More than a version control system, I think that the law needs a bug management system that people can use to put bugs in regarding language that's too open, phrases that allow "security flaws" and other interpretations that were not what the authors intended, etc.
So, most people see the choice as this: either buy the product as its offered and accept its limitations, or go to the black market to get what you want and send a message to the producer that their product is not acceptable.
And therein lies the false dichotomy. There's another option:
DON'T OBTAIN THE MATERIAL.
You don't need the movie that much. You can choose neither, and still send the message that the product is not acceptable.
"Due to last years study being posted on the popular nerd site 'Slashdot.org', the number of laptops 'lost' weekly at airports went from 12,000 to 20,000 per week..."
You might want to look into an insulin pump. I've been diabetic for just over 11 years, and I've been on a pump for 9. It's worlds away from multiple shots per day, and although I had to fight for the insurance to pay for my first pump, these days they're happy to pay for one.
Also, you might want to think about drinking that glass of OJ BEFORE you start the lawn mowing. You'd probably survive the heat and sun better.
As a diabetic, I've tried lots of new gadgets (helps to have a doctor that's rather technologically literate)... and the Medi-Jector was the first device aside from needles that I've tried.
It's definitely NOT painless, but for around 5-10 units of insulin, it's rather "comfortable", but anything above that can be downright painful (more of a blunt pain than a sharp needle stick pain), and has also caused me welts. It's definitely not for injections where there's a lot of fat (stomach)... only for areas like the arms and legs.
When I played AD&D in the 80's with my brother and a few friends on the block, my parents heard about this, and confiscated ALL of our D&D paraphenalia, as well as all of our heavy metal tapes (Metallica, Iron Maiden, and the like).
Fortunately, it only took us pointing out the lyrics to Guns N' Roses (that our mother enjoyed) for them to realize that we really were free thinkers, and weren't at risk of committing suicide.
If I remember correctly, auto-update does not handle Office patches, so that wouldn't stop people's Outlook from being succeptible to this.
You'd have to manually go to the Windows Update site, and then know enough to click on the Office Updates link to do it all over again. And then you need the Office CD, because it will refuse to install updates without knowing that you were, in fact, licensed to have those patches.
I've done something close to this. I found myself addicted to a huge cup of high octane coffee as an effort to supress hunger from 10am until noon. Not realizing why I started drinking coffee, I tried stopping. I just got really nasty headaches... so I tried cutting out 1/4 of my cup each day instead, and after 5 days, I was done. No headache, but my hunger made me realize why I went on it in the first place.
Turns out that I went back on it.
But that's why it's not government regulated... it's possible to get off it without too much pain, if you wean yourself off slowly.
If you end up with headaches, just do the previous days amount for another day, and wait for your body to catch up to your decreased amount.
Wow... I suppose that this means that they just outlawed PGPMime, as well as any other type of encryption (IPSec, CIPE, etc.) for use over the internet?
This is very true... especially in the wine industry, where it's typical that a wine maker gives the same UPC code to different vintages of the same wine.

I wonder if this can be used for the diabetic crowd, who typically end up with constantly changing prescriptions due to their sugar levels.

I keep wondering, why wouldn't the SSD bring back the 5 1/4" form factor? They could shove more in the space, and make bigger SSD desktop drives.
Is there any reason why the 5 1/4" size would cause issues like it causes slowness for a rotating platter?
I need this in a metric that I can understand.
How many atomic bombs does a kiloton of TNT equal?
Why not do something like this in your cron.daily:
apt-get update -qq
apt-get -s -y -qq -u upgrade | grep Conf | cut -d" " -f 2,3,4 | sort
apt-get autoclean -qq
I'm sure there are better ways to do this, but it was an easy hack.
It'll email the root user, and if you have aliases set up, send it to you if there are updates without actually performing any.

The banks are not allowed to discriminate over age, just like they can't discriminate over anything else.
Interesting implications, hasn't it?
You're forgetting that the car manufacturer requires you to buy their gasoline only, and that's how they make their money.
Different situation. Not that I disagree... Bad business models don't give them the right to sue.

Or is that not considered a "transaction"?
