It doesn't make very much sense if you're not a racist, and yet...

Maybe scaretors or fearmongers... oh, I know, horrorists!

I mean, it's possible that the software bug happened organically, but certainly at some point in the last decade management must have heard about it.

Oh, this'll blow your mind. Digital cameras don't capture the entire image all at once. They typically capture one row of pixels at a time, so each row comes from a different moment in time.

So the point I was alluding to is that two adjacent frames in a video carry slightly more timing information than they might appear to based on timestamps.

Specifically, if you have two frames where a dot appears at the bottom and then a second dot appears at the top, you can't be 100% certain that the first dot to appear actually showed up first, or whether it's an artifact of the rolling shutter effect.

Jeez, I wonder if they accounted for the rolling shutter to get higher time resolution

If the video was 30 fps, sounds like two frames

Yikes, I had no idea. Please tell me there's nothing wrong with glass bottles.

And because the eminently recyclable aluminum cans are somehow not good enough.

I think the judge would know it when they see it and laugh them out of the court room.

This is like comparing paintings to the Mona Lisa. Shrek is the crowning achievement of our civilization.

Great question. I don't know.

I think most would agree though, that the absence of a good solution does not justify a poor solution.

I guess that anyone in the country who seeks out and obtains the illegal content is committing a crime, so the government could go after them through traditional means. (Although seriously, are we really going to punish regular people for accessing a social media site?)

Admittedly, banning an entire website at the ISP is far more effective. However, I'd argue it's effective in the same way that a cannonball is an effective flyswatter.
