not being able to pay slave wages anymore

That seems to be their strategy to stay on top lately.

You need the money to make the film so that you can later sue.

I like how the article doesn't talk to the ISP but instead relies on the technical information from an old lady. That's always the best source of technical info, especially when they don't claim to be technical in the first place.

I'm sure they're all just sitting around saying they want more work to do, like seeing if students open their books or not. If a student doesn't want to follow along in class, the teacher isn't going to turn into a nanny and start investigating them.

http://www.angieslist.com/ is completely legit and all it's reviews are great!

I got a couple free issues and every review was basically, "This is the greatest game ever". Didn't bother subscribing after that.

almost anything is possible. I could either choose to build the hardware to try and hack into it, or I could become Batman. With enough cash, I could do both.

Consider this. This time they don't want to be as dumb as they were in the past when they let our nation's enemies have all the information they need about the attacks we were doing to them. In this case, once they find out exactly what it's doing and can determine if it's some retarded hacking team that wants to steal CC info or it's something the government's involved in. If it's the latter, there's no need to release info on who's being targeted and other specifics. They were probably also contacted in regards to what happened previously. Some countries feel a need to have some form of national security, regardless of what some bearded basement dweller thinks.

Of course there isn't anything to stop another country that finds code like this to setup something to let IT people do the work for them to tell them exactly what it does. In this case, if things go right, that country can then start setting up fake systems and start feeding bad info through the exploit.

Some were suspecting that was how Iran got one of our drones.

They have some Live Family Center that works pretty well. Just for web browsing, I have it set to block everything at first. If they want access to something new, they can ask me to allow it in person or if I'm not there, they have an option to request through email. Programs can be managed in a similar fashion plus you can set the amount of time they can be logged in as well as when they can be logged into windows. Since this is slashdot, I'm sure my solution is the most horrible thing in the world since it's Microsoft.

...you just broke up with her now and severed contact with the friends you want to introduce to Star Trek aka showing them how nerdy you are.

"Do people still fall for this rubbish?" There's a thing called google. You can search for things and find all sorts of info. The answer is yes. We even had some lady a few years back in my state keep sending money over and over that the FBI said they'd charge her with some crime if she didn't stop. She just refused to believe it was a scam. I've even watched an episode of Judge Joe Brown where you could tell the lady getting sued fell for it. She had a relative die and needed to pay some money to get the inheritance. So she borrowed, and kept borrowing, money from a co-worker until he got sick of it and sued her to get it back. She said everything but that she got the info about the relative from an email but it was enough for me to figure it out, even though the judge didn't. Now consider this. This scam has been going on for longer than the internet. Why would you think it still exists if people didn't fall for it? I can't tell who is more stupid, the people that fall for it or those that can't figure out they can spend 5 seconds to do a little research to come up with an answer to if people still fall for it.

...whatever that means but it's not a military style date.

The tablets that have to be cracked, in order to function properly, are clearly going to be the leaders of the market.
