CO2 is the primary driver of respiration. Breathing high levels of CO2 makes you feel like you're asphyxiating, just like when you're holding your breath. It's painful and miserable.

Storm surge? It's 4 degrees in Plymouth right now.
I'm guessing the real reason is so they can do some sort of compression between the ground and aircraft. Lossy compression of Facebook and Google images could save a good bit of bandwidth, and they can't do that without intercepting the unencrypted data using this method.
They could say something like this:
Bandwidth at 30,000+ feet is inherently limited, and heavy-load activities like streaming videos from the ground can weigh down our network. That means playback is subject to poor video quality, buffering, and slower connection speeds for your fellow passengers.
Oh wait. That's exactly what they say. They're very up-front about not being able to stream video.
I paid for some GoGo on a flight recently. The signup page made it pretty clear that data speeds were pretty limited and I wasn't allowed to stream video. I don't know why they need to spoof certs for that as opposed to just blocking sites or protocols though. Maybe they do some sort of data compression on the ground before transmitting to the plane or something?
No, it really is kind of a big deal. WebMD is for-profit and largely funded by advertisers such as pharmaceutical companies. The site uses clickbait-style headlines to drive page views and actively preys on fear.

DSL uses a different technology. It piggybacks a different signal on preexisting wiring, but has totally different hardware at each end.
Dr. Thorne was the primary scientific consultant on the movie. For this article he's stepping away from the movie and talking about how possible or plausible some of the ideas presented in it actually are.
I don't believe I've ever seen a modem break 56 Kbps over a phone line.
Watts is in units of energy divided by time.
Now.... what are the units of "calories per day"? Take your time.
Don't look now, but Moto just released one of the best Android phones ever, is about to release the Droid Turbo, and is the manufacturer of the Nexus 6.
They also weren't putting IVs in him and taking care of him while he was bleeding out the ass and vomiting during his final few days on earth.
So eating a lot of protein cures HIV? Who knew. I guess those idiot physicians and biochemists and infectious disease specialists and epidemiologists just don't understand anything a pharmaceutical rep doesn't tell them.
No such luck. The tablets have replaced the black and white printouts of player positioning and play development. Turns out those pictures were provided by the league itself to both teams - it's not something teams do on their own.
So if Belichick doesn't want the tablets to view those photos, he won't have any photos to see.
