted phones (including cyanogenmod) I think its mainly the DRM on their music store means they won't let you buy on rooted phones. It is entirely possible they will disable other features future and I don't really see the need for me to change.
They have disable nothing as far as I can tell. I can buy music, books and apps. The only thing even remotely like you suggest is that Google Wallets pops up a banner tell me that my device is "unsupported". Wallet still works perfectly though
The CAPTCHA is influenced by what you do after you exit it?
My guess is that Google watches what you did after the PREVIOUS captcha and uses that to determine how to display upcoming ones.
This could be useful to detect capthca farms where people sit all day and just solve the captcha for spam bots. If you immediately move from one to the next to the next without spending any time looking at content then it's time to serve you something that takes more time to solve. If, on the other hand, you solve only a few captchas a day they can give you something easy.
Horses don't go trotting down the road, and neither should bikes.
Never been around the Amish, have you?
4: Leave the link congested, build a reputation for low quality service from light and heavy users alike.
But continue to sell new subscribers on the congested link, while still promising them "unlimited internet!" in the advertisements; and then blame the problem on the people trying to use what they bought.
Always draw your curves, then plot your reading.
