Yet, another Privacy violation.
UK Mobile Operator O2 allows its customers to send Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) photos to email recipients by way of a web interface. The URLs published by the MMS-to-email application are not authenticated, so a simple Google search reveals hundreds, if not thousands of private photos
If you are in the UK and with O2 I suggest finding a provider who actually respects your privacy.
It’s an ongoing battle between p2pers and content producers.
Just recently the Motion Picture Association of America has argued that it should not need to prove infringement in order to win a judgement against somebody they suspect is violating their copyright. If these people get their way the “Innocent until proven guilty” concept will no longer exist and anyone they accuse is automatically guilty.
Things are going to far…
It’s bad enough that piracy is treated a a serious crime, as I mentioned In an earlier article but it is getting to the point where we are losing even our most basic rights. Such as the ability to use the Internet for free and open communication with the likes of Virgin Media and Comcast seeking to cut off and regulate what users can and can’t do with the connections they (the customer) paid for and it’s all in the name of “Copyright”.
The Internet and consumer’s are under attack because of Copyright laws. The MPAA also want the ability for content producers to take control of YOUR equipment to stop you from using it to record programs never mind the fact that you brought it and own it, they want to control it
BitTorrent, the protocol that has revolutionised content distribution by making it possible for even the little guys to distribute content to a vast audience is also under attack by the big media providers who wish to outlaw the protocol and stampout fair competition.
Then theres the Organised Crime connection with copyright enforcement.
But what if these copyright laws never existed? Would our internet still be under threat if it wasn’t in corporate intrest to Monitor, Censor or otherwise disrupt the distribution of information?
I feel that we would all benefit without copyright laws in our society, why should I pay a blank media tax to a corporation who gives me nothing in return?

Is it any surprise that primitive people are more likely to believe in primitive delusions?
Professor Lynn said religious belief had declined in the 20th century
Professor Richard Lynn, emeritus professor of psychology at Ulster University, said many more members of the “intellectual elite” considered themselves atheists than the national average.
A decline in religious observance over the last century was directly linked to a rise in average intelligence, he claimed.
People with higher IQs are less likely to believe in God, according to a new study.

I just received a call from 0282050499 by a company called Wiz Quiz,
it was an automated voice message asking me to partake in a quiz.
THIS IS A SCAM….
I have seen several of these over the years and they will add charges onto you phone bill if you follow their instructions just hang up if you receive a call from them on 0282050499.
If your wondering how they got your number, they didn’t they are auto dialling people which is Illegal in Australia but unfortunately it’s very hard to prove these autodial practices.
This scam company appears to be operated by a person named.

I don’t have anything else at the moment because this scam has only just been brought to my attention but if anyone has additional information I would appreciate it.

Police last night raided the Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery in Sydney’s east prior to the exhibition’s opening.
The exhibition is understood to show a number of teenagers as young as 12 posing in various positions

Just when I thought I had seen it all this appears.
A group in Santa Fe says the city is discriminating against them because they say that they’re allergic to the wireless Internet signal. And now they want Wi-Fi banned from public buildings.
At first I thought no-one could be that stupid but I was wrong, this Isn’t a joke these people really are claiming to be allergic to radio signals.
I suggest they add another layer of tin-foil to that hat.

I got tired of having to code every page by hand so I have now intalled Wordpress as the Content Management System for this blog.
Comments/Abuse can now be submitted from the article pages instead of being emailed in. We do still accept email feedback but unlike the public comments we are the only one’s who read it.

There are Aboriginals, Torres Strait Islanders, Kiwi Australians, Lebanese Australians, Asian Australians, Arab Australians and boat People from all over the place.
And then there are just Australians. White Australians, ordinary Australians, who love their country. Australians who don’t really care about the skin colour of others - until they find themselves on the Wrong end of abuse because they happen to be white Australians.
You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me ‘Australian Dog’, ‘White boy’, ‘Cracker’, ‘Honky’, ‘Whitey’, ‘Caveman’.
And that’s OK. But when I call you, Blackfella, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-Nigger, Sheep Shagger, Camel Jockey, Gook, we are Racists.
You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the Aboriginal suburbs such as Redfern and Muslim and Asian suburbs such as Lakemba, Bankstown and Cabramatta the most dangerous places to live?
You have Invasion Day. You Have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma’uled Al-Nabi.
But if we had a ‘White Pride’ Day, you would call us racists.
You want us to study Aboriginal history and indoctrinate us to believe That we are ruthless invaders. You want us to say sorry for something we did not do. But, because we want to teach history as it happened, we are Racists.
If we had an organisation for only whites to ‘advance’ OUR lives. We’d be racists.
If we had a university fund that only gave white students scholarships, We’d be racists.
There are many indigenous organisations that are only open to Aboriginals. Are there any organisations that are ‘Only open to whites’? Of course not, because if there were, we would be called racists.
Australia has a flag that represents everybody. Aboriginals have a flag that represents only them, but they don’t think that’s racist. However If white Australians dared to have a flag that only represented white Australians and white athletes who won an Olympic event ran around Draped in such a flag, they would be condemned as racists.
If you are not white, you can march for your race and rights. If we Marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you’re not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us Racists.
You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police Officer shoots a Muslim gang member or beats up a Lebanese drug dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a Racist.
I am proud. But you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites can be Racists?

Geert Wilders’ film about the Quran
(Update: 29 March 2008) Free speech has been dealt another blow this video was being hosted by Live Leak but due to terrorists making death threats Live Leak has pulled the video off-line so I am now hosting it myself.
Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill informed from certain corners of the British media that could directly affect the safety of some staff members, Liveleak has been left with no other choice but to remove Fitna from our servers.
This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people, from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised LiveLeak.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just for the support of one.
Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one anothers culture.
We stood for what we belive in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high. - LiveLeak.com
