I think the "kill switch" is a great idea. People shouldn't pirate software and then complain about annoying popup messages telling them it's pirated, or complainin it won't work anymore when they shouldn't be using it in the first place. Plus, I reckon it'd get more people switching to mac, or maybe linux, but more likely back to smelly xp. Not much better IMO.
It's the whole friggin point of the encrytion innit?
If they need to listen in on crimminals skype calls why can't they make some sort of agreement with skype?
A while ago, would have been about a year ago I saw on the news that some bloke registered a domain the same as the name of some famous person, can't remember who. Famous person tried to sue but the other bloke ended up winning the court case.
Most isp's here in Aus drop you to 64k after you have used something like 2 or 3 gig of bandwidth, which is not too bad. I'd kill for 64k, I'm on a 48k dial up connection...:(
