That would have been 0.00. You'd be acquitted. Or they could've refused to let you have one. That would look really bad for them at trial - you'd be acquitted.
Don't show someone with a european IP ads for america only products. Surely that shouldn't be that hard?
And for an American who is vacationing in Europe, or European living in the USA while VPN'd into his employer's network in Europe and then accessing the web from there, your solution actually removes relevent advertising.
The location of your IP isn't necessarily your physical location and even if it is, it may only be their location for the very short-term.

Also the ISP/hosting industry in the United States is running with severely low profit margins. Cutthroat does not even begin to describe it.
Godaddy hosting will put you on the web for $3.95/month! Heck, I spent more than that for lunch today. I have no idea how they can offer that (and that is for what is actually a usable hosting plan for many, many small businesses).
With those kind of prices and competition I do feel some sympathy for the ISP/hosting companies not wanting to spend extra resources or take legal risk.
I was thinking once of getting into the ISP and/or hosting businesses, but no more. There is no way I could make it (I live in the USA).
For example, if you decrypt the following and/or post the plaintext I could in theory use the DMCA against you. No, I won't actually do it. I do wonder how soon someone will in fact post a decryption of it here. And how long before someone posts a one-line Perl script decrypter and makes it open-source.:)

One doesn't have to be an automotive engineer to realize the a car which explodes in a 3 mph crash is a bad thing.
One doesn't need to be a GUI writer to realize Gnome and KDE are bloated.
Once should be able to run a standard GUI (KDE or Gnome) on less-than-state-of-the-art (but still reasonable) hardware and have it not perform horribly.
You do realize that your post can subject you to severe civil and criminal liability under them DMCA (or equivalent law in your country, e.g. EUCD in the EU).
We are talking hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines and being Bubba's roomate in a Federal prison for many years of your life. By the time you get out, you might be so old you can barely even hear music anymore.
The DMCA makes even pathetic DRM have the force of US Federal Law (non-US people, your country probably passed an equivalent law).
Any circumvention is likely illegal. Even the trick involving certain protected media and a certain key on the computer keyboard is likely illegal (being vague so I don't violate the law). Or at least the court which takes all your assets and makes you Bubba's roomate in the Federal penitentiary thinks so, and their opinion is the one that matters.
Setting bit 5 of memory location 53270 on a C64 will likely damage hardware.
I did it (I had thought it was a reboot, like setting bit 1 on a PC at 0x92 really is) and could feel excess heat from the keyboard and smell a sickly smell (overheating conductive paste?), I shut it down before anything broke permanently.

They already can monitor pacemakers non-invasively.
And it is only 9 seconds at 100 mph.
Which a lot of truck drivers do, especially if they have perishables which will go bad and they won't get paid.
You should've demanded a blood test.
That would have been 0.00. You'd be acquitted.
Or they could've refused to let you have one. That would look really bad for them at trial - you'd be acquitted.
Yeah, because spending $3.95 a month for web hosting is just too much to ask!
False info could be a DMCA access circumvention offense.

Every car produced in the US has the ability to exceed any posted speed limit.
Not the Geo Metro or for that matter, any electric car.
Hell, you can buy Potassium Perchlorate, fine Aluminum powder, and some timed fuse legally online.
Okay Mr. Bin Laden, the police will be over shortly.
Just be glad you didn't KILL yourself or someone else.
DUI is a very serious crime. I've seen what can happen to survivors and I almost lost someone very dear to me to one.
It's isn't a joke, or a minor "lapse in judgement".
Law enforcement has my fingerprints and I haven't ever been arrested.
They were taken as part of a background check.
And they'll likely be in there forever.
"Properly configured firewall" ,eh?
:)
iptables -F
iptables -I INPUT -j DENY
iptables -I OUTPUT -j DENY
That'll protect you
main doesn't take void arguments.
You lose points for inefficient coding.

You should have said this:
perl -pe 'tr/A-Za-z/ZA-Yza-y/'

In your situation you say it was dealt with appropriately. I'd hope that includes the other party getting arrested for extortion.
DMCA covers text.

This is the second "methamphetamine" reference I have seen on Slashdot this week.
Maybe "tweaking" here is going to mean more than just performance tuning.
Are we overclocking people now?

Why use vi when there is emacs? :)
Maybe we'll get a house guest that claims he bought Crystal Meth for Linus!
That would explain some of the filesystem bugs.
Just kidding, geez, don't flame me into the ground.

Didn't they implement that on all the Britney Spear's CDs? :)

CIH destroyed hardware.
It reflashed the BIOS so the computer would never boot again.
That is highly destructive in my book.
