  Re:

  How exactly is Techdirt pushing that? What I see is them making fun of the idiots that propose such stupidity.

  Re:

  Easy to see why you post as "Anonymous Coward". You don't want anyone to see your blatant stupidity.
  
  He isn't saying to have one cop per person, you nonsensical moron. What he is saying is to have the judges stop giving nothing more than a meaningless slap on the wrist for unsafe driving. Cracking down simply means to give actual penalties to people that violate the existing laws. Little things like speed limits are so ignored now as to make them useless.
  
  I totally agree with Carlo and think that is exactly what needs to be done. People that ignore existing laws - will ignore new ones as well!

  Re:

  How did this go from "Sharing their own music with the world is a good thing" to "Blame Republicans!"
  
  I guess some people just want to be a victim. They just need to blame someone for something. So sad.
  
  How about we talk about sharing music here instead of trying to make everything a political attack? Hmm?

  Suck it up, princess!
  
  Facebook can easily show that it goes to great lengths to provide good account security to it's users. Try getting a Facebook account using the password "password" and it will summarily reject it and tell you to choose a better one. Most likely this user was a victim of either social engineering, or managed to get a sucky password even after the Facebook screening.
  
  Take some responsibility and help your own security. Instead of using "password" go with "PassW0rd=" or something. Still easy enough to remember, but much much harder to hack in any way.
