RIAA Wants 'Net Neutrality' To Include Filtering
I Don't Believe in Imaginary Property writes "The RIAA is now worried about the FCC's rulemaking concerning Net Neutrality. Specifically, they're worried that the rules might make it difficult for ISPs to filter out copyright infringement and child pornography, so they want to make sure that spying on and filtering internet traffic is okay, so long as it's being done for a good reason, even if it doesn't work correctly and blocks non-infringing content. Incidentally, the RIAA has some justification to lump child pornography and copyright infringement: after all, people might infringe upon the original cover art for the album 'Virgin Killer,' which featured a naked under-aged girl in a way that some consider pornographic. The copyright on it belongs to RCA Records."
No - this is perfectly in line with the logic behind dehydrated water.

The RIAA wants to protect their copyrighted child porn?
People might share videos explaining how to build bombs with an RIAA copyrighted music in the backgroup :O
Wouldn't those that oppose their position like children?
Think of the children! Isn't that the root cause of child pornography?
If this keeps going I'll end up firmly believing that educating the population is the solution to all of humanity matters.
Not quite. There is always the nuclear option- you know just nuke the planet until cockroaches are the highest form of life. Then it because the cockroaches' problems on what to do with the RIAA.

i have tried in my life to be lucid, coherent, and persuasive in what i say
little did i know all you have to do is say "kiddie porn", and whatever you are trying to argue for, people instantly flock to you sympathetically
so, in that spirit, instead of making a rational argument here, i will simply say
there!
now i may rest assured that whatever your opinion before reading my comment, i have now inexorably swayed you to believe as i do, simply by reciting the magic words that trumps all debate, argument and rhetoric
intellectual property law is philosophically incoherent. it is your moral duty to ignore it or sabotage it
RIAA does not care about child pornography. They're hiding behind the issue. They want to be able to claim that those who oppose their position hate children.
considering the RIAA acts like a bunch of spoiled children, this is starting to make a lot of sense!

In a world of the blind, the one-eyed man is king--and the two-eyed man is a heretic.
Hitler was against child pornography.
Come on, RIAA - try to take me down. I can't lose.
Too bad that's only true from a certain point of view. It only works like that because if they strike you down, you will become more powerful than they can possibly imagine.
Let q be a radix > 1. I am in ur base-q, killing 10 d00ds.
No children, no child pornography.
It's clear that we need to ban children.

You probably meant "Force majeure". Sure, it's French for "force major", but if it's written in French, it has that certain Je ne sais quoi...
