you know.... well.... I just don't know how to respond to this. You spend too much time on the internet formulating theories. Actually that should read, absorbing other people's theories. Yes, China is doing well right now. It probably is not from an overarching scheme to take over the world. Look at Japan in the eighties. They did well. Maybe China is doing well because they are making some right decisions. The are fucked up in many ways but they seem to be figuring stuff out economically. This is not a bad thing. Jingoistic shit like the tripe you are spewing just doesn't make any sense. Look at how dependent they are on our economy. You might want to look up, "THE FUCKING REAL WORLD AND HOW IT WORKS."

They were described as circular in shape with raised centers approximately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape, but only 3 feet tall dressed in metallic clothing of very fine texture."

EU Funding "Orwellian" Artificial Intelligence Snooping System 181

leonbenjamin writes "Britain's Telegraph reports on a five-year research programme, called Project Indect, which aims to develop computer programmes which act as 'agents' to monitor and process information from web sites, discussion forums, file servers, peer-to-peer networks and even individual computers. Its main objectives include the 'automatic detection of threats and abnormal behaviour or violence.' Shami Chakrabarti, head of the UK's Liberty human-rights NGO, said: 'Profiling whole populations instead of monitoring individual suspects is a sinister step in any society. ... It's dangerous enough at national level, but on a Europe-wide scale the idea becomes positively chilling.'"

(But Eka and the other judges concluded that simply endorsing the principles of copyright law was no grounds for disqualification in a trial; copyright was written into Swedish law, and judges can't be called "biased" simply because they support existing laws.
"The Court of Appeal has come to the conclusion that none of the circumstances set out, individually or taken together, means that there are legitimate doubts about the judge's impartiality in this case. There has not been any bias," concluded the court. The decision cannot be appealed")

Imagine the hideous analogies we can come up with. Judge A belongs to the bar association. Can he rule on lawyer misconduct? I am playing devil's advocate here and like I said I don't agree with the decision. I hope they win their appeal but I think human rights violation is a tad overboard. They still have their appeal.
