The irony here is that Version will claim no one is paying them to expand their capacity to deal with the Netflix traffic.
But then there customers should be able to ask and sue for an answer to the question: "If you don't have enough bandwidth to handle sending us data from Netflix, did you lie when you told us you were selling us X amount of bandwidth?"
I refuse to criticize Netflix for standing up to the ISP extortionists.
How does that saying go? It's better to free 100 guilty men than imprison 1 innocent?
That's no longer really true. According to the NOT.ONE.MORE movement, we should impinge the rights of 100 in order to forbid the 1 potential criminal to take action. Even if impinging on their rights in the end may have absolutely no impact.
In the end ALL our freedoms will be destroyed by FEAR because we're demanding security and, well, fuck liberty.
And in the end the governments just giving us what we want. So what if it happened to be executed by secret laws, using secret courts that issue secret orders.
Actually, the greeks invented the symbol being held as IP.
Well, the Greek alphabet is based on the Phoenecian alphabet, so possibly even older than that.
Nearly as old as Beer?!? That's awesome.
No, No: somebody should do a little research on this Ingrisano character and let him know that we know where his kids go to school and the route his wife takes to work (if no wife or kids, mom and dad would do, too).
Then smile.
Scum like this deserve no better
From the pictures you can find I dunno if he's likely to have a wife or kids...
Paul desperately needs to be kicked into a large, deep pit while someone shouts, "This is Sparta" or suchlike.
Greeks invented the Pi character, it's in their alpha bet and much older than Paul the Trademark Troll.
Shouldn't be much of a problem here. Snowden's already shown all the cards the NSA didn't want anyone to see.
The only problem I have with what she said is that it basically boiled down to, "we need to improve Computer Science education by educating kids in a whole bunch of other basically un-related things."
Stories are circulating that Harry Reid is the one who exerted pressure on Lahey to pull the bill.
Reid is as corrupt as they come.
What, you mean I can't calculate all the physics necessary to play basketball and be ready to play the game.
You are exactly correct. So many disciplines utilize applied mathematics. It must be a skill that children can readily call to use (like dribbling in basketball). To master that skill, drilling is required, not optional.
Addition leads to subtraction, subtraction leads to multiplication, multiplication leads to division, division leads to suffering.
Disney spent 4 BILLION for Star Wars.
Yep. Now imagine that everyone be required to have one of those in their car. There would be a huge backlash from the general law abiding populace.
I'm more disposed to this particular view...
You put your secrets on computers which are exposed to the internet? STUPID!
I can't blame the Chinese or the Russians or some school kid in Vallejo, California, for prying in and having a look around, if companies are so damn stupid about erecting barriers between Trade Secrets hosting systems and an outside world. How about building an intranet, encrypting resources, creating VPNs which require a key, employing something like Kerberos to verify some user on a workstation should have access?
All down to laziness and paying the executives too much for their massive blind spots.
