Does it concern anyone else that Americans seemingly couldn't be bothered to actively protest this very same legislation with any level of ferocity here in the states? What will it take to get us upset enough to leave our collective couch, do you think?

Why anyone ever bothers predicting technological domination three years out is beyond me. Will Android even exist then? Will there be another technology in its place? Three years is a long time in the software world.

For now, anyway. Tune in next year when DNA-smashing imaging technology is the only option you have.

...that make me go to the EFF and ACLU websites and donate money. Isn't there any chance that "imaging" citizens in this way is a form of unconstitutional search? Or have we just implicitly waived our rights by entering the airport?

As much as I dislike the trends in super-DRM'd game distribution, you have to respect a clear, open email with no bull**** and pretty good compensation to boot.

If the sending party is grandma, or perhaps they are located in a rural part of the country, then they probably aren't capable of doing that at the moment.

Other countries have been trialing technology that allows incoming mail to be scanned and transmitted electronically to the recipient. This seems like a great area for USPS to move towards, and would help them taper off residential delivery as the number of people who still demand dead trees in their mailbox dwindles.

What's going to stop them from continuing to flood the other TLD's and just redirect them to .xxx? WhiteHouse.com pointing to WhiteHouse.xxx seems to accomplish nothing. So the concern then is, of course, that soon you won't be able to exist as a porn operation in .com, and then it's a quick jump to lightswitch-style censorship of the entire .xxx TLD.
