  3. Re:Hard to say... on RIAA Sues Backbone ISPs to Censor Website · · Score: 1

    hmm... and what happens to "innocent till proven guilty" in the first place? This way they can say "you sucks", sue your ISP and then you should fight to prove yourself innocent.

    Dear Big ISPs,

    Why don't you block this offending, and now suing your using inapropriate language site, www.riaa.org ?

    Thanks,
    Customer.

    PS. 2 edged sword -- if RIAA wins, these guys could block them just because of the case, if RIAA losts, they still can do this because they lost and spread information that it is not correct (proved in the court).

  13. Re:Commentary is completely off. on RIAA to Sue You Now · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I wish I have your assurance on this one. Remember not long time ago a article (news.com methinks) about woman fired over having some mp3 on her comp at work? This is where they gonna start, effectively forcing companies to ban fileswappin and mp3-listening @ work (lets not talk about company resources, working comp for work and all other related issues)

    This (I expect) will kill effectevely about 30 to 50% of possible users. Then, on much clean ground, they will sue couple ISPs and get them involved somehow. AND THIS IS IT. ISPs will fight rest of swappers to the end of contract. If file swapping will be reduced to 5-10% of current, It would be effectively "RIP Swapping -- 2006". And then, as you can imagine, they will come with "new, cost effective, legal" way to sell music over internet.

    Screw us ?

    from my expirience

    a. Management heard that it is bloated, not readable etc -- you will have HARD TIME to get permission to use it.

    b. Not all programmers are equal - if somebody does not understand your code, they will try to make look like all the bugs are came from this particular code. See a. as well.

    c. If there is even a slight possibility that this platform is not support some standart feature (old compiler, etc) you better know it in first place so b. will not led to a.

    All other things like code bloatness etc -- well, if you write embedded app, you better be carefull. YMMV, you know...
