IDK why BBC are reporting this now, it happened a year ago, summary also doesn't mention that he handed himself back in within a week of escaping.

WTH were you doing to them? I call BS.
Have you tried ofcom/adjudicator, they sorted out my beef with Virgin Media pretty quickly (couple of months total).
You really think Amazon wants to take the PR hit by suing a contractor who worked in their warehouse for 10 dollars an hour?
Have you seen the way they treat their warehouse workers, they don't give a crap, they would have no qualms about suing the employee. 'No news is bad news'
They'll sue their ex-employee's new employer,
Nonsense, they don't have a contract with the new employer so they can't sue them, the employment contract is with the employee, that is the only person they can sue.
How many warehouse workers can afford to fight Amazon in court?
It's a scummy move by Amazon, there should be laws against this kind of thing, with very large fines.
As much as I disagree with your post, it's doesn't strike me as a troll. I'm getting sick of people modding posts as troll simply because they disagree.
I not a Clarkson fan, I just watched that and it sounds like he says "uh nuh nuh nuh by the toe". It doesn't sound like 'nigger' at all.
Or how about they follow our laws!
As others have pointed out the debate is pointless since we don't have any real AI and I'm not convinced we'll have anything as intelligent and sentient as a average human anytime soon.
Asimov assumed the laws could be hard coded, if we do create AI that probably won't be true.
We are living in a world with more than one video camera (cellphone) per person now, and there is a lot less 'ufo sighting' movies than ever.
Maybe this isn't true, there are half a million 'ufo sighting' videos on youtube, this one video is interesting:

Includes congress people, senators etc.
I don't think we need to worry about aliens, we're probably going to destroy the planet ourselves.
Wow, whoever modded your post as flaimbait must really hate aliens big time, perhaps they've been abducted and probed in the past.
Are aliens still a big thing? I thought that fad had kind of fizzled. We have got to the point where no camera footage with UFO's in will be believed because footage is so easy to fake now.
Real dystopian world domination by corporations is being achieved one treaty at a time, but that doesn't make for a juicy story.
I may watch it on one condition - they change the theme tune, it's annoying.
I don't understand the train of thought that leads to the notion that quantum computing is a prerequisite for strong AI,

. Solar is NOT cheaper and it may not even be "cleaner" than other options when you consider the whole lifecycle of the system.
Are you aware that the prices of solar panels and batteries are falling constantly and that is widely forecast to continue. modern solar panels do degrade slowly - good ones at about 0.5% per year, that means they'll still be pumping out plenty of energy in 50 years time.
Solar panels will very soon be the cheapest option without subsidy even against fossil fuels that are subsidised.
Nuclear is cheaper! Not any more.
And no-one should be disposing of them anyway, they can be recycled. In fact, nothing should be going into landfill these days.
