  1. This is interesting on In the UK, a Plan To Criminalize Illegal Downloaders · · Score: 2, Informative

    Despite what Darth Mandelson says, it is a little odd that these plans have come out just after he attended a dinner with David Geffen, who is a massive critic of file sharing: http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/the_web/article6797844.ece

  2. Re:Source on UK Possibly Exploring "Google Tax" · · Score: 1

    You speak the truth sir. Their politics combined with a general hatred of all things BBC mean this has to be taken with several pinches of salt. I'm also genuinely surprised they didn't manage to work Jonathan Ross or Russell Brand into that article.

  3. Hmm on Amazon Culls "Offensive" Books From Search System · · Score: 1

    I find it amusing that a search for "playboy" or "penthouse" doesn't seem to have been affected by this change. So erotica (particularly of the homosexual kind it seems) is suddenly too hardcore for customers, but the shit Playboy peddles is ok? As others have said, a simple "safe-search" would suffice.
