philba writes to tell us that home theaters may become the new jurisdiction of our MPAA overlords. The MPAA is lobbying to make sure that home users authorize their entertainment systems before any in-home viewings.

The fact that you're being a complete dick makes you look like a complete dick. He/she was JOKING.
