First mistake: They list the IP in the affadavit OUTSIDE of the logs twice as 72.9.153.42 instead of 72.9.153.142 as it should be. One could assume that they could have now raided the wrong server in Tailor Made's farm.

Second mistake: "root" is just an IRC nickname on AnonOPs, and this person does NOT have root access on the IRC server that was raid as falsely assumed in the affadavit. They have oper with override privileges, and that was what was logged. The raid on the server at Tailor Made Servers was made under false pretenses.

Third mistake: Those logs show... [Thu Dec 9 11:14:27 2010] - OVERRIDE: root(root@72.9.153.142) TOPIC #loic '!lazor default targethost=api.paypal.comsubsite=/ speed=3 threads=15 method=tcp wait=false random=true checked=false message=Good_night_paypal_Sweet_dreams_from_AnonOPs port=443 stop' ... if anyone here has looked at LOIC's topic parsing, there's two mistakes the FBI made there. The first is that there's no space between targethost=api.paypal.com and subsite=/. The second is that this person "root" is STOPPING the attacks by adding "stop" at the end of the topic. Unless they can show logs of this "root" person throwing "start" in the topic instead of stop, this person is doing exactly the opposite of "willingly and knowingly" executing commands to start a DDoS attack.

The title of the article, that is. Some of the content of the article does mention aurora australis.

Yeah, actually this article is completely misleading, seeing as Aurora Australis (the "Southern Lights") already exist. It's actually the southern lights just visible at lower latitudes.

To be fair, it does include the name of a game that was copyrighted in 1981, and it was even contested and won against Universal City Studios because it was too close to King Kong.

Ding! You've leveled up! You can now change your class to "White MJ"! You've learned the skill "Dodge Lawsuit"! You've gained 3,000 MP (Molestation Points)!

This is also old news in regards to the actual topic. Malware has been imitating error pages and injecting code into pages (like "Google detects you're infected, use software to fix!" on Google") for the longest time..

...doesn't mean it's legal, right?

I was thinking of something more along the lines of OLPC or any of those charitable organizations that help spread technology to people/places that regularly wouldn't have access to it.

Y'know if they wanted to refuse the cash... instead of letting Mozilla keep it, have them donate it to the charity of their choice. Just sayin'.

Uh, actually, Apple is choosing HTML5 for the iPad over Flash. Although I believe Hulu sticking with Flash... soooooo...

Well y'know Frontier's serious about this patent suit... they decided to file it outside of the East Texas District!

Yeah, the headline on this one is a bit sensationalist. The FCC is for prevention, not takeover.

Zero per... OH SHI--

Full infiltration of the TOR network is pretty much necessary if they ever want to catch pedophiles in the act.

I've also got some philosophical issues with the removal of access to this content as well. If you take away CP from a pedo, doesn't it just mean that they're going to turn to alternative methods to fulfill their urges, such as nabbing little kids, and public indecency at parks, etc etc??
