Cringely On Civil Disobedience

Posted by Hemos on from the fight-the-fight dept.

Sauron23 writes "Robert Cringely over at PBS has his usual weekly Pulpit out. This weeks it's a follow up to last weeks discussion of one of the enforcers of the DMCA, BayTSP. He clarifies some of the issues surrounding a planned bust in October for P2P users sharing movies and makes perhaps an unusual request for civil disobediance from P2P users. I don't know what 10 million pirated copies of "Debbie does Dallas" would be worth either Bob. Probably more than the courts would want to handle. Worth the read." Some of the stronger parts of the column, IMHO, is the commentary on the e-mails people sent in.

    The other night I was watching TV and all of a sudden it occured to me: I really don't like Negroes.

    I don't like their music; I don't like their hair; I don't like the way they talk; I don't like the way they look. I just plain don't like anything about them.

    I'm not a racist. I'm talking about my personal preferences. That's all. I just don't like anything about Negroes.
