But CD, DAT, and the stereo PCM option for DVD-Video all use uncompressed audio.
Yeah, but most music is mixed in at least 24bit/96kHz these days. CDs have to dither to 16/44.1 which either requires truncation or psychoacoustic noise shaped dithering.

A kill switch lets people know that it has been flipped. Things stop functioning entirely, and the net "routes around it".
Why not instead use a "congestion switch" to slow down traffic to a point where government created misinformation can be spread in real time to achieve whatever goals the government wants?

IDK, they did give me a near top of the line Mac Pro when my liquid cooled G5 sprung a leak several years outside the warranty period.
And they also gave me a new laptop for 75% off several years back just because my previous one had required several repairs, which were all at their expense.

I hear conspiracy theories like this but I've never seen any evidence of it happening. Reason is that the cops would get in trouble.
Uh, no. I was born and raised in a small town in central Kentucky. My mother was the city attorney. One police officer failed to get an oil change or routine maintenance on his cruiser for 20,000 miles (they are allowed to take their cruisers home, but get free maintenance at the city garage). The engine on his cruiser then failed and had to be replaced. As a result, my mom set in motion the proceedings to have the officer fired. The city was unable to fire him, and from there on out he would, whenever he saw me driving around town, follow me and pull me over for minor offenses such as speeding less than 5 mph over the posted limits. Eventually, his wife got a job in another city and they moved.
The fact of the matter is that it is VERY difficult to have police fired. It used to be commonplace for mayors to come in and fire most of the police department and repopulate it with his cronies, now there are all sorts of laws protecting police officers.

Actually, it's an excuse to get the funding to somehow restructure the internet.

What differentitates someone who investigates for The Daily Rag from someone who investigates and publishes on his personal blog?
The Daily Rag gives politicians a major outlet for their views during election season, generally takes a partisan stance on issues, have enough readership in local areas to sway an election if the government doesn't cater to them, and their publishers generally have a lot of money.
so....so the Ruskies are running SkyNet?
Close. They're running SkyNyet.
Nooooooooooooooooooooo!
It leads to the "Ace of Spades" blog, wherein there is an article that deconstructs this stupid Daily Caller story and also crosslinks to Dan Reihl's blog where he also responds to the Daily Caller story.
Uh. Right.
Dan Reihl's response is that he wasn't paid enough for it to be them paying him for his views. Accepting money from a source about which you give favorable reviews is unethical however you slice it. Just because you work within FEC rules doesn't mean that what you're doing is okay.
Then, the "Ace of Spades" blogger confirms that he was offered to publish a story for pay on multiple occasions.
