  No mention at all

  The reason used to exclude the politicians from the photo would also be reason to exclude them in the reporting article. Writing that they participated in the signing of the bill still "advertises" for them. The newspaper editor must be sleeping on a pillow of uranium rods.

  What about the dead?

  Adding to the probability...even if he guessed 15 real SSNs what where the chances that the SSNs were living people? One would hope that being alive is important to collect aid...but we all know how the government handled that catastrophe. They couldn't wait to give away your tax dollars! I guess if the dead can vote then they can collect aid.

  Re: comparison to history

  Yeah! 2 Live Crew wasn't that good but the ban made this pre-teen and all his friends want to hear their album even more. Ah...the priorities of middle schoolers.

  What...no precedent?

  I can't believe Adobe hasn't long ago tried to sue using the pdf trademark with all the pdf creator programs out there like deskPDF, CutePDF, and so on.

• On the post: Is It Illegal To Tell People How To Commit Suicide Online?

  Re: What a bastard

  Making a suicide pact with somebody to get them to end their life knowing full well he never intended to do the same. Sheesh!
  
  As to the law in question, if someone specifically helps an individual, advising them directly, is how this law is worded. I would bet it would be perfectly legal to start up a website on how to kill yourself as long as it is mostly informational without advising individuals specifically. Probably would still draw the ire of law enforcement.

  Conflicted

  Samsung has been pretty good to me. Had a digital camcorder crap out on me which was not repairable. They sent us a new (later model also) for free. The only thing we paid was the $6 to ship the old unit to the repair shop. Also have a 5.1 dvd surround system from them. A few buttons on the remote stopped working. You could buy a new one for $60 but a simple call and they sent a new one free. And both these products were over 3 years beyond the warranty. Great customer service! I suppose the S.Korean government is a customer, too. =)

  Re: Constituents?

  we cannot have government secretes flowing through random computers around the world for that traffic to possibly be sniffed.
  
  That extra 'e' turns the entire sentence into a very disturbing analogy.

  Ban rentals!

  If there were no such thing as rentals then the only option would be to buy the DVD...or torrent. Choose your demise!

  Better see it in 3D while you still can

  How about people realizing that the DVD coming out would mean it would be exiting the theater soon? I could see wanting to see it in 3D again in the theater since it will be some time before you could duplicate that experience in home.

  Hmmm...an aural watermark? Sounds perfect for user tailored subliminal advertising.

  Re: Re: IRS Audit.

  The IRS made some change to my filing and they sent me $900 more than what I had as a refund on my taxes. Waiting to get a notice as to why...I am still skeptical since it made my total return more than the amount I paid in taxes the entire year.
