If I were Facebook, I'd put the surveys on an a server like advertising.facebook.com. That way they wouldn't put surveys to the people using advertising blocking proxies.

Don't survey the people that would likely give results you don't want. Then you can change the wording so Mom and Pop generate the answer you'd like.

So then companies will contract out to individuals to make calls for them. Same problem.

In order to pilot a plane, you have to be certified pilot. Flight rage anyone?

Similar to the Mythbusters Jet Pack. Assuming it can carry enough fuel to get somewhere, it won't ever be allowed because there isn't enough of a safety margin.

I can see how they could do it, but the implications are creepy.

They could have an app or query my phone. It'd reply with my GPS position and that the signal strength to 4 towers by name/ID. Enough tags like that, they can identify the towers in 3D space and go from there.

Enough tags like that and location can be found just from tower information.

Okay, I'll bite on this one. Thank you for posting, Gellenburg.

I've had to go through hoops to get information to a customer and had to run around/through the IT department blocking my email. We had a time crunch, and it wasn't that sensitive of information, but policies were preventing me from sending, and we couldn't wait for IT to change rights to permit me to send this data. Sending ZIP files, for instance, was unpacked and scanned and blocked if the contents were funny. I used an unexpected archive format (my own).

I can easily see where you could detect the file names or database footprint of, say, a payroll database file. How good would your system be at finding the same data exported to spreadsheet format first?

Without compromising your system, what have you detected, and what couldn't you detect?

Thanks

How do we all balance out saying that its important to vote at the same time as saying that both candidates are the same?
Should more time be spent on deciding president, or senator, or governor or mayor?

Put the camera up in the ceiling in the corner and lower the resolution a bit.

Farther away and slightly out of focus. You can't distinguish anyone, and just know how big the crowd is. That's what you want.

by the government sending them a letter saying how much is owed.

The government does all the calculations.

I thought he had some saw blades in a cylinder on the inside of his coat.

Don't remember the title/author, but there was a book where the rest of the galactic universe was relatively at peace because all their planets had only ONE continent, so there was no division of ecosystems on land.

For those that still want to see this, the video needs Flash Player 9, and shut of Privoxy.

Profs:
If you want to ban laptops, then you need to go after cell phones, pagers, and everything else a student can bring in. I don't care about the result, as long as its uniform.
You may be required to change your teaching methods, to engage more students.

Students:
If you can't pay attention in class, it could be that's your problem. You may need to focus on the class and not care what screensavers are running on laptops, since you'll have to do the same thing when you are done with school.
Or gang up on the Facebook students and ask them to be more polite.
