Head of HOMELAND SECURITY stays safe by…not using email. There is always that.
Here’s a brilliant way to keep your email secure. Don’t fucking use any! Goddamn. Why didn’t I think of that? I imagine it’d be harder to pull off if I was the head of something, though.

I mean, I couldn’t possibly stay in contact with people without it. It’d be impossible. Right?

Japanese Copyright Law Makes ILLEGAL DOWNLOADS A Criminal Offense
Glad I don’t live in Japan. Not that I pirate shit, or have any sorts of illegal music on my computer, but if I did I would be in trouble. Illegal downloads are now going to carry a heavy fucking penalty in Godzilla’s stomping grounds.
ACTA Getting Slapped Down In The EU, Sanity Prevailing?
You all know ACTA. Or if you don’t, you now do. There is a batch of good news regarding the fate of this secretive machination writing in treaty form. Three European Parliament committees have given the son of a bitch a slap down. Sanity, get!
PIRATE BAY Announces New IP Address, Effort Designed For Proxy Friendliness.
You can’t keep a good torrent site down. Unless you’re the slew of porn torrent sites that I used to frequent. In that case you can stake them through the heart and leave me devastated. Not Pirate Bay though, nope. No way.
