Now they tell you that it will only be one minute of commercials for every 30 minutes of music...
But we all know that this will be followed by the usual anal probing, once they dominate this market.
When the dumbass hippies who voted for them have to go get a job, their popularity will crash to zero.

In my country, brutal people who attack others simply because they enjoy it, are usually convicted harsher than people who help publish other peoples links. Thanks to recent pressure from U.S. industry, this has changed.

You may not see it from within the US media blanket, but to the outside world the US has really changed.Once the U.S. was respected around the world for defending freedom of ideas and ideals. Now people just don't want to be sat on by fat uncle Sam. (I all fairness, Obama is working hard to reestablish respect, but there are many areas where your country ignores the rights of others, just because you can)
When I was a kid, the U.S. stood up against the agressive communist block which we had just across the baltic sea. The russians often accidentally happened to cross into swedish airspace and they suddenly decided that the border between our two countries was not where international agreements would put it. We had subs in our waters and a great deal of "eastern traveling salesmen" working near military installations and visiting the homes of our pilots.
Back then, me and my family loved the U.S. All of us knew that the U.S. was a good force and supported our countrys independence from the eastern block. The best thing: we where free to love or to hate you, and free as a nation to forcefully speak out against the U.S. without having this support suddenly disappear. That earned you much respect. You could have easily backed us into a corner forcing us to push the U.S. agenda instead of our own, but instead we got freedom and justice.
Because of this, a part of me still loves red, white and blue, but you have seriously got to find your way back.
You guys had a better result in Germany than the swedish P.P. had in our first elections (in the 2006 national elections, we got 0.63% of the votes). Keep up the good work and we are sure to be joined by both German and Finish pirates in the european parliament.

I'd rather not have corporations able to track every individuals geo-location and listening patterns.
How about a streaming service to try new songs and then you can store the music locally that you actually do listen to. That way you have more freedom and no one can track your usage patterns or geo-location.
Not to worry, the Swedish government parties simply do not want to lose more votes in the EU-parliament elections that take place on the 7:th of june.
For this reason there is no 99-page government proposal for the implementation of the Data Retention Directive, but for some reason you can already download the proposal through the highly dependable Wikileaks network:
Both the directive and the government proposal states that the reasons for the comming law are terrorists and organized crime (human trafficing and narcotics). Although the law is intended to fight serious crime, the government states that it does not see any reason to limit what organizations can request information from the required logs.
... and invited to share their views on this law proposal are (naturally)... IFPI
Yes, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry has been invited to share their views on a law against terrorists and drug smugglers. Their opinion? Well, a 6 month retention plan might be too short, but generally they appreciate the proposal.
Does anyone wonder why the Pirate Party are winning more and more votes?
It isn't a search engine; it doesn't search. I'm going to rip my face off if I hear another person refer to it as a search engine.
The Golgafrincham arrival spurs the extinction of the native "cavemen", although as Ford Prefect pointed out, they did not live in caves, to which a witty repartee was that they "might have been getting their caves redecorated".
you have complete control over their reward system (doing research could give them a heroin-like reward), and you're going to have super brains.
Keep the slaves druged up and they will work much harder for you?
What makes you think they would like to keep you as their master? Any resonable human being treated that way would eventually try to escape or even kill you.
* Why is it that an engineer or scientist will only be granted a 20 year protection of his or her idea after spending piles of money and maybe 5 to 10 years working on an idea, while a guy with a guitar gets a monopoly for life?
* If I buy an original potatoe at a store and I reproduce it and share copies with my friends, why isn't that called theft? Making that initial potatoe available can potentially cost the store thousands in lost potatoe sales.
Rumour has it in Sweden that the german Pirate Party is also growing in numbers.
As a member of the swedish Pirate Party I would like to ask any german/.:ers to at least visit their site and just read.
Changing things is not as difficult as the other parties would have you believe. People just have to realize that they can really win. Your opponents would love to win on walk-over, so don't let them.
The swedish Pirate Party has moved up from 7th place in membership numbers to 4th place. After slowly moving into the media spotlight for a few years, this latest shift took 3 days. We will most likely be taking over 3:rd spot in a few weeks time. People are finally starting to understand that things can change.
Think about that if you live in Germany or the rest of Europe:
* Things can change
* It is up to you to switch to the Pirate Party
* Don't give up at the first setback.
So the time has come to Rick Roll the entire population of Germany, but with links to banned IP's?
If every breach is logged a huge percentage of Germans will be found out as perverts.

No.
In my country, authorities only allow single ROT-29 encryption, mainly due to unresonably hard to decrypt letters;
Å, Ä and Ö.
Who's on BASE-2?
Almost... People who post an original joke, people who follow up with an ok joke, and people who post lame jokes when they see a pattern.
Wait.. Now I'm the bad guy?
Almost; the EU Data Retention Directive calls storing user logs for at least 6 months.
The idea is almost zen. How to screw the user yet not screw the user?

Where exactly did he get his numbers? I wonder?

Same with me, so don't ask me too often.

Sometimes, I want something to actually be MINE.
