Why has nobody thought of this before?

Personally, I think that some combination of the two would be best. Using child protection filters on your bookmarks and history, along with private mode to train your browser as to what sort of thing you think is private. Even better would be to include a little icon in the address bar to show you whether the browser considers the website you're on to be private or not.

Comment Hydrogen != Petrol (Score 0, Redundant) 453

One problem I see with that number is that, yes 1300 mpg is impressive, but it's 1300 mpg of hydrogen fuel. The only useful comparison that can be made to current cars is that it'll be ages between each fill-up.

Without doing any research, I have no idea whether 1300 mpg is impressive for hydrogen fuel or not.

You're going some place weird, my friend. The limit of my Uni's Acceptable Use Policy is that your computer have anti-virus software installed. They don't come round checking though. The only other limitations they have are "no peer-to-peer file sharing", legal or illegal, and no connecting more than one device to a network port because most people can't set that up properly and it annoys them.
I of course regularly wirelessly share my wired internet connection, but it's set up properly. They may be able to detect that I'm doing it, but to be honest, IT Services use the "secret" DC++ file sharing we have going on campus as much as anyone else, so they're not going to care about a little secured ad-hoc wireless network.
