>>>Is it lost on everybody that these hacks are doing more damage to current Sony customers

Not if the customer data is erased after it is downloaded. Son'ys reputation is harmed (and hopefully they go bankrupt), while the customers suffer no ill effects since their Info was never released.

YAY!

It's amazing though how many still cling to Internet Explorer, even after you tell them, "But websites can see everything you do. Explorer, especially versions 6 and 7, has no privacy." One forum poster at AVscience replied, "I don't care I'll keep using IE anyway and _____ your firefox recommendation." Ummm... oookay. Just trying to help you secure your PC there, buddy.

I see Opera rose from approximately 1% to 3%. Yay.
Netscape(!) still holds a 3/4% share.
And Mozilla/Seamonkey is only 1/50 of a percent. Not so great. :-|

Dropping IE7 and S3 makes sense, but why FF3.5? It isn't that old. It was "born" less than two years ago, and EOL has not arrived yet.

And yet we have several programs that can read/write to Office files. It seems the same could be done with MS Skype - call it OpenSkype or LibreSkype.

The only problem is the potential to be sued for theft-of-service (making calls w/o paying).

I'd be happy to appear on every radio and TV show discussing the out-of-control government which arrested me because I linked infringing "Sanctuary" episodes from youtube to my facebook page. It's time to Inform the public about what kind of tyranny they are living.

So go ahead and arrest me.
I'll be happy to fight back.

In 2001 they were sued by the US DOJ for restraint-of-trade, price fixing, and forming an illegal cartel.

So go ahead Apple. I look forward to seeing you get the same treatment the record companies received. Especially now that the US Congress is investigating you. Not a smart move.

"versions of Doom have subsequently been released for the following systems: DOS, Microsoft Windows, Commodore Amiga, QNX, Irix, NEXTSTEP, Linux, Apple Macintosh, Super NES, Sega 32X, Sony PlayStation, Game Boy Advance, iPhone OS, Symbian OS, RISC OS, Atari Jaguar, Sega Saturn, Nintendo 64, Tapwave (1) Does this work on Dialup connections?

(2) "Zodiac, 3DO, Xbox as a feature of Doom 3: Limited Edition, Xbox 360 on Xbox Live Arcade, and the PS3." - wikipedia

No Commodore 64.
Or NES.
Or Sega Genesis? That last one is a surprise since the Amiga version should be able to run on the Genesis with some simple modification.

Wow. The Pentagon workers are really reaching. Maybe if the cyberattack blacked-out the entire coast, but simply hacking and downloading files is not an "act of war" deserving we go-off and nuck China.

Jeez. It's just a modern form of spying, which has existed for centuries.

Of what value is using cloud apps if companies can just make them disappear practically overnight? I'm disappointed since I use Translate a lot, and soon it will be gone. :-| Good thing I didn't lose any documents, but it could happen.

Funny.
iTunes seems to be doing just fine, even though piratebay and other illegal sites exist. The record companies should stop being wimps, man-up, and create a legal site for purchasing $1 singles. Stop the whining,

"Rather than dig dirt and break rocks, how about I play games 16 hours a day? You'll make more money that way."

Instead of a signature. It won't hold-up in court (because you can claim you refused to sign, and its not your signature), and you will not be forced to keep silent about how the doctor or dentist provided lousy service.

And speaking of lousy service:
Don't deal with Charles Schwab. I opened a Roth IRA that was supposed to be dated 2010, but they delayed the account, made me take a "Patriot Test" by phone, and slapped 2011 on it.
i.e. They lied. Damn bankers. And no I didn't sign an NDA.

I had heard that the Earthquake cracked the containment vessel, so even if there was no tsunami, there still would have been an overheating of the fuel rods and leakage of radiation/melted slag

>>>"combating digital censorship and surveillance"

It was the French president who was the leading proponent for censorship/surveillance of citizens (second only to Australian Minister Conroy). How ironic that he would step forward with this proposal. Must be doublespeak.

No wonder the typical American has ~$120,000 in total debt (plus 140,000 of public gov't debt). I don't think we can build a positive future following this materialistic lifestyle. IMHO.
