If I remember the rules correctly you are allowed to fly over private property as long as it isn't fenced off. You cannot overfly buildings without permission. You can take pictures of private property without permission as long as they don't contain anything personally identifiable (ie. don't take pictures of people, but no people is fine).

Or, you know, trivially circumvent it? Compress media, break up URLs? I don't understand how this could possibly be effective.

I don't know, I think Maeomo / Meego - Nokia N9 was pretty close to ticking all boxes.

Same, fizzbuzz was one of our tests. Nearly everyone messed it up. The telling part was how. We had a guy with 20 years of experience who demanded ample compensation write code that not only didn't compile, but it made little sense. A lot of people were pretty good bullshitters - then after the test they went "Yeah, well... That went bad huh?". We had a different, more difficult test that people could choose. We had one guy who did somewhat poorly on that... But asked to take the assignment home for his own sake. He was a very god hire. Not because he worked overtime or anything but because he cared.

Chrome - Intentionally introduces privacy leaks. People go "eh" end keep using it.

Gotta protect that memory!
