Needed a 2nd attempt for it to accept mine. Regardless, it's disappointing they're only offering paypal.

It is perhaps not surprising that the government wants to scrap it -- http://www.theguardian.com/law/2013/sep/30/conservitives-scr...

If UKIP had their way, we wouldn't be in the European Union or Council of Europe and would be withdrawn from the Human Rights Convention.

#17Rant on: Why is it that people use "Prism" as synonym for the whole state of government surveillance? PRISM is one specific program of the NSA, there is much more and there is much worse (eg TEMPORA).
Because people, including Brits, are more familiar with PRISM than TEMPORA. It has become synonymous with this scandal.

#19comic sans ms, really?
ahh, it looks like that's because I have remote fonts disabled (security) and it picked comic sans ms as the closest.. for some reason.
CSS font family defaults should be sensible. I thought the Comic Sans looked unprofessional until you pointed out that NoScript was blocking a dynamic font.

#20This is very dangerous initiative. Because if you loose such a case in the UK, British users will be doomed like forever.
