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, the RIAA is a classic case of where government SHOULD have stepped in and squished and illegal Mafia cartel long ago.

The government is a babbling retard playing with its own feces. Instead, the unwashed masses are (shock and horror) voting with their wallets, taking matters securely in-hand..

Dear Troll,

Re-read my post minus the stick up your ass, if at all possible.

Guess I have to spell it out: "Shock and horror" was located within parentheses to convey the comically effeminate "well I never!" attitude of both the RIAA and government toward the fact that people would decide against being pushed around.

Why would you assume I'm _not_ on your side? You just got gored by Occam's Razor.

Fond of kicking goals for the other team, are you?

I can see how you might mod this troll if you hate hippies, but really, you're not supposed to mod down just because you like Glenn Beck. In all fairness, it's a pretty accurate description of most of Beck's logical fallacies.
