I’m sorry but that seems intensely silly. The US did not fight the Vietnamese, Iraq or Afghan Navy.

I’m sure there are lots of steam achievements with only one person or no people having gotten them. They belong to games like this one; games that no one plays.

Well, if you want to simplify everything down to a nice sound bite, I’d say that nothing is ever truely “secure”. It’s all a matter of time and computing power.

Yes, just as there’s no problem with search and seizures with a warrant. Whether it’s a warrant or other court order, judicial supervision is involved. The issue isn’t searches with a warrant/court order, it’s warrant less searches.

Obviously, these people didn’t just come up with this idea for the massacre themselves. By accessing the phone, they would have the potential of identifying more people involved or possibly preventing future attacks. Would you be OK with yourself if another terrorist attack happened, but the information on that phone…

First off, Fuck You. You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.

And fuck you for protecting criminals. Seriously, so many people are so paranoid in this day and age.

I know Anthony Scalia is the bete noire of the bien pensant types that write for Gawker blogs, but the man was far more than the arch-conservative stereotype that you will all bang your spoons over. No single Justice was a more consistent defender of the 1st and 4th Amendments (he upheld flag burning as legitimate…

No doubt that many Gawker Media readers cannot see through their ideological glasses and recognize a great legal mind. I didn’t agree with many of Scalia’s opinions but he was as consistent as any SC justice. I hope those dancing on his grave will remember this when their beloved RBG dies and the conservatives start…

I don’t see what he initially said as endorsing colonialism in any way. He was referring to what he sees in this case as India incorrectly identifying something as colonialism when it’s not, which he says has been bad for India economically — in other words, he’s saying that India has improperly prejudged Free Basics…

It’s rather novel to be called an idiot by someone who thinks a man should be immune to prosecution solely because he runs a website you like.

Lololol... Ok, you were trolling, you got me. But you are projecting a little too much. It gave you away.

More people asked their opinion than asked you yours. Of all the things that they are tasked with, this one is legitimate. The fact that they published the document shows that they are not only concerned with government data, but civilian use of the same techniques. This has potential implications far outside the…

Despite the fact that the US has not charged him with anything nor asked the UK to extradite him. Assange is a narcissistic asshole with delusions of grandeur.

I hate to break it to you but, with the right technology, license plates are large enough to be read from space. This “from space” modifier isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be. Seen with the naked eye from the Moon, on the other hand, would be noteworthy.

I don’t think you really know what the hell you’re talking about..

The vast majority of companies don’t have the luxury of a mega profitable segment kicking off $23 billion of operating income.

So a book about a guy who devoted his life to free information is $15.40 on Amazon?

Oh, now I’m really confused. You’re not a lawyer, yet you’re arguing with a lawyer who practices in the same county and district as all these folks about whether this case was winnable in 2005. Why?

I’m sorry, what did you think Mutually Assured Destruction meant? That was the whole point. Nuclear deterrence is all about the idea that if you attack, you won’t have a country left, even if you “win”.
