Losing Control of Your TV
sp00 writes "The MPAA is now trying to prevent high quality copies made from TV broadcasts. The latest anti-piracy move will prevent you from making high-quality copies of broadcast TV programs. And the new "broadcast flag" technology enables all manner of other restrictions. In the future, the Motion Picture Association of America will control your television set."
You know, anti-Westerners are correct. The Westerner is incorrect to divest the cultural degeneracy of its media from its alienated character as a commodity. Freedom-stealing rights mongering from the MPAA/RIAA go lockstep with the nudity, drugs and violence evident in Western media. You'll notice they don't prosecute the huge amounts of pirates in non-Western countries.
I can't believe I just took a shit in my pants at work. What the fuck? I cant stand up and take it to the restroom, because I am wading in a puddle of feces at this very moment. Any change in my seating position will send my poo spilling down my legs and into my socks and shoes. There is no way I can play this off as a fart. It doesn't help at all that I've been spun out for 3 days. I can hardly see straight! How am I possibly going to explain this to my Supervisor when she comes over here to ask me what the fuck I just did in the presence of my employer? She'll make me drop trau in front of everyone again. There it is. The person in the cubicle to the right of me just asked if I could smell "that". I gotta go.
There's a Mercedes gap too. I want one and can't afford one, but it's not government's job to do anything about it.
In the future, the Motion Picture Association of America will control your television set.
In Soviet Russia, your television set will control the Motion Picture Association of America!
Excuse me while I affix the tin foil antennae to my tv.
MOUNT TAPE U1439 ON B3, NO RING
The TV controls you
Television set controls the MPAA!
Wait, that would be a good thing.
They'll have flying cars. Or something.
