• On the post: Bob Murray Demands John Oliver Be Silenced… While HBO Moves Case To Federal Court

  That "motion" just comes across as the whining of a nasty thin skinned old man who...gads, that sounds like some nasty thin skinned old man we all know who is overseas at the moment.

• On the post: Bob Murray's Lawsuit Against John Oliver Is Even Sillier Than We Expected

  

  Kronomex ( profile ), 23 Jun, 2017 @ 04:55pm

  I was nearly falling out of my chair laughing by the end of the "Worse yet, Defendants employed..." section. Murray's overall claim of defamation is even more hilarious than John Oliver's piece.

  RightsCorpse desperately trying to find new ways to plug the giant hole bleeding what little money they bring in?

  Does this smack of a certain person hiding behind the Anonymous Coward byline?

  While reading the housing troll article I thought that I hadn't seen anything about Hansmeier for a while. Lo and behold, a couple of turns of the mouse wheel and...

  How dare the little peons ask for Fair Use! Our gubmint is beholden to the golden pig troughs of the corporations and Rupert (all hail the Rupert). The reports might reccommend fair use but donations and Rupert (hail Rupert) speak louder.

• On the post: Trump Allegedly Wants FBI To Look Into Locking Up Journalists Who Publish Leaks

  

  Kronomex ( profile ), 19 May, 2017 @ 12:32am

  I see, lock up the journos and not the people within his own cabinet that are providing the leaks to the journos in the first place. Brilliant plan.

  Public? What public? You mean the little people who are there the bled dry by Comcast and Verizon and their ilk who can throw millions of dollars, via their lobbyists, at politicians? If the little people could throw millions of dollars at the same politicians then they would listen and, maybe, do something about the AT&T's and others. The pig trough of "donations" speaks much louder than the peons.

  They'll just burst in through the windows or rip the roof off the house instead. After the house falls down they can point at the untouched doors and congratulate themselves on keeping them safe and unharmed.

• On the post: Australian Mandatory Data Retention Abused Just Weeks After Rules Are Put In Place

  

  Kronomex ( profile ), 02 May, 2017 @ 05:11pm

  I call bullshit on the AFP "accidentally" breaching the Telecommunications Interception Act. One of our politicians, probably from the LNP, wanted information on the journalist. Any investigation will be perfunctory to the extent of almost non-existent and the AFP will be found to be blameless and get a soggy noodle slap on the wrist.

• On the post: No, The Wall St. Bull Sculptor Doesn't 'Have A Point'

  

  Kronomex ( profile ), 18 Apr, 2017 @ 04:58pm

  I've always seen the bull as an advertisement for Wall Street and see no need to change my view. Modica is just having a Princess Precious moment.

• On the post: New 'Perceptual' Ad Blocking Tech Doesn't Win The Ad Blocking War, But It May Put Advertisers On Their Heels… Permanently

  

  Kronomex ( profile ), 18 Apr, 2017 @ 04:49pm

  A recent new trick I've come across is when uploaders block the download because I dare to use an ad blocker. I'm not about to stop using script and ad blocking tools because bloody advertisers continue to whine about lost income. If a site wants to stop me from accessing them because I won't let them track me, bombard me with ads, etc then I am quite happy not visit it again.
  
  Will advertisers wake up? Not likely, they'll just continue to try and develop new ways to block the blockers and make themselves even more unpopular. I'm surprised they haven't started throwing pig troughs of money politicians (mostly Republicans no doubt) to put a stop to this dastardly crime be perpetrated upon them.

  Plainly and simply; the corporate pig trough will almost always win.

  A piddling amount of "compensation" will never remove the stigma that he must now live under for the rest of his life. What makes it even more repulsive is that they can't even use two words, "We apologise."
