French Assembly Rejects Three Strikes Bill
An anonymous reader writes "The French Assembly has rejected the Three Strikes bill (in French!) which would allow ISPs to cut off users found to have been downloading protected content after two warnings.
Summary: the Sarkozy administration can go back with a new draft for approval by both chambers or try to get upper house approval of a softer version without the cutoff passed by the lower house."
Thats strike 1
I would give everything i own for a little bit more.
I hate being rejected in French. The woman is always trying to say something like "get away you impudent fool", but it always sounds like they are saying they are dying to make love to me, and cannot wait to get to a hotel room.

So you're perfectly ok with being kicked off the Internet for being accused of theft, regardless of whether or not you actually committed the act? I'm perfectly ok with you being kicked off the Internet for supporting that idea.

Well, I guess we must be thankful they rejected it in French. Just think how awkward it would have been if they had rejected it in English, say, or Russian, or God forbid, Chinese.

Rejecting it in French is like wiping your ass with silk.
