...The problem with using the internet as your news source is that you are reduced to making uninformed decisions about which particular internet pundit to listen to.
An even bigger problem is that apparently the U.S. Courts don't seem to regard the internet as 'press', and hence afforded first amendment protection, even though it is estimated that 15% of the U.S. use it as their primary news source.
The Napster, decss, 2600, sundry p2p, Sklyerov(?) cases
are all press-freedom cases and should all have been thrown out of court on first amendment grounds alone. (please note: the first amendment does not say '..except in cases involving copyright or kiddy porn').

The real shame is that you even have to point this out. It should be painfully obvious to all.
Unfortunately, and even more painfully, it is apparent that your observation is not obvious to many, so thanks for making it.
Since I didn't read the actual surveys, I wonder how sensitive they were to such non-governmental manipulation.
...I believe that human beings are extremely amenable to suggestion...
You don't have to qualify that as a mere 'belief'. The fact that 50 million Americans voted for an idiot for president, and likely will again, pretty much proves it.
....Since when does freedom of speach extend to the illigal distribution of copywritten movies over the internet?....
Since the First Amendment listed no exceptions or quilifications. Try reading it! Just because the American Judiciary is too stupid/corrupt to read it doesn't mean you can't.
A minor quibble: The 'Highest Law of the Land' is and must be the Constitution itself, and not the Supreme Court. If we depend on 'high priests' to interpret the Constitution for us, then it does not exist, for practical purposes, and we live in a (non-constitutional) autocracy. To that purpose, it must be the duty of every citizen to obey the constitution especially when even the Supremes misinterpret it.
The analogy with the protestant reformation, (replacing the Constitution with the Bible, and the Supreme Court with the Pope), is instructive here.
It is interesting that the Constitution is replete with limitations on the Legislative and Executive branches but is singularly silent on even the duties, let alone any limitations, on the Judicial.
For this reason I consider it yours and my constitutional duty to violate unconstitutional laws, e.g. the DMCA and most copyright law as well.
Of course, we must also be ready to pay the price for doing our constitutional duty (if you are not a USian, then YMMV), namely fines, prison, excecution, etc.
about your sig: it is ironic that you allude to the second amendment, when the first amendment is not only much more important, but is the one under attack here.
The second amendment in reality serves no useful purpose, and has always been a red herring. Without the first amendment to protect it, it can never allow opposition to get past the 'Freemen' stage. Once the second amendment is really needed, it is already too late.
To further illustrage my point, whom are you prepared to shoot to get the DMCA repealed.
I respectfully suggest you forget about the second and concentrate your indignation and effots to protect and enforce the first.
Its an even poorer craftsman who cant tell a good tool from a bad one.

is that with all the sanctimonious condemnation of file sharers as thieves, so far no one has dwelt opon the truly egregious thievery going on by the RIAA. That is, that they stole and continue to steal CONGRESS from the American people. (Not to mention the executive and judiciary, I mean come on people, Dubya? Scalia? Thomas? Ashcroft? Rumsfeld?)
They effectively take you and me out of the loop and expect us to have any respect for the laws they pass? Check your local copy of the Declaration of Independence for a take on what a "Good American"'s reaction is supposed to be to that.

Furthermore, my original post was moderated 1 Flamebait, and 2 Troll. Its clear that Slashdot as a community cant take criticism or tolerate outside opinions.

But I WOULD want to live in a nation where corportations were not allowed to pay people to speak... for any reason.
Let people speak, and let corporations make things. The perfect solution. Speech is not regulated but commerce is. Very constitutional.

Well, you've certainly alleviated any doubts anyone might have had as to whether racism was
still alive and kicking in the U.S.
That's easy. Bush is an incompetent fool. Cheney et. al. are cunning and devious.
Actually, a much better case can be made for
the contention that the invoker of Godwin's law
WINS the discussion.
