But this time they didn't do it alone - they had help in this particular foot-shooting escapade.

"From whom?", you may well ask - as well you may.

The answer?

The Department of Homeland Security's Immigrations and Customs Enforcement division.

I. SHIT. YOU. NOT.

Why do I say that ( Read more... )

No, seriously. I shit you not.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think this is fucking stupid?

Remember how the FCC smacked Comcrap around for throttling BitTorrent traffic a year or two back?
