Isn't the surest form of protection to not log user activity in the first place?

Yes, exactly. This is the part that really gets me. Star Wars in its original format is, as you said, *important*.

It wasn't just a breakthrough film -- it was one of *the* breakthrough films. Lucas is denying himself his own place in history.

What he achieved through sweat, brilliance and vision -- he replaced with common, everyday CG that doesn't even look very good. His scenes are now cluttered, disjointed and look out of place with the rest of the film.

He took film history and replaced it with yet another season's standard fare. One would think that Lucas' enormous ego would encourage a re-release of the originals, not prevent it.

Why not just print up some DVD's and sell those!

Wikipedia *is* a database. This is like proposing a search engine for "data"....oooh! Sounds amazing!

100% vaporware. But please don't tell the VC guys who got bamboozled. They're just figuring it out and hoping to pass the buck to a greater fool.

ActionScript is no longer ANYTHING like JavaScript. Argument: Fail.

Give it a break. How on Earth did you not get modded, Troll? Are you saying that the developers who made YouTube (Flash based), Google Analytics (Flash based) and 99% of games which have taken the web by storm (Flash based), just don't know how to write "correct" code?

Every time somebody sends me a link of something supposedly "impressive" in HTML5, it looks weaker than old FutureSplash 1.0 stuff.

One wonders if Google can trace anyone who has previously used this technique to remove competitors from the index.

It would be fascinating to see just who has been a bad boy.

One would think that a country already so thoroughly invisible on the international stage would do whatever possible to promote visibility. Nice work, Belgian media. You've actually managed to erase yourselves from search.

A 6 digit, all alpha, all lowercase password, made from real words.

While it's entirely possible the password would have been hacked if the password was 16 alpha-numeric-punc chars, it's hard to by sympathetic to Vodaphone when they're this sloppy.

Swarm behavior requires a mutual awareness between devices. This is simply a remote control which affects a large number of units. The problem with this approach is that it only works initially, but random differences in movement become magnified over time. Since each bot movement includes a random margin of error (think: drunkard's walk) the "swarm" will dissipate over time and show less cohesion. In true swarm behavior, each individual actor (bot, in this case) is aware of the greater swarm.
