So,
  Weed, Booze, Coffee, Cigs, Peyote good.
  Coke, Smack, Barbs, Opium bad.
  What about Shrooms, Acid, MDMA and Tryptamines?

    And....uh... why should you be granted the right to make those decisions for me?

  Just sayin...

Did we all forget Clinton and their Clipper initiative? Or has it just become easier to understand for Joe Sixpack?

So will this confirm compromised exit nodes allowing the network to heal itself?

Individual states aren't shorted sales tax when a resident buys out of state. If a new car is purchased from a state other than it's registered in, tax is forwarded.

This isn't thinking in the 50's this is standard modern political thinking. Protect profit. The politician is the president of the West Virginia Automobile & Truck Dealers Association and apparently owns dealers in Kentucky.

Tesla basically had ZERO chance here.

Looking at Clear's coverage map there looks to ample coverage for most of that county and all of the county if you care to engineer a custom antenna solution. It's cheap and unmetered. Might not be a perfect solution, bound to be better than LTE costs.

Mr. President,

How do you take pledges and a philanthropic effort to the bank?
    How about taking three days of the money you reportedly send to the NSA (at the low estimate 10.8 billion) then you can actually make a claim of funding, instead blowing of smoke up our rectums.

None of the linked articles state any charge of breaking the law. Looks like regulators have done an in-depth investigation and found no evidence and have used the media to cover their ass. All we see are accusations that their shopping search engine used to (or may had have) rank results that they participated in higher, and they had captive agreements with business partners. But where are the specific charges and evidence?

  The links states " Google was acting in anti-competitive ways". Leads one to believe that that is not the current situation. With new technology (wonder why we have such long beta services) errors will be made, it's the companies responsibility to create the highest RIO it can. Specifically speaking, if I run a shopping service wouldn't I want to present the most profitable product first? If I am not participating how will I assure future survival and with a publicly traded company, how does this protect the investor?

  I don't buy excuse that they are too scared to litigate or prosecute a violation of law. If it's true, the regulatory agency needs to be replaced, isn't their primary function to uphold the law?

  Recent media coverage seems like, "Hey boss we took the whole fleet fishing for the past few months, spent a bunch of money and came back with an empty hull". The recent media coverage seems like smear to me.

Bogota, Colombia has legislated no drive days all year round. Pico placa publishes the last digits in the paper.
  Anyone of wealth just has multiple vehicles.

Powdered alcohol.

  Nuff said

Seeing how the the article is so dense with real content and references, what makes this different from CIH http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIH_computer_virus ?

  This infection was sometimes a real bitch to fix as you had to hunt for the exact bios for the device (which wasn't an easy task), remove the eeprom and flash it. An real PITA and one that Joe Sixpack couldn't fix. A real nasty infection.

" Hell, that one-off front-engine model is better liked than the 914."

  I'd have to disagree. The 914 was a heck of a lot more fun than a 924, 944 or a 928. It sat low, felt like it was glued to the road and still gave ya the boxer, oil-cooled feel. It was a bit scary to drive at the edge due to the fact of the mid-engine. If you start to lose it, it's a 50/50 shot whether brake or throttle input will bring it back. Aside from that, who wants their Porsche to pump water?

"You should be shot for desecrating a Porsche like that."

Unless it was a 914 6, there's plenty out there. Most had issues with rust, even in dry climates. Aside from that, only US cars were branded Porsche. ROW were branded VW-PORSCHE.

But you have to wonder how long or far it could travel untethered. Mounting a control system and battery has got to be a challenge. It looks fairly heavy for any real distance hauls.
