You can rationalize it all you want, but tax "avoidance" really is the same concept as tax evasion.
The key difference being that one is legal and the other is not.

In part, that will likely mean actually allowing commercial drone operators to fly over your land at heights where they currently can't fly. Whether that's their intent right now or not doesn't matter; lobbying down the road will force that to happen. So, far from protecting you from drones, this is likely a prelude to be able to force you to let drones pass at low altitude over your property.
Let them try it. If I just happen to be flying my personal RC airplane at the time and the two should collide, oh well. A drone that is hovering makes a really easy target and I can harden the servo box for the impact. The rest of the plane is cookie cutter and relatively inexpensive.

graphical operating systems need fairly strict ui design conventions. period. they need to be breakable, but encouraged very strongly to the point of where breaking them for no reason makes your app seen as a peice of junk. this is apple's only real advantage in locking out outside apps, being able to blacklist ugly things.
You mean something like this?
There's no price yet because they're giving away the first production run to people who are going to do interesting things with them.
The program is now closed anyway, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see
Thanks for your interest in the MIPS Creator CI20 development board. While the current programme is now closed, stay tuned for more information as the Creator programme progresses as part of the Imagination community.
Windows is on its way out, and soon everyone will be using a Mobile OS -- the scammers will IM you and claim they need to connect to your tablet or phone to remove malware.
Or have I just come up with the next great thing(tm)?
Quick, file a patent application!
I know two elderly people, both bilked out of $300. I see dozens of stories in this thread about how so many of us have been called and how you like to string them along and frustrate them. I've been called at least a dozen times. We need something other than just frustration to battle them. How can we prepare tools and tactics to respond and try to stop this?
Follow the money. If the scammers don't get paid then they go away. Hit them in the bank account.
Too much fluff, and in some cases not enough rigor in their tests for my liking.
In some cases? I'm not sure they have ever conducted a test that would be considered scientifically rigorous. I would suggest that if they were to submit their work for publication it would get bounced right back, but I've seen what passes "peer review" these days so I won't.
The Elizabeth George study included only two experienced Kindle users, and she is keen to replicate it using a greater proportion of Kindle regulars. But she warned against assuming that the "digital natives" of today would perform better.
The difference is, you can't do much to force them to pay up, while they can cut off your internet access (and your livelihood) to get *you* to pay up.
Once you have a judgement against them you can turn the process over to a collection agency for a portion of the proceeds. Use the court to file a lien against their assets, equipment, etc. There's all kinds of fun you can have with this if you wish.
Pay $20 versus hiring a lawyer and attempting to sue a wrongful accusation.
Or hold the ISP responsible for being complicit it this extortion scheme and take a chain saw to their fiber bundle.

No. Nobody can explain that because that is not the purpose of the tool....They can access a lot more content using this tool, not the same content more securely.
Incorrect. It does improves security by building a web of trust that makes infiltration by an opponent more difficult. It also improves security by compartmentalizing connection and peer information so that if a opponent does infiltrate the system, the amount of information that they can obtain about other participants is drastically reduced compared to other systems..
"In order for a censor to discover the IP addresses of your computer, they'd have to somehow convince you that they're a friend." Fisk explained. "It uses these real-world trust relationships to protect the IP addresses of these proxies because when you run Lantern in the uncensored world, you are a proxy.
Through a process called consistent routing, the amount of information any single Lantern user can learn about other users is limited to a small subset, making infiltration significantly more difficult.

It is relevant to today's
Having said that, it is also meaningful to you because you likely pay, via several different avenues such as taxes and cable fees, money to support the NFL.
Either you want to be surrounded by other drunk and obnoxious people, or you don't.
