That indemnifies a government agent/agency. So the CBP officer cannot be tried as an accessory. But you're still F'd.

The law doesn't make an exemption for social media. Facebook is a multi billion dollar company and it's TOS is very clear.
Because it's against the TOS, it's against the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. CBP is asking people to commit a felony. The United States Court of Appeals held just last year that sharing password and allowing access contrary to the TOS is a violation. There are people in PRISON right now for commit this crime. I would not recommend doing it and Facebook should make a statement that what DHS is proposing is against the law.
If DHS wants to do this they need to ask congress to add an exemption to the CFAA.
Other countries do. In particular Canadian border officials have a habit of asking the same thing. In the US however CPB is actually asking people to commit a Felony.
Most social networks (like Facebook) expressly forbid sharing passwords or allowing others to use your account. Because that's the policy it becomes a Felony according to the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA). The United States Court of Appeals has affirmed sharing accounts contrary to the TOS is a violation of the CFAA and there are people in PRISON as we speak for doing just that.
I would contend that you cannot be compelled to commit a felony by a agent of the United States. If DHS wants this power they need to have the CFAA amended to grant them an exemption.
It's not a talking point. Trump had a white paper on this. He plans to offer a $137bn tax credit to incentivize privatization of roads and infrastructure. Corporations aren't charities. Privatization means toll roads and bridges.
Yeah.. when Trump says he's going to put a Trillion Dollars into infrastructure he's not going to do it with tax payer dollars. He'll sell the roads to private interests who will use them as toll roads.
This has nothing to do with Trump. This is the exact same bill Issa introduced last session. GOP leadership wouldn't put it up for a vote then and they aren't going to put it up for a vote this time. The bill they are interested in removes all HB1 caps. Trump has said he wants to go to a market based bid system for visas.
I've tried using that keyboard several times and it's just doesn't make the cut. If they would have left the thickness they could have had better keyboard travel and better battery life.
Foxconn is a Taiwanese company. They have no obligation to keep mainland Chinese workers employed.
There are some very large Ivory markets in NYC. There's a lot of fake paperwork that says it's old pre-ban or Mammoth ivory. There was a bust back in September of millions of dollars of illegal ivory. It's really only the surface.
LG doesn't own most of it's service centers. Most of them are independent repair centers that service several brands. Having been a warranty tech in the past I can attest we don't get reimbursed for "research" work. If LG wants to see what's going on then they would ask us to replace the control board and send them broken part. Most likely they'll just force a wipe and firmware flash. OP should have bought a TV with an onsite warranty.
HAHAHA. Given the GOP has a bill floating around to remove all H1-B caps color me not impressed.
Lucky? I can't speak to the West Coast, but here in the Midwest it's a job seekers market. Companies are lucky to get people for interviews.
Amazon does tend to hire young with slight under market salaries and a big carrot of stock back loaded. Getting put on a PIP means the dude threw away however many years at Amazon and was going to lose his stock. He could have made more and worked less somewhere else.
On the other hand there are parts of Amazon that hire older PhDs and have a slower R&D pace. But that's the exception, not the norm.
I think you mean Foxconn.
