    There, you expose your idiocy. All ideas are found, nobody can ever create ideas. Since two ideas can be found independently, how can they be created? Moron.

    (Please Note: Not flamebait ... just my 2 cents :)

    Does anyone else find it strange that /. always seems so surprised/outraged/disenfranchised when the MPAA/RIAA etc. do something like this. Sure they might be the "big bad corporation of America Inc. who don't run Linux" but the truth is that they're losing money because a select number of individuals are stealing *their* intellectual property. Do you really expect them to sit there and do nothing? Welcome to the REAL world of business.

    Insightful, my ass. The two are not equal, nor mutually inclusive. Occupation can be liberation or conquering, you're just a troll.
