And to think that just the other day Microsoft were complaining that the NSA fallout was getting worse. Are they hoping to swamp them with simply too much data on Microsoft's servers?

Why isn't this standard procedure for all data repositories?
Doesn't matter how efficient and secure you are, if one person can wipe absolutely everything from one control panel then you have a risk that is not being addressed. And one that isn't even difficult to address.
Never under-estimate the depth of stupidity on the internet. Or forum contributors' willingness to dredge and recycle it.
I think it's unlikely that France would be training for the World Cup at the local public park.
In all seriousness, would anyone like to provide a glossary?
CS I can guess, but AP??
When did UIDs start being issued at birth?

Higher intake of calories could be themselves a symptom of a medical problem.
Not saying it's a significant number of cases, but likely to be higher than the direct medical problems that cause it.
Well this is my main problem with bitcoins.
Mining bitcoins is like mining gold (which is naturally I suppose where the term comes from). You are digging up something that is essentially useless in itself other than it has some rarity. But the big difference is that gold does have some use unrelated to its value as a medium of wealth. If we are going to devote time and energy to "mining" a fabricated and virtual object, could it not at least be something that has some other use or value ?
Constructing meaningless strings of numbers that are nothing except "complicated" seems like a poor use of resources.
"He was getting on a bit. He found new things confusing and increasingly harder to understand. So serves him right that I hacked his computer and stole his credit card numbers. That'll teach him to get old. He had it coming, only himself to blame. Get off the internet, you ancient fossil."
"Despite having learning difficulties, she really liked using the computer they had at the adult literacy classes. So she bought one after saving up her wages from her cleaning job and it really helped with her reading. But I phished her email password off her, and stole her bank details from an email her boss sent her. Some retards need to learn their limitations the hard way. The internet is dangerous and should only be used by smart people like me. Others only have themselves to blame when they get hurt."
To stretch your analogy:
It's not your employer who wants the copy. It's another company entirely. Your employer passes on the copy. The other company is happy, because they just got a month's worth of work for nothing. Your employer doesn't much care, at first. Sure, they got what they paid for, but then they start thinking that maybe next month they'll get a copy off some other company for nothing, and not need to pay you anything.
And you; well you're just screwed. Two companies are making money from the fruits of your labour, one without paying you a penny, and the another is planning on laying you off. I guess that serves you right for having an "obsolete business model".
Bad anology.
If I was foolish enough to leave my door open then I'd get stuff stolen. That would be bad enough. I wouldn't also expect the authorities to come around and hold me liable for having my stuff stolen.
... are you still a victim?
Yes. Unless you are suggesting that being foolish/ignorant/unaware makes it ok to commit crime against.
That's right. Blaming the victim has always been a popular tactic amongst the criminal classes.
"Rape" and "ruining the economy by embezzlement" are not the topics of this article.
