  on Judge Says Americans Can Be Forced To Decrypt Laptops

  I guess I'd be sitting in jail for contempt as I would never give out such information on principal.
  
  How long can you be kept in jail for contempt?

  Re: It's because Steve is the new Messiah

  on Apple Says That You Can't Give Away A 'Free' iPad Or iPhone In A Contest

  "By divine right..."
  Well that may apply to sheep.
  
  Steve can do what he wants, but we certainly do NOT have to go along with it.
  
  Leave that to the sheep.

  on Can A Judge Force A Juror To Reveal Facebook Account Info?

  Seems that the guy is already in contempt with or without the faceplant information.
  
  But without seeing the actual posts we don't know if the actual case was discussed or not.

  I'm no lawyer, but...

  on 50 Cent Using Twitter To Pump Up Stock… But Is It Legal?

  It sounds like a felony to me.
  And he knows it, too late to take it back now.

  I can find no sympathy

  on Press Realizing That Treatment Of Bradley Manning Is Indefensible

  I can't feel much for Manning. I believe he is a traitor to his country.
  
  We need to get him tried and convicted and move on. This should be tried as a capital offense because of the level of potential damage.

  on Monster Cable Issues Yet Another Bogus DMCA Notice To A Search Engine

  Nah, Monster cable is so good they can create content on the wire, on the fly, no need for anything but the cable and a TV.
  
  Heck, it's no harder to believe than all their hype (for a normal person).

  What if the software was never accessed

  on Court Rules That It's Legal To Sell Promotional CDs

  It seems to me (I have not read the ruling, no time) that if I receive the CD for free, but never even put it in a drive then I could give away or sell the CD as I see fit. The recipient would then hold the licence if they access the disk.

  Sociopaths are like that

  on Cooks Source Editor Gives First Interview; Says She'll Probably Shut Down The Magazine

  I once asked a sociopath if he was sorry for his crime.
  
  His answer was "I'm sorry I got caught". He had no remorse or feelings for the victim at all.
  
  I strongly suspect that this nasty bitch has no concern for anyone or anything but her self.
  
  Hoping she goes down hard.

  Remembering Go Daddy

  on Monster Cable Gets Classifieds Search Engine Taken Down With Bogus DMCA Notice

  My first experience with Go Daddy was several years ago when I was investigating Fake AV sites. At that time 3 of 4 fake AV sites that I investigated were hosted by Go Daddy.
  
  Since that time I consider Go Daddy to be TOXIC and to be avoided like the plague.

  a different take

  on China's Main Newspaper Complains That The iPad Is Too Damn Legal

  IMHO What they really mean is that the device is a money maker ripe for cloning, but it's too hard to ripoff.
