What do you think.
But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

Isn't that the one that NPR gives you on your butt when you send away for one of their $150 video-shot Shostakovitch biopics?

It's more likely for your body to get torn to pieces than your ID to be destroyed.

Serious question?
If an immigrant tattoos "I'm an American" on him, does it make him one? They cannot legally do anything without the proper paperwork.

Yes, you need proper paperwork. A Tattoo is not proper paperwork.

I can see it already:
"Hey Bob, this guy has I'm a donor tatooed on his chest?!?"
"Must've been really proud of his sperm."

Don't they turn away people with Tatoos for blood donation? So wouldnt organ donation be even more picky.
When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them."Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams

I heard that the Police can arrest you if you write "lol iam a criminal" on your Forhead but it counts only if you do it with a waterproof pen.

I'll answer the question with another question. If I tattoo "I am Batman" on my chest does that make me Batman?

Aren't people with tattoos not allowed to donate?
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.

As long as you don't get in a car accident within twelve months after your tattooing, then hey, you're golden. It'll speed up the process! Otherwise, it'd just be an ironic waste of your organs.

I am pretty sure when they identify the body they would check the organ donors database and see if that person was one or not anyway.

let me actually give you a serious response:
it depends and is a matter of law. In Germany, becoming a donor is fairly easy. All you need is to express your opinion about it and write it on a sheet of paper. If this doesn't exist, an oral Expression to a relative is also enough. If neither exists, your relatives will be asked what's going to happen with you.
So a Tattoo does actually make you a donor, even better if you put your signature under it.
However, you totally don't need to. Just make sure that you tell enough People to become one, make a second donor card and put it in a place people know where it is.
With these steps you will almost surely become a donor after your death.
It also doesn't speed things up, because in order to become a donor you have to be identified and your organs have to be tested for various diseases, and in almost all cases the last step is the far more time consuming.
An organ donor databse doesn't exist in many countries (like Germany)I am pretty sure when they identify the body they would check the organ donors database and see if that person was one or not anyway.Last edited by mmoc560683934b; 2013-08-03 at 08:24 PM.

The only good it might do is supporting or refuting your family's "would have been a donor" argument, although even there, many hospitals won't touch it for fear of being sued.
Thought experiment aside, if it is something a person cared enough about to permanently mark their body, they should just spend the nanosecond to check the box and get an updated DL.

Just say yes to being a donor when you get your license?
