You mean other than the fact they're a complete joke?
Even if you believe that the be the case, how does another complete joke of a law fix anything?

If you consider that you are willing to stand behind your edits, get an account.
I have an account. I have for the last 10 years. But often times I don't feel like being abused by editors / admin with "WP:OWN" and God Syndrome issues.
Microsoft is based in the United States, so there may be some valid argument here that as an American company, Microsoft data regardless of where "in the cloud" it is stored is subject to American legal rulings.
The *real* question is what about companies that do business here but are based in other countries?
If it really is by "junior IT staff," then it's more likely that they're doing it under orders from their higher-ups rather than wasting office hours on topics they're personally interested in.
I work at a major US Air Force base as a civilian in a middle level management capacity. I edit Wikipedia "articles" related to the military several times a week from work (possibly on my lunch hour, it's a grey area).
Does this mean I'm editing on the orders of my superiors?
I don't think you understand what "voting with your wallet" means, because it's exactly what you are doing when you choose to order online rather than buy locally for any reason. It doesn't matter if that reason is price, convenience, merchandise selection, political views, or anything else. You are choosing which business receives your financial support, and will therefore be more successful. That is fundamentally what voting with your wallet is.
And if you don't think that people choosing to spend their money online rather than at a local retailer is a problem, then why are you complaining about it?
You missed my point. Ordering online is voting with your wallet. Your real problem is that people are voting with their wallets -- but they're voting the wrong way.
2. trying to scrub his reputation to get a $60k/year raise
3. just happens to 'fall' for a con that gets $120k worth of materials
About point 2: $119,000, not $60,000
About point 3: The stolen material was recovered.
Yeah! Voting with your wallet will never happen, because it's far to easy to vote with your wallet.
If the average human eye can't tell the slightest difference, what's the point of making displays that dense?
Maybe eagles want to watch TV too.
Fuck you and your aspie world.
What he said has fuck all to do with being (or not being) aspie.
Incidentally, your post breaks UK law - stop fucking discriminating against a learning disability you cunt.
Would you guys mind taking this argument to somewhere where it's relevant?
Turns out that it's easy to measure the weather with a cell phone tower.
So many schools, librarys and entire towns have no Internet access here in Rural Washington.
I think what you may mean is many rural Washington towns have no cable or DSL. If you have a phone line, dial-up is still (yes) available, and both Hughes and Dish offer down and up link to the Intertubes. Expensive, yes, but if there is a cell tower nearby... there is Internet.
