Industry Divided Over SSSCA
CBravo writes: "The EE Times has a story that talks about the SSSCA and how it divides the industry. Short part:'If approved, the law would be enforceable under federal regulations and could dramatically alter the way system OEMs design and develop PCs, TVs, set-tops or other digital appliances with embedded microprocessors, according to industry sources familiar with the Hollings proposal. The motion-picture industry, with the Disney and Fox studios in the lead, backs the legislation.'" If you thought the DMCA was bad, look out -- the SSSCA would inject far more control into a wide range of electronic devices.
His squealing is probably more like a piglet getting anally sodomized.
Propz to all dead penis birds.
If I weren't nailed to the penis, I'd be pushing up the daisies!
Squealing while the "special" US faggot forces are giving him a rim-job?
...would make a nifty landing spot for Bin Laden's pilot buddies. And it would have people dancing all over the US and Europe, rather than just some Palestinians.
"All right, Marge. File this one under the constitutional nuts category"
(I don't feel that way but the constant constitutional argumentation sure makes you look like that way).
Heaven forbid anyone modifies the internal design of my television! You YRO hippies make it sound like I wont be able to watch "all my favorite shows on the WB" without a masters degree in industrial-strength crypto. Give it a rest, and come back to the real world where no ones out to get you.

For years, non-americans has seen the USA as a big movie itself, and relinquishing the control of all data-processing devices to Hollywood merely confirms this fact.
This ultimately proves that the United States of America is nothing but a bullshit country.
That's fine, then, the rest of the world will happily ignore the US.
We used to beat the shit out of kids at school who were nerdy and read books. This one particular dork we beat the hell out of on several occassions, broke his glasses (not as a consequence of getting hit either. we made him give us his glasses and my friend broke them and then rubbed them on the pavement to completely ruin them), threw is books at his head, and we stuffed clumps of dirt and grass in his mouth and then held it shut.
Heh, he committed suicide a little less than a year after graduation. We never got in trouble for this. Once we were called to the office the first time we beat his ass and nothing really happened. That fucking nerd never had the balls to rat us out again.
