Christian Science Monitor has a great article on how current attacks on Iran (viruses, killing of scientists) are terrorist actions. They indeed are state-sponsored terrorism, a phrased used by the USA and attached to countries like Iran. Hypocritically, the US and Israel have been participating in their fair share of state-sponsored terrorism in other countries, while insisting that no one else can.
Like to truecrypt your hard drive? Microsoft is forcing manufacturers that make Windows 8 computers running ARM processors to lock down the devices so nothing other than Windows 8 can be installed on them.
On non-ARM systems, it is required to implement the ability to disable Secure Boot via firmware setup. A physically present user must be allowed to disable Secure Boot via firmware setup without possession of PKpriv. Programmatic disabling of Secure Boot either during Boot Services or after exiting EFI Boot Services MUST NOT be possible. Disabling Secure MUST NOT be possible on ARM systems.

Forbes has an article about how NYC is what can be considered “lawful stupid.” Even trying to follow the letter of the law, you can get 15 years in prison for not noticing a more recent law regarding guns: you have one? 15 years in prison. The end.

Homeland Security is keeping tabs on reporters. Oh, what a surprise!

Vermin Supreme harasses Ron Paul and makes a mockery of the state and the election. People like Vermin are needed to mock this system, because, in the end, it is just a violent gang. Ironically, this almost makes him the most honest candidate in the 2012 election.
More victims of the drug war. Two police died during a drug raid, and now an innocent man faces the death penalty.
Should we be so entirely self-centered in matters concerning our safety that we break into the homes of innocent men, drag them from their wife and children, and keep them in a cage for almost a decade, after destroying their lives?
This is written by an innocent man who was held at Guantanamo for over seven years. He was held without charge. He was not a terrorist (in any sense of the word).

A Texas teenager who was deported to Colombia after claiming to be an illegal immigrant was back in the United States on Friday and at the center of an international mystery over how a minor could be sent to a country where she is not a citizen.

Your precious immigration laws hurt real people. Second story about someone deported because they did not have proper documentation. Should we all carry Birth Certificates, or our set of “papers” now? For one year, this teenagers life was drastically changed due to overzealous Americans wanting to keep their homeland American-only. Instead, of achieving the peace they want, they use violence to aggravate problems that were caused by restricting immigration to begin with.
Corporations are created by the state. This means they are based on violence and not private entities, because of this the people have the duty to take them over and move them into the private sector.
At the same time we can build alternative economics by selling illegal goods at the occupy protests, they will shield our activities from the cops. At the same time we can educate the protesters on liberty, and have them take steps to challenge the states authority slowly but surely. -Anonymous
SOPA and NDAA are gonna pass, no matter how many times you call congress and the senate.
Does everyone have short memories? Do you not remember the first bail-out that got shoved down our throats? Remember how those tyrants in DC even publicly stated that no one wanted it but they would do it anyway?
They do not care what you want. They have all the protection from you, they have all the guns, and they have all your money. And they can continue abusing you because you still trust them.
