It's a slap in the face of those who employ child labor.

That's right. Seize their servers and arrest the board of directors and senior management.

Put up some fancy FBI, DEA and Homeland Security badges on the Bitcoin website and padlock the doors.

That'll teach 'em.

I'm surprised they are devices as archaic as the abacus. Everyone knows they could increase their hashrate 150% if they switched to pocket calculators. This is a clear example of chinese incompetence. Also they should have tried overclocking the children a long time ago.

Kids need cash, just like adults. Should be just give it to them, and teach them nothing, or make them mine bitcoins and teach them about the future of money. I vote the latter!!

I agree. This wasn't abnormal in the older days. Kids used to help their parents with work whenever they had time. Today's kids are busy updating their Facebook status and playing Xbox, that they don't have anytime for other meaningful activities.

“KTVU has just learned the names of the four pilots who were on board the flight,” Ms Campbell said.

“They are Captain Sum Ting Wong, Wi Tu Lo, Ho Lee Fuk and Bang Ding Ow. And the NTSB has confirmed these are the names of the pilots on board flight 214 when it crashed. We are working to determine exactly what roles each of them played during the landing on Saturday.”
