Actually, grade-school children can factor really large prime numbers in their heads. The trick is factoring the product of two really large prime numbers in your head without knowing either of the primes. You can get two of the factors (one and the product) but neither of those is particularly useful to the problem at hand.

Just FYI, it's the product of two secret primes. Product is for multiplication, while sum is for addition.

But the jurors are the ones who would have to decide that. So again, it's all up to the jury. And they don't come back with a verdict of "nullification"--they need only come back with the verdict that nullification would imply.

Programmers from the 70s would laugh at that statement.

That means Windows is a better product than Linux, right? Same for OS X?

I'm not sure what "harmless" means here--IANAL--but the harm from failure to disclose could have to do with the other party not knowing about the evidence. Since Apple introduced the evidence in open court, it's hard to imagine that they don't know about said evidence.

Yup. This is why competition is good for consumers.

This is truly the year of the Android tablet.

Politicians criminalized drug use and sales. They are clearly the reason that the market for drugs has to go underground.

When the government is creating the problem, it's perfectly reasonable to rest the blame there.

This is really odd, because usually this kind of response comes up when someone wants the government to help them in some way (providing food, shelter, health care) instead of when the government is restricting what people do (selling drugs, leasing their bodies.)

I doubt it, but I'm not sure what the relevancy of that question is.

It might be feasible to do something like that with AppArmor. To be honest, I'm really not sure.

So do you actually install it as a different user, or do you just feel warm and fuzzy that they can't modify your system, even though most of what you probably care about exists within your user account?

Even if you install it as a different user, you would need to log out of your main account every time (or, I suppose, run a secondary X server) as the rights required to display to your X server pretty much give full access to your account.

But sometimes actions are illegal only if they are non-consensual. Agreeing to a EULA might be considered consent.

Obviously.

I was just answering the question. "Sometimes" a regular person can do it. Of course it should be a last resort.

Real data recovery places are too expensive for the average person to use. I think there's a middle-ground between your two extremes.
