This is another example of how settlements can work against the public interest of justice. This blatant lying may influence other court cases differently to an open judgement.

I think all terms of settlements should be public, for the sake of justice.

I expect the EU to sooner or later begin enforcing it under the data protection legislation.

About 40x as many people know the name of the film now than if they hadn't dramatically pulled it.

If they are blocking wifi inside their hotel, they are almost certainly blocking wifi outside their hotel as well. An eye for an eye...

I never feel anyone's actually committed a crime when an FBI agent is to some extent an instigator

So you're going to go to all of this trouble to use a completely secure connection which conceals your identity and information about your browsing.

No matter how little bandwidth customers use, some of them will always be in the top 5%!

But the reason that say android is successful is probably not because of any specific patented technology it uses, rather it has a good enough user interface and google made it freely available for a while. The specific innovation behind android that led to its success is its open nature. None of microsoft's patents contribute to this.

TBH if microsoft have continuously failed to gain traction in the mobile phone market, I don't really see why its reasonable for them to tax the companies who've made a product people want to use.
