Hi, I'm from a new company called the UAC to field questions such as these. We have developed a process that destabilises the atomic structure of pulverised iron oxide and separates it into subatomic particles which are then siphoned off to create new elements.
Like alchemists of old the Elemental Phase Deconstructor allows us to transform red martian soil into clean air, fresh water and hydrogen fuel, the building blocks for a sustainable human friendly martian environment. And this is only the beginning.
With continued research we envision creating evermore complex molecules, even organic matter itself. Atom by atom the UAC is building an even brighter future for humankind.
We are currently looking for talanted demon^H^H^H^H^H humans to occupy positions that have recently opened up. If you are interested please email me at ipromiseiamnothellspawn@iwilleatyoursoul.com.
Honestly, I am ashamed to be living in this country at the moment. If our founding fathers were to see what is happening right now, they would turn over in their fucking graves, and then ask to be rebuired in Europe. We beleive that we are the greatest country in the world, even when we were founded on the concept of equality. We sit back and let the "big guy" make, break, or bend all the rules and then complain that we can't do a thing about it.
Now I know that most of you are thinking, "What do you mean?? I've made my post! I've written my congressmen! I've done my part!" Well have you? They say that the pen is mightier than the sword, but in this case, we might have to try harder.
Look, I'm not trying to be a troll here (although it may be too late), and I might be a little off topic, but this law just underlines a much bigger problem. We, "Joe Sixpack", don't make the laws anymore. Now it is the person or corporation with the most money. If this gets passed, how far will they go? They are asking for permission to legally commit crimes. I thought that laws were put into place so that this sort of thing wouldn't happen!
I wonder at what point the revolt will happen.
Maybe not a revolt, but just an eye opener. When will we finally realize that this sort of thing has gotten completely out of hand? To me, the scariest thing is this isn't the government we are talking about, but a CORPORATION, "a body formed and authorized by law to act as a single person although constituted by one or more persons and legally endowed with various rights and duties including the capacity of succession" (Merriam-Webster). I don't see anywhere in there that says they can make the law.
It's so blatantly obvious to the rest of the world that your corporations are out of control.
They are out of control, and as for all of you that don't live in america, I envy you. Its hard to live in a country where everyone wants a peice of the pie, and then some. It doesn't leave that much for the little people.
I say that if this actually gets passed, we fight back. I could maybe understand if they were targeting the person who was actually breaking the law, but that's not the case. I don't want my connection going down just because some asshole decided to go download "Fight Club." Why must we be punished for the actions of another? I say if you get DoSed, DoS them right back. tacokill is right. If this does get passed, it should be open season.
If it isn't... well, then I want a first-class, one-way ticket to anywhere but here.

We need to let Microsoft know that they may be in some sort of trouble and... oh, wait... nevermind.

Did anyone else read "Is Microsoft Hoisting Its Own Copyright Retard?"
You make a very good point. When will we wake up?
