What did he expect?

With a dog like that?

My dog could have had his AND a badger at the same time

Paris, because shes a dog that sucks

Most of the responses on this page

Show exactly why its so hard to get trusted in this industry.

90% of the workers in it have no idea what they are talking about and tend to follow whomever posted first like sheep.

Can we get one REAL reason why this is bad?

no, because there ISNT one.

If your machine/bandwith cant support this, then you would probaly have problems with browsing anyway, sort your own house out first.

Blacklists? OMFG!! do you actually know what a blacklist/whitelist is? Or how it is updated? (well done for cutting a pasting a cool looking word though!!)

DA INTERWEB ANALYTICS IS BROKEN!!!, yawn, show me a websense report that makes real accurate sense and I will accuse you of feeding false test data into it to make it look good to your boss for the weekly report

It will drive smaller sites into bankruptcy!!! If they are that close to the wall, then they shouldnt be online in the first place. If an increase in hits to their first page is going to cause problems, they why the hell do they HAVE a page?

All this will mean is that MAYBE coders will actually reduce the shit on entrance pages for thier sites, speeding things up in general for everyone else.

I use AVG8, I have noticed zero performance isssues, but I HAVE seen bad sites shown. (not that that stoped me clicking on them, but thats a different matter)

IT angle? where is it? most people posting here only come into contact with computers in dixons

Im not sure what i'm commenitng on

Becasue the filter in place here has blocked this story for some reason

Considering you would need to be able to count to work out the results

Its not suprising that her results are wrong bieng a women. Women can't count, everyone knows this!

But to be fair, the little darling did give it a good shot!!

Maybe there is an opening somewhere for a PA with a good head for figures?

Mines the coat located very close to the emergency exit

Sod the eggs and flour

I'll be building the scaffold and tying the noose the day before ready for the filthy lawbreaking scum!

Can you hear the sound of helicopters taking the Labour MP's and their friends who benefit financially to their safe house?

Who gives a damm what he says

Right or wrong, stoned or not

Why the hell

1) Do media personalitys think they know what the hell they are talking about

2) Do the same fuckwits then feel the need to tell us?

3) Do the various news agencys then give them credence by reporting on this shit

Its depressing that their views are even given the time of day, since the only people allowed to talk out loud with no knowledge of the subject in question is our corrupt government.

Any "Pop" star who opens his/her mouth to give any political/religious views should be shot, sparing our stupid gullable youth the pain of having to rethink thier world view when the "star" in question gets a new partner/releases a shit song/gets arrested for kiddy worrying

They arrest people for reading the "wrong books" yet allow tossers to lecture us?

We need a civil war asap!!

Mines the coat with the scaffold and noose in the pocket

re: Catherine Tate

I think the vote count was correct.

They deducted 99% of her votes due to her appaling performance in Dr Who

Director of Phorm Design in trouble

I reckon someone is going to go to jail for the Phorm criminal activity.

And guess what

It won’t be any labour Politicians

It will be the poor director of Phorm designs :(

Can I hear the sound of a goat being scraped?

A dirty little thieve being supported by El Reg readers?

Surely a nasty little thieve should not be protected by us.

Freedom of speech does not allow you to write hurtful things about someone else.

You have the freedom to say whatever you want unless its lies or harmful to another person.

Maybe that’s not the law, but its common sense.

To all the idiots above me, spouting about his right to post someone’s name and then insult them.

Grow up and think about what you’re actually saying.

You are taking the side of someone who stole, then got busted. Then personally attacked the policeman who, was indirectly protecting YOU.

I would have handled things differently, If someone had posted that about me and my wife, the little scrote’s teeth would have had a visit from “Mr Lumphammer”

Why is humanity on a race to self destruct ?

Lets tell them EXACTLY where we are then,

On the galatic maps we can replace "Here be dragons" with

"Here be low tech morons ripe for the taking"

Skull and X-Bones cos of space pirates and the fact that Humanity will eventually find a way to wipe ourselves out!!

"Christians accept that every person is amazingly loved and valued by an amazing God"?

Isn't it about time that we took people who still believe in fairy storys out of positions of power?

People slate those involved in Waco as wakos, but still believe in the Pope?

No offense to anyone stupid enough to believe in a God, or even worse, to believe in a God yet NOT believe in other peoples relegions, but how is believing in God any different from belevieng in the Ginger Bread man?

Actually, apart from the Ginger Bread man never having been used as a basis of oppresion of women, power of other men and the cause of untold millions of murders.

Big scam

So much for cutting edge tech.

That photo prooves this is just one more of those "dwarfs in machines" scamms.

Like the magical coca cola vending machines of the 1830's where "A fully automated thinking machine" handed out the beverage of choice.

Looks like someone in the Pentagon is going to loose his job when they realise that, alongside fuel, the thing needs burgers and frys to fly

This changes nothing

There are a number of links to the labour party within BT's Directorship.

So Phorm WILL be profiling you without your permission within months (they may already be doing so) Laws may change retrospectively to make it all nice and legal, but you KNOW that is what will happen

I have absolutely no problem with the Police doing this. But I really think that the scum who run our country have sold every one of us down the river for a handful of small change.

We may as well be a small African Country with the self serving corruption that is going on in this one.

We need President Mugabe to come and bring some credibility to the UK Government

More morals under Maggie?

At least with Maggie Thatcher the UK never looked as corrupt as some of the African states we use as a yard stick for corrupt self serving politicians. (Corruption back then was well hidden I guess)

With the Arms deals to the Arabs

Phorm/BT

Very strange contracts given out by those in charge of Olympic funding

the English/UK look like some tin-pot 3rd world country.

How long can the English people keep their heads in the sand before they are too embarrassed to accept this any longer?

Can they actually do anything even if they wanted to stop this sort of thing?

Is the corrupt nature of our leaders entrenched in ALL parties or built into the basic structure of Government here in such a way as to make changing it a waste of time?

People expect some form of security from BT?

I thought the whole mantra of the company was "zero privacy". Tying in nicely, with their relationship with Phorm.

These aren’t problems with the home hub; they are designed to be totally open
