"lord" blair WAS a top ranking policeman, but has not been for several years, catch up sunshine, especialy if you are going to correct other folk, make sure you know what yer talking about. nobody took any notice of him when he was a copper and its still the same today. he spouted government directed bs then and he still does now, another one who only turns up at the house of lords so that he can claim his luncheon vouchers and his expencises. he was a knob head, is a knob head, and will always will be a knob head. i worked with a fella who used to beat him up on a regular basis at school, he would never try to fight back but would run off o the teachers and try to drop loads of folk in the shit by inventing things they had supposedly done, its part of the blair gene, congenital lying.

you are an ignorant fool.

you mean a british newspaper that does'nt just reprint the latest us govenment bs press release?

so what are the differences between the two then?

here in the uk you can be prosecuted for buying legit gear if you believe it to be stolen. also for buying what you believe are drugs even if its sugar or flour.

because people have realised what you do and dont get buying apple and they have stopped buying. basicly they dont believe the hype, bull.... etc that apple rely on for sales. apple, last years tech at next years prices, the world has voted with its wallet and spent elsewhere, even in usa apple are failing, stock price down 50%, sales down as well, all as predicted. i wouldvnt put my money in samsung either, they have no better understanding of the markets than apple do a d the same situation we are discussing here will happen to samsung very soon. they also will crash back to what they should be, a non-dominant phone maker, possibly even quicker than apple, no-one thinks samsung devices "cool".

no, they should leave the situation as it is. turin was convicted of commiting an act of gross indecency in a public place, not for being gay, people are still charged for indecency, turin knew the law of the land, and decided to break it, and was found guilty. there is no good reason for a pardon. turin may have been smart, but he was only one cog in a macine, he did'nt cure death, or walk on water. next thing will be sainthood!!!

er,what, i work on a site in the uk with 2000 techy folk who are well paid and have spare cash to spend, would you like to guess how many surface devices i have spotted, 9,and folk say there are not many more inside offices, 9 out of 2000 folk, loads of ipads, loads of andi tablets and lots of mid-range laptops. not much penetration is it? the public reaction and reviewers comments before release should have warned ms, but as per usual, ms thought they knew better.

nice selling job on i. e. the question is asked by some who does'nt understand the problem and you as a "security consultant" should know better. there is no safe way of being on the net for most folks, if someone realy wants access to your machine, they can get it, if your realy "a person of interest" to someone they will go to the trouble of getting physical access to your machine and do it that way, if your worth the effort in their heads. encrypting everything is like waving a red flag to a bull, as long term, 35 years, "person of interest" i dont bother in anyway of trying to do anything to make my system anymore secure than the old lady next door, to do so would ring bells and whistles somewhere, i have nothing to hide to why should i bother, i'm just a boring little nobody
