French pass 'three strikes' file-sharing law

kain preacher

What happens ??

If a manufacture screws up and leaves a back door in your router ???

The "Hallyday clause" therefore stipulates that illegal downloading where the author of the downloaded work resides in a tax haven – or is otherwise avoiding the proper payment of taxes – will not be subject to the same sanction as it would otherwise attract.

That's just insane

Google to fund 'video Street View' for Central London

At first

At fir st I thought this was real. Then it hit me.. We would able to see granny get robbed as the local police are eating doughnuts and cant be bothered .

"Does that mean if someone sends me child porn I can go to jail, even if i abhor it?"

"but just being sent it I doubt would be covered by the law."

If you are in possession of it when the cops come yes . Think of it like this. If I send a pound of weed to 100 Clifford Ave but I mess up and say 100 Clifford St, the person at 100 Clifford st is screwed if the cops find out. Does not matter. You are in possession

"Exactly! Surely, even in the US, it is illegal to confiscate someone's personal media and then peruse them without a warrant or similar?"

First off minors have less rights than adults. Secondly it was done in school. Schools have the right to confiscate items from students that is on the prohibited list . Here is another twist. Do to the rabid nature of the anti drug people, it was decided in some states that a minor would have no legitimated use for pagers /cell phones in school setting . There for the made it illegal for minors to have them on school grounds

But he did use the word "traveller" I believe the author made a typo when he typed traveling and left out an "l". Rarely have I ever seen a letter by an American that had the heading good day. Letters are more commonly started with the greeting hello in America .

"They're legal to use in the US but even private security firms deploy them incredibly rarely because they're so discredited"

Whoa there buddy. polygraph are not admissible in a court of law in the US. The only people that can be forced to take a poly are CIA, NSA ,FBI, or any one else whose job deals with national security. Then the poly is used for pre-employment questioning, and then for internal investigations to see weather you want to fire the guy or proceed with criminal charges .

PC buyers fail to prove MS deceived in Vista 'Capable' suit

kain preacher

Hmm

Wasn't the PC manufactures that put the stickers on the PC ?? So why are we blaming MS for this. its the PC manufactures that should be held to the fire .

Juror tweets could force retrial

kain preacher

@EvilGav

Don't the legal team from both sides have to agree which jurors to have on the jury

You have been watching to much TV. You are limited to how many jurors you can get rid of with out cause. Once you reached that number you must show cause(give a valid legal reason), and you cant say it because you think he/she is bias. Its up to the judge what cause is .

HP skims another 10% off some EDS workers' pay packets

kain preacher

@raving angry loony

guess they're doing it in the US only simply because the US system allows them to screw their workers over like that, whereas civilized countries that aren't trying hard to return to the days of slave labour tend to make such actions a little more difficult.

Really , then how come this all started in the UK. You are just being a wanker . The message is loud and clear if you work for EDS you will get screwed . No mater what country you are in

Like saying they are an American business man but use British spelling . Hmmm why are spelling it colour, tyre . My favorite is when they clearly have no knowledge the region . Classic craigs list scam. I need some to house sit and collect money from( yes he said from instead of for. Its the little things that trip them up ) me. Then he sent my a generic picture of a house . Only one problem house in San Francisco rarely have parking on both side of the street . The road looks like its regular maintained. Any one in the area would fall out laughing seeing what suppose to be a house in SF with grass gowning in the front lawn . Well unless its the kind you smoke . The kicker was the huge back yard with a pool.

@Ascylto

Planned Parenthood's origins are in Eugenics ... originally to erase black people from the planet

Try again . Eugenics was about people under a certain IQ, not race base. I read exactly what you said. I didn't twist any thing to fit it into a box. You made a statement. I called you on it and then you try to back pedal by saying you meant some thing else when that clearly not what you typed .

Obese cost London fire brigade £300k

kain preacher

Leave them there

If they can't be moved from their house etc. then just leave them there to starve until they can move again (or never move again), and if they are treated, bill them and up the amount of tax they pay..

Hmm that will work. Cardiac arrest. Hey you lazzy bastard get your ass into the ambulance .

he is not moving cause he is dead ..

The people that should be prosecuted are the ones that keep on feeding them. Like Ms Bee said its mental condition. Feeding them beyond what the need after they can't move is the same as leaving and elder person in fecal soaked clothing. Only Difference is you would have compassion for an elderly person that has lost their mental faculties .

It is possible to boot leg your own album. That's done when you sale(distribute with out permission) your own album but do not pay your label.

Say I know it sound crazy but the artist still need permission from the label to distribute their own works unless they owns the masters
