Re: And what does Assange say?

He has his freedom, he chooses not to use it.

There were also cases of hotel booking sites charging more and offering more expensive rooms to Apple users.

Arrive at site on iPhone, 5* rooms offered, other rooms 10% more expensive.

Arrive on a Droid, get 3 star rooms and normal prices.

Arrive on a Winphone, get offers on an abandoned cabin in the wilderness

Re: can anyone really get

I get roughly the same on my 4G in the UK, in fact it was higher on my Winphone. That said, I can hit the mast with a stone from where I live.

Dude, you download Chrome?

Re: the Morissette Scale?

Ring-a-Ring-of-Roses could also be ironic in that it's a nursery rhyme for young children about the black death.

Actually, these days, its pretty much confirmed as having nothing to do with the Plague.

Google, Amazon and Microsoft already know way more than the government.

Do you think the government knows your taste in music, what foods you like, the clothes you like to wear, what your favourite furniture store is an what news articles you read?

It the government that would like the information these guys have, not the other way round.

They may well have that clause, but the customer has a much more powerful one.

FU I'm out of here.

Re: Add it to the pile of coal.

French cars have always been crap. That tear down for a light bulb just reminds me of Renault 5 turbos of the 80's

Even a 306 removing the battery was PITA.

So what mail client prevents you attaching the wrong form?

They've been around 20 years, they just act like children.

Ah but you unsubscribed from promotions@welovetospam.com, this is from offers@welovetospam.com

"If it is "via access to device" that is only on individual subjects and most likely authorized by court order or an equivalent procedure as required by the local legal intercept laws. "

Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaa haaaaaaaaaa..

Like that will be the case.

Re: carrying out an "act of communication" when it links to torrent files

Last I knew, roads were not a money making entity, fully aware of which car is carrying a terrorist, removing non-terrorists and filtering off terrorists that were not willing to blow themselves up. Then indexing terrorists by type; knife man, shooter or suicide vest.

Try again.

Re: @Circadian

Brilliantly flawed aurguement.

"Its a nice soundbite, but the truth is we don't have an absolute right to say whatever we want in a public arena"

"There are limits on freedom of speech just as there are with privacy."

But I'm arguing for privacy, so I can be as racist, sexist and homophonic as I want in private, you are saying more things should be made public, so where do you draw the line?

A Private Facebook group (oxymoron I know)

Emails?

Word documents on a local pc?

Someones thoughts?

"We've had talk of grey-noise trials in our office -"

This is actually a well known Contact Centre technique.

Noise volumes in a "quiet" office soon escalate, as people get distracted by the people talking next to them, so raise their voice a little more in order to zone in on their conversation...then the people around them raise theirs. Rinse and repeat.

By introducing a base level sound, you are less distracted by other peoples conversations, and so so you tend not to raise your own voice.

So ironically, having noise introduced at a set level actually reduces overall noise in the environment.

Re: Re Ivan 4

"and using a thumb drive that has been checked on two stand alone computers "

And what has checked those PC's?

It's like the warning light to say a light is out....but what checks the warning light is working?

Re: Who made your TV ?

This is nothing new, it was the same reason that you'd find a Currys next to a Dixons. You'd go into one, then try the "competitor" next door and buy from the cheapest.

Or more likely the script kiddies get caught. He / She does not.
