I enjoyed it, good refresher on CSS grids, thanks for sharing

There is a link on this page to http://www.googledemolition.com/ also, which looks like another project waiting for a takedown notice..

Your relaxed attitude to privacy is enough to make me never use that site, sorry.
The fact that it is a 'pain' to make the effort to protect someones identity means you're probably in the wrong business.

Just testing it out on Android, everything I tried seemed to work perfectly. Great design and CSS work :)
Perhaps some sorting & filtering options on the dashboard? An 'overdue, current and complete tabs?

The content was interesting, if you can look past the repetive "you are pushed to burnout" comments. It really detracts from the message and feels a lot like a powerpoint presentation

Interesting idea, I did consider "Your Web Guy"

I feel it would. Imagine a script kiddie in Australia decides to join the DDOS attack on the government site.
He is easily traced by IP, and the Australian Federal Police come to visit.
His new 'rights', now that he is part of a terror group include:
Being held for up to nine days in detention without being formally charged.
Warrantless searches
The seizure of any objects associated with the terrorist act (this is quite a wide open definition, basically anything you own is up for grabs)
Also the AFP have some quite invasive computer techniques that are used to go wandering through your system before they knock on the door.

I thinks its only a matter of time before Anonymous gets labelled a terrorist organisation to increase the counter measures / invasive laws that can be used against them.
Disrupting Goverment sites and services would be considered as an attack as per the Australian Terrorism definition:
(e) seriously interferes with, seriously disrupts, or destroys, an electronic system including, but not limited to
(i) an information system; or
(ii) a telecommunications system; or
(iii) a financial system; or
(iv) a system used for the delivery of essential government services; or
(v) a system used for, or by, an essential public utility; or
(vi) a system used for, or by, a transport system.

I do like the variety of AMA posts on reddit, but the amount of crap to wade through in the comments is getting quite tiresome. They seem to be posted to HN a lot more lately also?
You can get an RSS feed of the subreddit here: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/.rss

I have been searching and can't find any info about this? Got any more details/link?

I would be wary about broadcasting the IP address, username and a filmed typing of the password to a tech community.
It would take very little work to determine the password from watching that video a few times.

That was hard to watch, the graphic below the video explained it all, minus his awkward stage performance.

The problem lies in a small number of politicians holding the swing vote in our policy making. Unfortunately one of the main players is "Family First", a conservative Christian political group who are basically trying to impose 'good christian values' on all Australians. So to get a major parties policies through, they do 'deals' with these minor groups, like supporting extreme censorship.
You can read more about this wonderful group here http://www.familyfirst.org.au/Policies.htm
Some things they oppose include abortion, euthenasia, cloning, needle exchange programs for drug users, unfiltered internet pornography...
It saddens me that our current politicians do not see the damage such policies will have in the future. They are trading our future freedom to ensure their current political aspirations are met.
