  11. Re:Tagged "fuckviacom" on YouTube Must Give All User Histories To Viacom · · Score: 3, Interesting

    IANAL, but from reading the ruling, the important part i've come to so far is Section 4. Pages 11 - 14;

    "Defendantsâ(TM) âoeLoggingâ database contains, for each instance a video is watched, the unique âoelogin IDâ of the user who watched it, the time when the user started to watch the video, the internet protocol address other devices connected to the internet use to identify the userâ(TM)s computer (âoeIP addressâ), and the identifier for the video... (T)he motion to compel production of all data from the Logging database concerning each time a YouTube video has been viewed on the YouTube website or through embedding on a third-party website is granted."

    They don't get the whole video database (Section 5), they DO get Google Video database schema to check for methods employed to detect infringing videos, and they get non-content related info about other videos for purposes of comparisson with detection rates of infringing videos.

    Again, IANAL. It's just what I read.

    Urm... Yeah. I just thought that if the politicians wouldn't listen to what the people want ('By the People, For the People' and all that), then we could always SHOW them that we don't want it.

    Shooting a politician will just mean tighter controls on the right to protest. Good luck defending that position.

    You won't get a phone with WiFi for £30.

    I bought a Nokia N51 off eBay with this in mind, and i'm on O2's Simplicity plan at the moment. When I get WiFi I have free internet, when I don't I pay £1 per day for unlimited 3G access. They don't like VoIP over 3G, though.

  21. Check your Carrier's Agreement on iPhone App Enables GSM To WiFi/VoIP Switching · · Score: 3, Informative

    Your carrier may make VoIP over data connections against the ToS. I know O2 in the UK do.

    As it is, I have an E51 and use WiFi for VoIP calling. I may drop the tarrif altogether and get a PAYG sim just to keep the phone active, and for when out of WiFi range.

    If I can't use the data connection I pay for without limitations, they don't get my money. Simple as.
