What on Earth is going to power both the transmitter and computer on these devices, not to mention what will keep is flying? Solar power and inverters can only offer so much. I am really curious what their plans are to launch such a device and keep it powered. Weight is also a factor in terms of how much "fuel" or in this case power is needed to lift and object off of the ground.
Something tells me that isn't anything more than an ambitious idea. It's possible, but one server would be expensive to keep in the air and then factors like weather (lightning, cyclones, tidal waves) and other things are to be considered.
Speaking of big newspapers, have you heard of this Australian run and philanthropist funded news website called The Global Mail? http://www.theglobalmail.org/ - it's non-ad supported, has an independent editorial commity and has some big name journalists. It's not a conventional news site that has breaking news, it's more a back to roots type operation that actually does research.
TGM are proof that there is room for some new players to do well online.
SOPA will break the internet. Australia has a free-trade agreement with the US which will essentially mean SOPA will be applied to Australian's in more ways than one. So I think a global wide Wikipedia blackout is a good idea.
You know what a more effective blackout option would be? Google. If Google did a blackout to raise SOPA awareness, could you imagine or Facebook? Imagine all 3 blacking out at the same time.
So what you're saying is music stores in the US don't pay licencing fees to play music in the store? LOCK THEM UP, THAT IS THEFT REGARDLESS OF WHATEVER LICENCE OR AGREEMENT THESE STORES HAVE WITH THE LABELS! AHHHHH!
I don't think you realise everyone is writing about this. Not just BestNetTech, but mostly any other site that understands what the bill really contains.
You're a joke, and a liar. LMFAO @ you, Anonymous Misinformed Coward.
My home WIFI is called "Police Surveillance Van" and I noticed the other day a police car sat outside my house for about 30 minutes, just sitting in their car. I think my crazy neighbour called them, haha.
Wait... what? I thought only business men used Blackberries. Does that mean the people rioting the streets are in-fact business men in common clothing? The revolution has begun.
Obviously selling counterfeit Sons of Anarchy t-shirts is a security risk to the United States. If we don't lock these animals away pronto, their copyright infringing message might start to spread and then the US will be in a state of anarchy.
All of AC/DC's tracks sound the same. How many people except for die hard AC/DC fans could tell you which songs belong to which album even if you told them once, then blindfolded them.
It's the same stuff over and over again; EM / AM / C / G chords alternating with the occasional power chord thrown over the top and then a nice tapped solo with a few bends thrown in.
They're just a band of old men trying to hold onto their fame, they'll all be dead soon, then the new owner of their music will digitally release it and profit. That's sorta what happened with The Beatles.
The glasses are merely an excuse to treat everyone as a criminal. The reasoning behind all arrests in Brazil will now be, "He's a criminal because the glasses recognised him as one"
Why don't they just learn from the United States and treat everyone as criminals without the use of expensive glasses?

Re:
It will break the internet. Many experts have stated it would. Not literally, but in many ways it will. Do your research first, kiddo.

Didn't you hear Mike? It's okay to steal ideas if your name is Steve Jobs or you're employed by Apple.

In Brazil laws are bought, not made.

Stop pointing it out
To serve and protect. More like to abuse and fear monger.

Great Scott Google! you've disrupted the space time continuum.
Re: Publicity is always a good thing.
The saying, "Any publicity is good publicity" only applies if you're paying the company a fee to give them publicity or expect a lawsuit.
