EFF: No Broadcast Flag No Watermarks

Wednesday, July 13
Wow, how prophetic was this!

Back in June 2004, Panorama made a programme which was basically a mock-up of what might happen if terrorists attacked London. Their scenario was... Three tube bombs and a petrol tanker filled with killer contents (e.g. cyanide) exploding. Who could've guessed that they would be so accurate - and to think that at the time the Home Office accused the programme of scaremongering!

My memory of this programme was jolted back by finding this old blog post, Panorama Scaremongering?... Make what you will of that.

Apparently deaths are now above 52 from the bombings, with the police suddenly announcing that the 4 bombers were from Yorkshire, with one only 19 years old and another 22 (but another was 30, so we're talking young men, not 'boy bombers' as the Sun sensationally (as usual) wrote on their full-page headline).
