• On the post: If You Can't Trust A Cop… 13-Year Veteran Of Seattle PD Makes Body Cameras For Cops

  I grew up in Chicago and Los Angeles and my experience with the Police makes me avoid them and never listen to them because I have been lied to so much by them in the past. I have never met an officer who puts the public needs ahead of the police union. Read about Katrina and the New Orleans Police. They are all the same. They lie, they steal, they prey on the homeless and they cheat. Even in the small cities you hear the nightmare stories of officers raping homeless girls and being allowed to do it for over 20 years. Trust them? I think not.

  Welcome to the public school system. Where as a student you learn all about the rights of Adults. There are no rights for minors. You are stuck with being underage and having no rights. You can't complain or fight back without Mommy and Daddy and chances are they are too damn busy trying to keep a roof over your head to help you. Sucks being young.

  Here you go. Develop and debug your android app using MIT servers. http://appinventor.mit.edu/
  Screw Apple and the public will soon let them know. How long do you think people will accept exorbitant prices, and year old technology? And to have top pay those high prices for two years. You must all be rich.

  I am more afraid of my government than any terrorist. My government has already done more damage and cost more lives than any terrorist in history. My war mongering government, over which I seem to have no control.

  Stay out of Kern County. They don't need tourism money. They have nothing to see. Deadland.

  The more you spy on me the more I will speak in code and only to friends that know the code. Everyone else will be an enemy and will be treated as such. With hostility. I promise to curse at my government daily through my phone, they will hear me. I promise to call those that are listening nasty names to their faces. Or in other words. I also promise to curse AT&T daily for the traitors they are. Strike a blow to freedom, cancel AT&T.

  Oh goody we finally get to watch all the laws the cops break in order to uphold the law. Liars! All of them. Politicians, Lawyers and Police all lie for a living. They were all trained by the best liars, the professors of law. Anybody ever notice how most politicians are lawyers? Double Liars!

  That's just like an idiot preacher. Yelling and Screaming about a bunch of crap he doesn't even know about. Totally out of touch and they wonder why God died. His disciples are thieves.

• On the post: Bad News: Court Says Cyberlocker & Its Owner Can Be Liable For Copyright Infringement

  The problem with cloud storage of your media or any other files is that it can be shared. The current method makes it too easy to give your friend access to your account simply by sharing your login (it's done all the time). Then you are inviting copyright infringement.
  If they would come up with a way to encrypt the user id in their individual copy of the software / app they use to access the cloud and do away with allowing you to share your files, then it can become viable. From a programming point of view this is very simple to implement and control. Imagine using your app to access your private files from your own devices and not having to login. It's so Easy it's ridiculous. But remember Computer Science 101 says any digital system can be compromised. It's only code.

  It's all because ComCast and Time Warner want to be your media distribution provider. They are working on making cable TV content available at anytime. So if you miss Sponge Bob you can watch it later just by saying Sponge Bob. If we could do away with TV scheduling we might not have to download anything because we could watch it anytime we choose. You know it would be great to sit down on Saturday and say Blue Bloods when I had time to watch it and I was awake, and voila there is the last Blue Bloods. Instead under the current system of scheduling they make you download, because if you missed the showing you have no other option. So I am a bad person because I download shows that were already shown on TV. I don't see what's wrong with that!

• On the post: Researchers Launch The Survey Bay; Largest Database Of Information On Users Of The Pirate Bay

  

  Shon Gale ( profile ), 29 Aug, 2013 @ 04:55am

  Yea I admit it. I use Pirate Bay. If I could I would advertise there. It's the busiest spot on the internet. I go there every day to see what new bands have uploaded their music. I don't care about their ads, who pays attention to ads anyway. You learn to get tunnel vision and just block the peripheral. Lot's of legitimate bands use Pirate Bay to promote themselves. I do it myself. Of course anything indie they want to stop. It's like prohibition all over again . All the crazies are out in force trying to force us to live the way they say. So In the immortal words of Arnold "Screw you".

  I mean really, are you guys still using Facebook? I love it! A rich guy from Harvard who has never related to a normal person one day in his life knows what the world wants? Cool! and I believe in the tooth fairy too.
  When is a real person from a real garage that has real people hanging out in it going to write a decent program to let me do it socially?
  Facebook sucks and after October 1st Google is going to suck. You will locked into your timeline with tons of targeted ads that have been culled from every other site you ever went to. Yuccccchhhhh.

  None of these government(s) will ever give up any of their power base to the people of their country. You can vote until you are blue in the face and you will never change a thing. Presidents change, Prime Ministers come and go, Kings and Queens live and die, but the policing and security structures always remain the same and are promoted from within. In other words these people don't work for you. They work for their power base, for their control.
  Remember we warned all of you during and after the Vietnam war about the lock they have on everything now. Remember we warned you about Big Brother, well he is here and he is watching and he is controlling the money, the power and your entire life. When we complained they gave us inflation.

  If you are under 18 in this country you have absolutely no freedom and you definitely have no rights. Why do you think we all ran away from home and school during the sixties. This is lightweight compared to their rules. Dress Codes. Marching in place. In High School. Yea teach them freedom, but don't let them practice it until you brainwash them all into believing they are free.
