I see this daily crossing roads in central London. Even where cyclists have their own protected lane with its own special cyclist traffic lights I often encounter cyclists at speed running the red light and swerving to avoid the pedestrians on the crossing. If, as a cyclist, you ever wonder why cyclists get bad press, these are the idiots you have to thank. (Yes I know in this case the cyclist had a green light, but you don't just barrel through a crowd of people who are still crossing.)

There are many pedestrian crossings (crosswalks) in the area around London Bridge, I'm not sure if the markings differ from those in Germany. Many are just part of a junction traffic-light system so may not be obvious.

Actually you have those back-to-front, the pelican has the traffic lights, the zebra just has constantly flashing amber beacons and a black and white striped road surface. There are also Toucan and Puffin crossings if anyone cares https://www.highwaycodeuk.co.u...

Not necessarliy big in tech, but Israel _are_ big in security.

No, firewalls and application layer filters would be needed to prevent the use of GoogleDocs, privacy issues won't even get a look-in at the level they're considering especialy as the user'll do what ever works easiest for them regardless. I've seen how UK Local Government works up close.

When you pay someone to be sneaky and devious, it should't come as a surprise when it turns out they've been sneaky and devious.

Why don't they just snoop the needed information off the contractor's network?

I don't object to survellance by GCHQ, I'd just like it to be targeted rather than blanket ... and carried out _within_ the framework that parliament agreed rather than finding loopholes that allow it to work _outside_ that framework.

Call me old-fasinoned, but I still believe the only way to ensure that the terrorists don't win is for the country to take it on the chin when terrorists strike and then carry on as normal. Anything else, any knee-jerk reaction, any retalliation, any security or survelliance clamp-down that dissrupts peoples day-to-day lives and the terrorists have already won, they got what they wanted. The trouble is the terrorists aren't the only ones with a vested interest in that outcome.

Probably not. Obviously it's the (cr/h)acker that's to blame. Never mind that _they_ left the front door open.

I was just pointing out that on ARM it can't be assumed to be the case, so saying

is not true

Unless you're on ARM, in which case it won't be, so no, it's not always optional.
