  Then, when all those successful websites from "evil outside of america" will be down, American casinos will start selling online poker for you. It is not a legality issue, but a protectionism issue. The US has been like that for a while, why no do it on the internet too?

  Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Content ID the problem?

  Suzanne, I know you're trying hard to answer but I think you're still missing the point, of course if Rumblefish disapears the problem would also disappear, because step 5 would have never happened.
  
  The problem is that a human at Rumblefish confirmed company ownership of a wrongly identified video. If Rumblefish wouldn't have confirmed it, then there would have been no problem.

  What the hell? Is it still cool to say so much uninformed things about Microsoft softwares? http://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/web_server/all
  
  Only an uneducated fool can make a IIS server crash. Likewise, an uneducated fool can make an Apache server crash. The only difference: with Microsoft software, and idiot can actually use it.

  Re:

  So they make it less obvious to the casual observer whilst in the background developing more intrusive strategies. Consumer information aggregation across businesses has the potential to take creepy to the next level. I'm not sure if it is even demonstrably cost effective for a business or whether these people just simply like to spy on everyone.

  
  
  That my friend, is a really good question.

  Re: Re: Incorrect Context

  The interesting thing is seeing him get squashed higher in the thread and not answering when he gets pressed to answer a simple question, so let's repeat it:
  
  Please cite just one title of a published, peer-reviewed paper, or the name and version of a scientific data source that was altered, fudged, faked, or in any way affected by "climategate".

  Re: Boxed In Already

  Let's repeat:
  
  

  Would you care for some syrup with all that waffling?
  
  You said:
  
  "3. I believe "AGW" and it's "implications" to be unsettled science that is grossly exaggerated."
  
  *YOU* define what "gross exaggeration" of science is, since you made the claim you must know what the criteria is. Then tell me what evidence you personally would need to see to convince you that it's not "grossly exaggerated".
  
  You're the one making the claims, you provide the specific parameters. If I define a framework then after I box you in you'll simply claim that I rigged the definition and "tricked you".
  
  The longer you draw out the thread with waffling and equivocation the less credibility you'll have (and shills don't have much credibility to spare as I'm sure you know)
  
  I already know how the thread will end (a bit boring really) I'm just making sure people see for themselves how baseless/flimsy/unsupported/irrational claims of fraud and exaggerations in the science are.
  
  If I told people that you wouldn't be able to answer a simple question about your own personal opinion they'd have good reason to doubt me. However, if I demonstrate it using actual members of the anti-science crowd, well, they tend to consider their own eyes a pretty reliable source.

  Re: Why do we need SOPA again?

  SOPA was "needed" to make sure that that repercussions from a warrentless move like that from GoDaddy would be safe from any legal repercussions whatsoever.
  
  Scary.
