That seemed to come out in favour of the satirist.
IMHO only because of the lawyer backing him up.

Based on this
I am mildly concerned about potential reaction of the parodee, who has been known to be a little heavy handed when it comes to things like that.
I recommend a good lawyer.
See Beck v. Eiland-Hall as to why.
The Robot Combat League was fairly interesting given the limitations of the machinery that they are using.
The technology of Robot Smack Downs would have to surpass that of the Robot Combat League by a pretty large margin before it became half decent, and I don't see that happening any time soon.
FEMA Camps!
The private prisons have been in collusion with the government over this one:
1. Get lots of ant-drug laws passed
2. Increase number of prisoners
3. Build private jails (Profit #1)
4. Reduce drug laws to free up space
5. Admit to being a police state
6. Round up undesirables
7. Put them in FEMA camps
6. Ask for more money in this current emergency (Profit #2)
I've been thinking about giving the OSX another try... I've been messing around with it at work.
The mini wouldn't be a bad way to go... it's not that expensive and I can still use my 27" monitor.
Aside from the Mac Pro, the Mini was the only Mac that you could easily change the hard drive and memory yourself. I just had a quick look at the specs of the new mini and I can't tell if you can still do that.
I'm worried that the mini may go the way of the iMacs and head into being a totally sealed/pre-configured device and have no user changeable parts.
That wasn't missing in the summary as submitted, but editors will edit.

Which puts you on the same level as all those trashy journalists and shady talkshow hosts:
Here are the "facts". We don't know if they are true. But you be the judge of that
I don't get grumpy very often, but the annual marathon makes me grumpy.
Given that's its annual, and thus extremely predictable when it runs, couldn't you have done something like
Kurt Cobain saw what was being proposed and . . . . (well you know the rest)
(Too soon?)
As opposed to the bittorrent user(s) who are pushing everyone else out of the way and preventing their access?
Its one thing to do so with permission from the network owners
Two wrongs do not make a right.
That should have been "Self proclaimed vigilante"
Vigilante beats up on people in order to get public wifi access that he believes is rightfully his
That's what it amounts to. He can't get the access he wants, so he just pushes his way in and takes it.
If access is so important to your work, why aren't you/they paying for it?
You could just purchase a torche lamp with a dimmer control.
But
While politics and profit, lack of competition all are major factors in our crappy broadband options, we have to keep in mind that the US is vastly greater, and far more spread out then many countries we are being compared against..
Then how come places like NYC don't have internet connections on a par with those in Japan with lower population densities?
Sure you can argue population density in the rural areas, but that does't account for the lack of service in the populous areas.
