Yeah, I lived in England during the IRA bombings and they never reacted as scared as this. 9/11 is when America went from "Home of the Brave" to "Home of the afraid". It was used as a government power grab of our individual rights and freedoms in the name of security. It was the beginning of the "Forever War".

I mean getting the people affected by the social media ban to say they aren't going to watch (18 to 30 is the desired demographic) or buy sponsor's products. Unless the sponsors are motivated to change there will be no change.

A good reason to form a FaceBook boycott of the Olympics. If people say they won't watch maybe the advertizers will demand change.

There is going to be a market for a super-secure digital vault that is outside of all nations legal influence. It doesn't meant that the US gubment won't still try to sieze their DNS records or something but you can always get there by using an IP address..

They should buy a mobile phone company and torpedo the price structure for mobile data plans. They should buy Sprint or T-Mobile.

Try turning on the encryption just for your password to you ISP provided email account. Oops, now you can't log in any more. When they won't let us use even the most basic security for our accounts how are we supposed to be secure?

I think they meant Billion.

I won't buy!

Half the population has an IQ LOWER than 100. Just sayin...

They could easily have a Shared Calendar in a Public Folder in Exchange or one on a SharePoint server. Just because it doesn't start with an "i" doesn't mean that the IT department can't get it to support an iPhone. iPhones are what most of the folks I support use and I have no Apple products.

Hardware: SanDisk, Nikon and Sony are Developing a 500MB/sec 2TB Flash Card specification

There, fixed that for you.

Sure they can. It doesn't have to be jamming. It could force "airplane mode" for all phones in a car. It's easy to determine if a bluetooth or cellular signal is coming from inside or outside a vehicle, you just need 3 or 4 directional antennas at the perimiter of the car. The no communication mode could be enforced if the car was moving more than 5mph for example. Think a little bigger, these are more like computers than the phones of old, anything is possible.

Test the theory out on the space station. They have had a fair share of issues with their solar panels, maybe this alternate power supply could create enough energy to not only run the space station but some ion rockets to keep it in the proper orbit.

Agreed, a strong installation document, good Dev and Test environments, separation of duties between programmers and installers and strong change control make a MUCH more stable environment.

I think the word that should be here is animosity (i.e. hatred) and not antipathy (dislike). My $.02.
