Yeah, how dare they do stuff in their home region?!
I'm from Germany, do you see me saying they should do them in Berlin?

Oh man, it's a good thing I didn't see those pictures before they were taken down. I don't know if there's an emoticon to show how angry I would be.
Over the years I've developed a very good method of squinting when I go to the next page to make it blurry until I'm sure it's safe to look. You can't trust that some jag off isn't going to try to ruin it for us.

Help about what?
I like this stuff in the evening!
Better than in the morning or afternoon IMHO...
Same here, being an Apple fan teaches you squinting pretty well.

It would okay in the evening if they could manage to put it online until 22:00
(That's 10PM )
My routine:
a) set iPhone to Flight Mode (starting with iOS6 this is not necessary anymore
b) Disconnect all messenger programs such as Adium and Skype
c) (in case you get spoilery mails, I don't
d) set Safari homepage to https://www.macrumors.com/2012/09/11/apple-september-12th-media-event-spoiler-free-video-stream/
or http://insightview.com/keynotechecker/
e) "New Tab opens" BLANK WINDOW!
f) Never open "Top Sites"... big banners on websites are often big enough to spoil in Top Sites
g) Check Apple's 1080p Keynotes Podcast all the time for updates (STEER CLEAR OF THE iTUNES STORE PAGE! Subscribe to that podcast beforehand!)
h) Don't use Twitter/Facebook/whatever
i) Steer clear of news sites (general) - Apple news, even during the event are HOT STUFF for them, they'll spill it as soon as they can!
j) Generally, limit your browsing only to the most spoiler-free sites imaginable.
k) Paranoia maybe, but definitely a thought to include: Adblock needs to run!
l) Watch some TV shows in iTunes (not on TV, TV stays off. TV is bad for you, mkay?) TV Shows let you interrupt them to do your checking routines, whilst movies just feel less exciting if you constantly pause them.
That's what I do.
(most of it)
Should keep you pretty spoiler-free.
Damn, I miss those live feeds from Apple.
Bring them back, ffs!

edit: / addition:
Are you crazy? Steer clear of Youtube! :O
Download them beforehand if you wish, but boy, you don't want to touch Youtube with a 5' pole!
Well that's sad.
Yep...

I watched a movie called Mayhem last night. Pretty good. The lead role is played by a lesser known named Gina Carano. She's a champion kick boxer turned actor. Totally hot. Anybody else see this?
