'Extreme porn' law could criminalise millions

Thumb Down

No more good laws left to pass...

This is whats keeping the average brit up at night? (no pun intended) So you must have solved all other societal problems then, and now you can concentrate on the real problem, what the `right` kind of porn is.

I am glad I live in Canada, you'll have to pry my extreme porn from my cold dead (although wonderfully soft) hands.

But seriously you brits are crazy.

I'd think the reason they offload it to another system is security related. If the keys don't exist in memory accessible to the operating systems processor it would make them much more difficult to compromise.

I could be wrong and they could just inflating the price by providing a hardware solution.

As an proud and happy apple owner, I have to warn everyone that iWorks '08 is the biggest bundle of sh!t they ever let off the line, they should rename it to iDontWorkWithAnythingButiWorks '08, as the default file format for pages is .pages (no converter for windows, no free viewer for mac or pc), and the only way to get a word doc out the other end is to export (not very user friendly at that). Not that I am condoning MS actions here, just lets call a spade a spade and a pile of sh!t a pile of sh!t, iWorks it does not.
