Iran blocks Facebook over presidential hopeful

Comment in News (-2 diggs, 1 reply) - on 05/24/2009
Facebook was going to do the same anyways thanks to the new ToS that bans access to embargoed nations (including Iran, Cuba, and North Korea). You probably think it's all a matter of who you want to do the blocking. Personally, I don't care; it's censors … (see comment)

Default WEP is bad enough, but what I really find absurd is the link between the ESSID and the WEP key. That's not ignorance, it's plain stupidity. (see comment)

One example: the 1953 Iranian Coup d’état, facilitated by the CIA and MI6, deposed the democratically-elected government of Prime Minister Mohammed Mosaddeq. Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%2 ... An American Coup and t … (see comment)

Generally speaking DRM-laden music files are encoded in lossy formats anyways. FLAC doesn't support DRM, though ALAC and WMA Lossless probably do (but I don't know of many places where I can purchase music in ALAC or WMA Lossless format). Unless you want … (see comment)

“In a world without walls and fences who needs Windows and Gates” is the first thing I though of when I saw the article mention a "Life Without Walls" campaign; that's probably what tacojohn48 was referring to. (see comment)

Joe Biden's pro-RIAA, pro-FBI tech voting record

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 09/04/2008
I'm not a big fan of Obama, but you should vote, even if it is a matter of voting against a candidate rather than for. Remember, Al Gore lost the election in Florida because of about 500 votes. If only a small percentage of people voting for Nader voted f … (see comment)

You are correct. BinaryFreedom Announcement: "We had to remove the story initially because we were a little confused about some of the facts. Now that we have things cleared up, the story is open again." (see comment)
