A cop gets a higher than usual blip on his Geiger counter and pulls over a guy...

Then the OP fails to mention anything about what happened next. Still asks if there was legality over it....

Hell yeah there is legality over it. If rad detectors are detecting higher than normal levels of radiation, wouldn't you want to know if the person was just getting chemo or planning to make a dirty bomb? Obviously the guy had a legitimate and verifiable explanation for his nuclear glow. Also there wouldn't be any charges drawn since the guy was going through a medical treatment and no malicious intent was involved.

I don't have to RTFA to know that this wasn't worth being a "News for Nerds" article other than for the science or a "Cool Story, Bro" story.

It is called "Tinfoil Hat Moon Battery". The guy (in his own words) is not a doctor, dietitian, or a scientist...

Basically: He is making stuff up and pushing off paranoid opinion and trying to push it off as "scientific" fact.

I read his "blog" (resisting the urge to rage here...) and he wrong about a lot of things. I have been Insulin Dependent since I was a baby and it had nothing to do with my diet or life choices. Yet he wants to blame diet and a plethora of BS for my condition NEVERMIND THE FACT my diabetes is a direct result of genetics. Also, its hard for a 10-month old to know what a choice is, let alone make one.

I hope he gets sued and jailed for his stupidity and paranoid BS.

The real icing on this cake is that Sony made Kazuo "Riiidge Racer!" Hirai the CEO.

That's right. The same guy who thought the name "PlayStation 3" would convince gamers to spend $599 on a product that wouldn't play PS2 games yet mysteriously play PS1 games. The same guy who thought people would buy this console for all reasons except games.The same guy who thought "Cell Processing" would be the wave of the fut..LOLOLOL Sorry. I can't say that with a straight face.

However, look at all the good he has done! He showed the world that Sony has ABSOLUTELY NO security!

Or no concerns about its customers...

Or think that the entire customer base is either idiots or "evil" crooks out to steal everything from everyone...

Or that the only thing stopping the world knowing your credit card information is Norton Antivirus that had it's last update back in 2002...

Or selling a "game" system for a major profit lost in hopes people will spend $600 on the future ID Theft Machine...

Or taking it's sweet time to get the PSN back up...

Or ignoring customers' demands for it to have an alternate OS...

Or prosecuting somebody who figured out how to jailbreak it and give customers what they want...

Or demanding and obtaining the IP addresses of anybody who watched any of the guy's videos or went to his website...

Or forcing updates that strip users of pesky things like the right to sue in a class action lawsuit....

Yeah... Sony picked a real winner for trying to stop Sony from losing money.
