My ISP once told me I can't run a server.

I replied, "then cancel my account, and I'll give my money to your competitors"

They haven't said much since then.

Note, my ISP is not Comcast or Time Warner

The minute I read the summary my first thought was "if a government bigwig is promoting it, of can't be good for us regular Joe's"

Well I for one sure as hell don't trust our bought-and-paid-for "leadership" to regulate it in any way that's reasonable or fair to the common man. Their track record in that regard kinda sucks.

Maybe we should let Canada regulate it for us, they seem like a bunch of right agreeable fellows...

... and expanding the PATRIOT Act, and signing the NDAA complete with extraordinary rendition of American clause, and claiming that the murder of innocent women and children via drone is entirely justifiable because "maybe there was a bad guy there once," etc., etc.

Obama's true legacy, the one history will remember, won't be healthcare or net neutrality - he'll be remembered as "Shrub's third and fourth terms."

I'm afraid you, sir or madam, appear to be suffering the effect of the brain-damaging algea mentioned in a previous article.

That, or you stopped actually paying attention to American politics on Jan 20 2008. Either way, I recommend professional assistance.

Keep in mind that reality show characters aren't the people who decide to produce the show, nor air it, nor are they the ones who keep the show on the air by tuning in each week by the million.

So basically, you just said that Hollywood TV execs and reality show viewers have a lower intellect than the characters on shows like "Swamp People" and "Honey Boohoo."

Can't say I disagree with that one.

What about if the lock, upon installation, begins screaming "EVERYONE HAS A COPY OF THE DEFAULT KEY!!! MAKE A NEW ONE NOW!!!" But the person chooses to ignore it?

The second one.

The first is a good way to die of justifiable homicide everywhere I've lived.

An internet-connected camera left on publicly known default credentials is nothing like an unlocked door.

Rather, it's like a wall-sized window on the first floor facing the busiest street of the busiest city on the planet, with the shutters wide open.

They run pawn shops, maybe the fact that firearms are only a portion of their sales has something to do with it.

Now see, that makes sense! Because you're talking about actual diversity and globalization, not some bigoted race-baiter's concept of it.

Also, a woman probably would have pointed out how ridiculous it is to pretend that palace guards can't tell the difference between a group of peasants wearing rags, and the huge guy wearing a finely crafted assassin's cloak standing behind them.

There probably would, if not for the fact that apparently the majority of American society consists of invalids with low brain functions, who only care about a single issue that doesn't even effect them.

If it doesn't have anything to do with what another person carries on or in their own bodies, I doubt more than a handful of people will complain.

Well, that's a wonderful, just way to do things, isn't it?

"We can't prove you actually murdered your wife, Mr. AC, but we're going to execute you anyway just to be safe..."

Opposition to Medicaid expansion isn't always a result of "poor hating," you know.

I, for one, oppose the idea because I know that the federal government treats those programs like a crack dealer treats new customers: yea, the first taste is free, but once you're hooked and your state can't live without those federal tax dollars, suddenly you start seeing the strings come into view.

'Course, if we had real universal health care, this would be a non-issue.

Depends on whose definition of terrorism we're going by - if we use the US government's ever-changing definition (although they seem close to settling on "anyone who disagrees with us"), then yea, Muslims commit most of it.

However, if we are going by the actual dictionary definition, ie "using fear and threats of violence to coerce individuals into following a particular political ideology," well, nobody's a bigger terrorist than the governments themselves.

Personally, I've never seen a "Muslim terrorist." I have, however, seen US government agents threatening to take away people's freedoms, firing chemical weapons on civilians, and presenting an ominous and threatening presence in an attempt to force citizens to accept their rule.

Consider this - statistically, an American citizen is at least 10x more likely to be killed by their own government than a "Muslim terrorist." But yea, keep whining about what people half a world away choose to do within their own culture.
