A Plausible Deniability App for AI and DODgy Vulnerable Systems? Microsoft Systems failing Uncle Sam's Military Command and Control Needs and Feeds and Future Seeds? Or both, with further thoughts on things and something completely different and alien/irregular and unconventional on offer and in the pipeline and already firmly deeply embedded in Universal Para-Military Command and Virtual Power Control Systems?

When it's no longer enough for the parasitic academic publishing industry to leach off the work of researchers, universities, and tax payers, to whit, society at large; when it's not enough that the refereeing, editing, writing are donated, and the same institutions generating the bulk of the content pay to buy their own work back; when it's no longer sufficient that this content that supposedly furthers human knowledge is hidden behind paywalls and made inaccessible to the vast majority of humanity; the final opportunity to piss on society presents itself: beating any individual who dares object with billion dollar lawsuits.

Good job A-holes. Makes me glad I left academia. …. Hungry Sean Posted Tuesday 21st May 2013 04:12 GMT
