If the 3 major console makers decided they are not going to comply with this law and just stop selling consoles in NY I bet the law would disappear pretty fast due to public out cry.
Wouldn't happen of course since the cost to implement parental controls is very likely less than the lost revenue from NY in this case, and at least one console (Wii) already has them.
They own the site. The hosting company own the server (unless their own their own server as I strongly suspect they do) The registrar (or perhaps more accurately ICANN) owns the domain.
It's not like suddenly all cars would become electric. It would take many years to phase our gas cars, plenty of time for more power plants to be built.

Don't buy from GoDaddy. There are better and cheaper alternatives.

And unlike godaddy that on is not a chained cert.
I was referring to the crusaders and the organizations that specifically go after this.
But fair enough in this context.
Also, if they solve the problem, they won't have a reason to exist anymore.
They need something to justify their existence (and pay check).
Pretending to do something is much easier than actually doing something.
Ya, but it's made by Microsoft. The retail ones have the same rootkit.
This is an important ruling. I don't want Viacom to know how often I get Rick Rolled.
Just release it under BSD license.
Worked for them on 9/11
We all expect this kind of crap from China or the US, but not from most European countries.
I think you are massively underestimating the incompetence of private business.

Why not both?
Plug in at night. Swap batteries at gas stations for long trips.
Only if you format the volume with RiserFS.
You don't have to leave the hard-drives plugged in.
Just wait 'till somebody hacks them.
Shocking fellow passengers for fun.

Unless you encrypt, you are at their mercy.
That is RAM not disk space.
That was once a good answer, but with name based virtual hosting, that just doesn't work.
Also, with IP6 coming it's not so convenient. Memorizing 4 octets isn't hard, but I don't want to have to memorize IP6 addresses.
Operating/system
Thats what they get for buying it instead of pirating it. The cracked version(s) don't have any problems like this.
Protection like this certainly doesn't encourage paying for the game when the free version is better.
C-3PO of course.
