.. and others who see it as the 5th day of Autumn
It's well known that if all the cat videos and porn disappeared from the internet there would be only one site left and it would be called whereareallthecatvideosandporn.com

Since 'Autumn' doesn't start until 22nd of September most of us are enjoying the late Summer.
NOTE: The Americans call it Fall unlike the rest of the world who call it Autumn.
Presumably this is because the leaves Fall from the trees.
Is it followed by 'Slip', 'Thaw' and 'Phew, what a scorcher'?

Well, that's the meteorological view. I define the whole summer/fall/winter/spring stuff by the temparatures and the weather.
Everything above 23C after spring is summer. Everything below is fall.
Winter is if there is snow outside. Spring starts as soon as the temparature rises above 15C after new year.
So yes, I define the current season day-by-day.

Long story about me not telling Mrs AndyLJ that my mate and his two kids and two Bull Terriers were coming to live with us while he sold his property in Queensland.
Seven months later I am still married. What a woman!.

Oh we were known as the squatters when we arrived back from London, lived with a mate for 18 months while we bought our place and did the renos, no dogs, no kids, a couple of nice quiet folks.

Now MS and Google will surveillance us, so be careful 
Quote: Microsoft on Friday said that a battle to shed light on secret US government requests for Internet user data would play out in court after failed peace talks.
Microsoft and Google filed suits in federal court in June, arguing a right to make public more information about user data requests made under the auspices of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

"Now"?
They have already been responding the legally mandated requests for years. However they are now asking for at least a minimal right to tell people in general how often it actually occurs. Presumably because it does in fact occur very seldom.
And of course that it just in terms of government snooping.
Google has of course been snooping for its own purposes for years. Presumably Microsoft does too.

Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Not really.
Apple doesn't provide email nor phone service. One might subpoena music, book and apps sales but that is probably happens very seldom.

Did a quick search and it appears the icloud service does both email and online storage.

The market usually take a nose dive every 5-7 years or so. 2008+5=2013, so yes, we're most likely heading for another one.

Looking at other postings by that author they seem to be relegated solely to alarmist and some rather reaching predictions. Which doesn't bode well for this specific one.

"Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is International Business Editor of The Daily Telegraph. He has covered world politics and economics for 30 years, based in Europe, the US, and Latin America. He joined the Telegraph in 1991, serving as Washington correspondent and later Europe correspondent in Brussels."
I would disagree: the Telegraph isn't the sort of paper that publishes that kind of story and his other articles all appear reasonably well balanced and fair. On another note, even if you really thought his article alarmist, doesn't make it wrong.
