Another Earthquake, another military occupation. But Sunday’s quake in Chile is set to push the American military to its limits.
The quake sent the U.S. military into a preparation frenzy. Tanks and planes are being loaded up with ammunition and soldiers are receiving intensive training on shooting tear gas at children, gaining control of oil [...]
Today a ruling in the high court means that Google will now be responsible for ensuring that no bad things happen on the internet.
