I bet they would take this far more seriously and actually PASS some sort of privacy law. If this had happened to a politicians or high profile family. While everyone here makes good points, you fail in noticing just who the rules change for. And that should be even more disturbing than the useless image of a dead person.
How long does it take the wave to brake and hit the shore shit. They are creating laws that only impoverish us by forcing us to pay for culture when it should be free. Our education will suffer by these laws as well. We are selling out our freedom and the futures freedom with these ridicules laws.
I am currently in the process of working on my music cd. I can not believe any audience I might get is going to appreciate me if I use this copyright to protect my creations in order to make money for lazy fucks who don't deserve a penny. I mean for fucks sake, who deserves to be rewarded for their creation after they die, let alone more than 10 - 15 years at best. For your lazy spoiled kids? Either create in a timely manner or GTFO. No one on this planet is a fucking god, so lets not write laws that make them so. Yah Think? I've made up my mind, just me and my creation and a respectful option to pay for my hard work to whom may appreciate my efforts. Fuck these companies and these laws, they are completely insulting, absurd and create a HUGE cultural imbalance for US, the people and the future. FUCK YOUR GREEDY LAZY BULLSHIT 70 YEARS!!!!
will be allowed to create and educate themselves on the internet.
The moment someone creates a limit on how much information one can send or access is the moment the divide between rich and poor begins.
There is no bandwidth congestion, look at all the other countries with HUGE amounts of bandwidth to each individual person.
Over here, we make money by bandwidth limitation. When we should be making money by bandwidth creation like every other country.
We suck and so do our companies. We are killing our own culture and limiting creation and education with these bandwidth caps.
I wonder how Amazon would filter this shit?
This http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B000N2CXFU?ie=UTF8&redirect=true is one step closer to fulfilling a particular desire, you think?
And you do not even want to know the other crap that Amazon sells.
I am absolutely convinced and cautious that the consciousness of the people in this world and their respective "business's" are confused.
In the end your sanity and safety will always fall second to greed and profit. I look at my son and daughter and do my best for them.
Solar along with thermal, will no doubt, be the future of our energy. One can claim ownership of land and now, they, "the few" will attempt to own the light. Quite honestly, I believe this is just a cycle change for our planet and people are over reacting. Yes we see the results of global warming, but I am cautioned to see that maybe we are letting our fears get the better of us here. Instead of inventing new ways to pollute our atmosphere with these particles, or attempts to "control" light, we should rather be cleaning up our existing mess. I see yet again, the combination of media twisting fears, greed of money and desire for supreme control over the masses driving us to a new set of future conflicts. Oh and lets not forget shear boredom as well. I am not impressed.
As technology moves further forward and people slowly slip away into intellectual oblivion, there will be no need for human destruction. Your physical enslavement is all the "powers that be" ever wanted, as to provide this convenience only to these privileged, all the comforts of this numerically guaranteed leisurely existence. But alas, many will dismiss this point, which in the end, only provides the truth of what I am saying. So sit idly back and ride that wave, eventually they brake for everyone. Unless you obtain the skills of the "great ones" who only catch rides on the backs of anothers wave, only to stab its back as the shoreline comes into view. See, who needs nukes. We have our lab rats right where we want them. Only reality is, those lab rats are each one of us. Personally I don't give a fuck. Most people are morons anyhow. Good luck with the vote...heh
Anyone else get that mental image, when those machines in the War of the Worlds (2005), were running around capturing the people and sucking their blood in order to keep functioning? I'm all for scientific advancement but recent breakthroughs and peoples mindsets about them, have been horrifying me as of late. I'm starting to feel like a lab rat in waiting. Screw that!
While we ponder the great Creationist/Evolutionary arguments of today, I can see ourselves "becoming" the "creators" of a new breed of life. Thanks to Science.
What then, will those creatures we had created, say to one another when "we" are long gone and they themselves ponder their own existence and "perhaps" a distant of a "once lived creator/s" Some of us may not believe in creationism, however we sure are trying to prove it, by allowing ourselves to exercise the freedom of creating new life. Ahhhh, and so the circle of life comes full turn.
THIS is the most sane person here IMO. I am sure "those" who post entire copy written tests are subject to psychological evaluation too, no?.... pffft.
All I can say is WAY TO GO MAN! Employers, PhD's and Law enforcement are not the only ones who can make an evaluation call on who is "psychologically sane", and screw your damn DMCA Bullshit, people have a right to know how "fair or unfairly" they are being judged. So stick that in your "psychological lab rat copy written money manipulation machine" and choke on it, Jerks!
Max Payne, enjoyed both of'em and have been waiting about *5 YEARS* for Alan Wake. What is the hold up guys? Cause of your lameness, looks like you lost out to develop M Payne 3. Wonderful....
I don't want to come off as brash here but all I can say is screw democracy. It was never instilled in the original doctrines that founded this country to begin with. And for good reasons, known even then. You guys wanted a popularity contest, well now you got it, and guess what, most of you are gonna find out you are not a part of the "club" This is or should be a republic. Regardless of your liberal or conservative points of view. When will you realize that both the democratic & republican parties are not concerned about your liberties and only concerned about (mostly their) not your, bottom line. Copyright/IP laws are culturally inhibiting on MANY levels of our individuals freedoms. But you guys already know that, so why in the hell do we let them get away with this abuse to control and manipulation of our senses? Me, I was once a true democrat, still liberal in some ways. But with every day, I am turning more conservative as time passes. Our culture, our jobs, our freedoms, our pride, is and has been for years, being sold out, only to benefit the few in the "club" and who pays the price? Yeah. All this bullshit makes me wanna hurl. I am tired of the noise and tired of the abuse. As Rod Serling once put it "I am a Tired Non-Conformist" We are truly in The Twilight Zone.
Copyright act of 1790. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Act_of_1790 I completely agree that these "current laws" on copyright hurt the general growth of our culture.
In the end they hurt and hinder more than just our economy, they hurt and hinder our very essence of happiness, creativity, sharing. These laws are life numbing and limit our human senses in its basic form, more than one would suspect. It always amazes me how people don't figure this out until they have to live with these ridiculous laws for x amount of time, then ultimately lose money, and then they finally give a damn. Selfish, shameful world. Just look at the history books. I sure as hell hope we get it right this time round, ffs.
I swear, all I ever hear about is the immigrants. Did we forget that within many of our own (now naturalized) families history, we all came from immigrants? (sans Native Americans)
I am so sick and tired of the hate people place upon our naturalized citizens of the U.S. community. If you can't afford (or are to greedy) to give jobs to those who are already here, then you most certainly cannot maintain jobs for newly arrived immigrants. Never have I seen such community bias. And as for caring, well she said it right. Education has gotten so damn out of control when it comes to costs, compile that with the cost of of living, and then the sold-out business structures of yesteryear on top of the ridicules business laws that only stagnate cultural and economic growth. It is obvious why, immigrants AND native people here, are getting screwed.
The only difference is that Immigrants have another place on this planet they "can" call home. And I bet they will give a damn, far more, about their countries established communities and laws, than we do with our own. I have great grandparents who are immigrants and I know the hard work they did back when they arrived here. But I know they did not count on the fact that once their families became established here in this country, while generations ahead, the community calls us losers and other assorted pathetic names. They would roll in their graves if they saw this happening now. And you know what, I bet today's immigrants get this vibe and they leave the U.S. because they don't want their "future established families" here in the U.S. to be hated on like we obviously do to each other today. Take care of your community first, people, and everything else will fall into place. Then you can jump for joy at the new immigrants who come to this place looking for a better life. Because they will "feel" that we care about our own community. This is how it works, so wake up. This is what "used" to make the U.S. so great. Get a clue.
Same as the old boss.
Heh,
Just because the RIAA transforms, does not imply that the copyright laws they try to enforce or fight for have changed.
Slam them all you want and call'em a failure, as far as I'm concerned this means nothing. When the laws change toward cultural liberation, (like they used to be) only then will I celebrate. Only then.
Bingo! Why is it so important for this person to be able to advertise, share their personal info? Why it is to make friends. YOU only see it or feel it as an advertisement because M$ decided to ban over it. It is not like she (or he for that matter) wanted to make an issue out of it. So back to the whole sexuality thing. There is and should be absolutely nothing wrong with stating what one's sexuality is. Are only straight people allowed to converse within a particular medium about their sexuality or anything pertaining to their sexual interest? I think not.
This is great subject matter, whilst smoking a bowl with pals. So many directions we could go with this.
(takes another hit)
Huh, WHAT!?....who said that?!....
(checks pulse, looks in mirror)
shit what was I doing now?...
*It was funny to me when I wrote this!* *So F off!*
I guess I hit a nerve here. Seems like it is better not to pull from personal experience.
Maybe I should ask someone else to do my typing/thinking for me.
Sneaky or Sarcastic, yes, I am and I take comfort in this, thank you.
Fallacious argument, as I know myself, I absolutely disagree.
And you missed the point, the point of this article. If you noticed this is about privacy concerns and I was simply making an assessment as to why some might have these concerns. So I called a few of these out. Which is far more effort than you put into this topic by the way.
My error was boasting my own ego in front of everyone, however that does not devalue my views nor prevent me from expressing them, no matter what your opinion of a "fallacious argument" is. And the truth is I can't prove that to you and for that matter neither can you disprove me. Unless we are face to face.
So try to stay on topic and not get to personal.
But by all means, believe what you will.
My 2 cents...
Only the people who have past/present guilt about hiding something from someone will feel this is a horrible idea.
Remember, this is Opt-in folks.
People in relationships, you all better wake up, your gonna have to be honest by choice or by technology.
The choice is yours.
Get over it.
Me, I have no guilt, and if I change. (which I have)
I know how to do so with honor and integrity by way of honesty and no patience for lies. (from myself or from anyone else)
Control freak, perhaps, content and secure with my principals and practices, you bet!
Good Luck.
Call me paranoid, though I am concerned, a feeling like I/We are walking or rushing into fog.
I cannot shake the feeling that there is something not right with this Windows 7 hype and a rush to release. Has anyone done thorough security tests on Windows 7?
I mean yeah Vista is rough around the edges, and enough hater history to keep it in check, but does releasing Windows 7 really put M$ back on track? I have my doubts about all this Windows 7 hype. Like maybe some nasty surprise comes up after everyone jumps on the bandwagon.
Something very strange is being built up here.
Or maybe its just I'll never leave my WinXP, except for my Linux. Seriously though.
