Well, if it is really secure, then there is no problem. If it was just security by (another) obscurity, then it was inevitable. > His other clanger is publically commenting on iiNet's copyright case. > He'll become a major liability to Labor when iiNet sues him. Naah, both parties are now conservative and intrusive control of you to maximise your economic production. Labor stopped representing the working man in the 70's when their local branches were manipulated to select professionals; people who had never worked at a real job in their life. Even Graham West, who resigned on principle(wow), had never worked at a real job. haven't you noticed that Labor under Rudd is more divisive then Little Johhny. irt is always we are going to take money off these cheats and bludgers(miners, single mums, disabled, pensions, etc) and you will get more.

No, there is a definite way you can be sure the google van will turn up; your lawn hasn't been mowed for months, the full rubbish bin has been knocked and rubbish everywhere, your car looks like it just surfaced from a mud lake, the kids have toys every where, the garden pruning are piled on the footpath along with your old mattress, lounge and TV awaiting council pick up. Then you should go inside and start your banking as the google car will almost certain turn up to photograph your house and suck down your banking details. {:-).

Conclusion: Conroy is a complete technoidiot. I thought it couldn't get worse than Alston. It did |
