They ask you to log in to your Facebook account before they even know you. If this happened to me, I would refuse and then politely excuse myself.

I would imagine the opposite. They are not a software company. They make most of their money on hardware.

I would imagine that the iWallet could be remotely revoked.

Being methylated activates the gene. It depends on the context if it is good or bad. For example, a growth gene might be good during development, but might be bad in the case of cancer.

OP taking issue with Obama's betrayal of his duty to uphold the American Constitution, specifically the Fourth Amendment, *isn't* name calling. It is arguing the issue.

Almost every Android phone also has the ability to install a custom ROM that does not include any extra apps, including the google ones.

Since android is open source, there are ROMs that actually add this functionality to the OS. It was available on Cyanogenmod 7.1.0, for example.

It goes to Amazon in addition to Google.

The Democrats are currently to the right of Ronald Reagan on most policies, but that is not because they have taken over the GOP. It's true that Democrats are now championing formerly Republican platforms, but the GOP is moving things even further to the right.

Copyright is evil because it puts a monopoly on culture. I'll argue that if older material were released to the public domain as the founders intended, there would be more than enough free material to bring down piracy on newer creations. People pirate the new stuff because the old stuff has been out of print for so long (which benefits no one), they've forgotten about it. Put it in the public domain rather than let it gather dust.

Let's not pretend that this is a partisan issue. Obama wouldn't investigate illegal activities of the former Republican administration. In fact, he retained many of Bush's people despite running on a platform of "change". Republicans and Democrats are different sides to the same coin. They have no interest in stopping corruption.

I think the 'online' part assumed that traveling through a series of tubes was a per-requisite.

I'm pretty sure that ALEC (http://www.alec.org/), or similar groups, write our laws. Our legislators are merely paid to propose them and vote them up or down.

The idea that tax cuts lead to job growth has a decade long track record of failure, but is still the leading republican platform for job creation. The whole party is far out of the mainstream.

But they're owned by Google now.
