Unfortunately, most major websites end up hosting an endpoint that will redirect users to a separate URL provided as a query parameter. This means that users may easily be misled about where the token is, in fact, being sent.

At least for wealthier companies, the iPhone/BB/Android apps solves that problem.

It's my understanding that wonder wheel is aimed more at advertisers looking for additional search terms on which to place bids.
Re:Guantanamo-like indefinite detention is hardly new on Saturday June 06, 2009 @11:31PM (#645488)
hixn36, I think that's the right way to look at the problem. If people are getting paroled because we just need more information about them, then that seems sensible. If it's just a matter of resource constraints, though, there are probably some sensible reforms.

The trickier problem though is just what do we do with bad people that nobody wants. If we don't want to admit them and no one else will take them, can we then indefinitely detain them or are we obligated by some common sympathy to eventually let them in? I'm not sure but I'm inclined towards the latter.

If that's the case then we lose nothing by granting potential parolees legal alien status.
