Even if clicking "OK" can really be consent that "you give legal permission for all your keystrokes to be sent to Microsoft" that can not possibly apply to anyone who may use your machine (or perhaps the licencene says you're not allowed to share your hardware with friends and family?) Only by insisting on the rights of the user we can protect ourselves from abuses of computer code (if not End User Agreements) as law. Choosing Free Software to keep controle of your computing. The "open Source" solution (ala Android) is a limp defence against malware or anti-features, what matters is that users should be in control of their machines rather than the proprietors of software having control over users. It is the war against users sharing that Gates Jobs and the rest have been waging that should be resisted as much as their attempts to enforce their own "sharing" of our information and habits (- along with Facebook, Google, and the rest build into their business models.)

North Korea's Satellite Tumbling In Orbit 257

schwit1 writes: U.S. Defense officials stated Tuesday that the satellite that North Korea launched on Sunday is now tumbling in orbit and is useless. Do not take comfort from this failure. North Korea has demonstrated that it can put payloads in orbit. From this achievement it is a very short leap to aiming those payloads to impact any continent on Earth. They might not be able to aim that impact very accurately, but if you want to ignite an atomic bomb somewhere, you don't have to be very accurate.
