You are so wrong. The real danger is geeks bare in gifs
I looked into it (math undergrad) and I devised a way to shorten the lengthy spacetravel to Mars from 3 months to 1 + i months! Now, the only thing I have to do is to think of a way that lets people travel in complex time, but I think that it won't be too hard to solve.
Woo, no packet loss!
Goatse troll. Mod down. Now excuse me while I throw up.....
The government is bounded to doing one single thing at a time. They have, if they are skilled at it, the ability to multi-task like no other because they command a large army of civil servants.
When analysing a revolution there is rarely one single thing that determines the success or failure of overthrowing the seated power. A (current) government therefore has the interest in controlling the flow of information in the broadest sense of the word. If Muburak and his cohorts have paid attention to the role of internet in the flow of information to a new generation(with new predominantly people under 30 years), they will make damn sure that they restrict access to unfavourable information, in this case the french dial-in ISP. In fact, if I was an employee of the digital division of the government of Mubarak(and loyal), I would immediatly place a phonecall to the person who has the ability to monitor/block this address.
This factor might be one of them that determines whether this revolution will become like the one in Tunesia or the one in Iran.

Until the user decides to compare his blocked page with blocked pages from other letters or does a binary search for the forbidden word. Glad they thought this through.

Because the binary code is palindromic I think it is a symbol more than a message. In heraldry, symmetry can be an style in your weapon and looking at the weapon itself, it is vertically symmetric. Including a message in binary code in your motto could be an idea but since the weapon already has a motto (namely "Comtemplare Meloria") it can be seen as sort of an achievement and could indicate knowlegde(or degrees) in the area of computer science.
I am not fully sure what to think about this weapon since it is certainly a non-standard one but my best guess is that people are looking for to much into the binary code as a message.
You know what really happens when you throw a frog in a cauldron with boiling water? Its muscles contract and it will be unable to get out in time and boil alive.
However, if you gradually heat the water the frog will notice that the water has become an undesirable temperature and will get out before it boils.
I agree with your theory but your analogy is dead wrong.
Like making Discovery Channel an interesting channel to watch again. I am not interested in (*City) Ink or in a cake-baking italian. No more seasons of crab/lobster/nessie fishing. I want the interesting stuff back again, learning things I wouldn't have learned otherwise. I will tolerate endless Rex Hunt reruns if this would be the case.
But no, mister hostage taker has some sort of higher goal here. Typical.
earthly way of knowing
Which direction they are going!
There's no knowing where they're rowing,
Or which way they river's flowing!
Not a speck of light is showing,
So the danger must be growing,
For the rowers keep on rowing,
And they're certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing...
I didn't know that Dell owned a naval fleet.
Always leave room to add an explanation if it doesn't work out.
