Pretty much every gaming site picked it up and reported on it over and over again. They all also had stories specifically linking to the video that proved Sim City could easily be run offline as well. I also don't agree at all that the story has been pushed into the background. At least once a week I see another story about the Sim City debacle especially after the new update which apparently just made things worse.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130421/20110722794/red-sox-david-ortiz-unleashes-expletive-during-televised-speech-fcc-says-fk-it.shtml#c185 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 12:56:45 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130421/20110722794/red-sox-david-ortiz-unleashes-expletive-during-televised-speech-fcc-says-fk-it.shtml#c185 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130420/00321822776/why-dojs-decision-to-not-read-dzhokhar-tsarnaev-his-miranda-rights-is-terrible-idea.shtml#c2089 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 09:55:23 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130420/00321822776/why-dojs-decision-to-not-read-dzhokhar-tsarnaev-his-miranda-rights-is-terrible-idea.shtml#c2089 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130420/00321822776/why-dojs-decision-to-not-read-dzhokhar-tsarnaev-his-miranda-rights-is-terrible-idea.shtml#c2063 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 09:52:50 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130420/00321822776/why-dojs-decision-to-not-read-dzhokhar-tsarnaev-his-miranda-rights-is-terrible-idea.shtml#c2063
There is nothing to defend. No one with any kind of power anywhere in the country ever even once suggested limiting 2nd amendment rights. Regardless of what your leaders and the NRA tell you and you just blindly follow the constitution does guarantee you to own any and all weapons ever made. It was written when the world had nothing but muskets, so until guns have been limited to one shot muskets no one is even coming close to infringing on your rights.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120615/13250219347/interesting-strategy-rockstar-games-to-dump-cheaters-into-game-where-they-only-play-other-cheaters.shtml#c392 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 08:29:27 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120615/13250219347/interesting-strategy-rockstar-games-to-dump-cheaters-into-game-where-they-only-play-other-cheaters.shtml#c392 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120426/20294518676/wikileaks-truck-owner-arrested-photographing-police-told-it-was-because-he-was-dick.shtml#c706 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 07:50:07 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120426/20294518676/wikileaks-truck-owner-arrested-photographing-police-told-it-was-because-he-was-dick.shtml#c706 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120313/04350018087/megaupload-negotiating-to-let-us-govt-officials-everyone-else-retrieve-their-legit-files-that-were-taken-down.shtml#c79 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 13:39:41 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120313/04350018087/megaupload-negotiating-to-let-us-govt-officials-everyone-else-retrieve-their-legit-files-that-were-taken-down.shtml#c79 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120312/10480918076/help-fund-dont-mess-with-internet-billboard-lamar-smiths-district.shtml#c85 Mon, 12 Mar 2012 12:06:21 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120312/10480918076/help-fund-dont-mess-with-internet-billboard-lamar-smiths-district.shtml#c85 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120305/12390017992/too-bad-sxsw-shuts-down-useful-app-finding-new-bands-youd-like.shtml#c64 Mon, 5 Mar 2012 16:47:10 PST http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120305/12390017992/too-bad-sxsw-shuts-down-useful-app-finding-new-bands-youd-like.shtml#c64 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120229/13260617915/announcing-techdirt-book-club-starting-with-consent-networked-rebecca-mackinnon.shtml#c28 Thu, 1 Mar 2012 15:47:37 PST http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120229/13260617915/announcing-techdirt-book-club-starting-with-consent-networked-rebecca-mackinnon.shtml#c28 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120131/00110017595/warner-bros-just-keeps-pushing-people-to-piracy-new-deal-also-delays-queuing.shtml#c85 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 13:40:37 PST http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120131/00110017595/warner-bros-just-keeps-pushing-people-to-piracy-new-deal-also-delays-queuing.shtml#c85 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120129/23343317584/pro-sopa-folks-push-fact-challenged-op-eds.shtml#c74 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 13:01:15 PST http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120129/23343317584/pro-sopa-folks-push-fact-challenged-op-eds.shtml#c74
