    It is $4 from an actual assembly plant that ran in the US for a little while.

    Youtube still has commercials and does in fact pay the music industry (not sure about artists cut) to play songs.

    Fixed that for you. Youtube works under the exact same model as AM/FM radio, and when DCMAs of people's unlicensed usages are submitted, they even give the artists those proceeds as well.

    He is just bitching because Internet killed the Video star. He doesn't get it that Youtube is not required, or frankly able, to police its own content to prevent people posting unlicensed copies. This is what the DCMA is for, but all the RIAA/MPAA idiots seem to think that Youtube/Google should have to pay for proactive policing of their content.

  4. So you mean first amendment like the J Law pictures that were posted to porn sites?

    https://www.flsenate.gov/Sessi...

    47 (2) As used in this section, the term:
    48 (a) “Image” includes, but is not limited to, any
    49 photograph, picture, motion picture, film, video, or
    50 representation.

    53 (c) “Sexually cyberharass” means to publish a sexually
    54 explicit image of a person that contains or conveys the personal
    55 identification information of the depicted person to an Internet
    56 website without the depicted person’s consent, for no legitimate
    57 purpose, with the intent of causing substantial emotional
    58 distress to the depicted person.

    70 (4)(a) A law enforcement officer may arrest, without a
    71 warrant, any person that he or she has probable cause to believe
    72 has violated this section.

    99 (7) A violation of this section is committed within this
    100 state if any conduct that is an element of the offense, or any
    101 harm to the depicted person resulting from the offense, occurs
    102 within this state.

    So, how exactly does this not fall under the criminal statute of Florida? I see nowhere in that law that has an exception in the case of the press publishing a video or photo of someone without their permission because it is "news".

    62 (3)(a) Except as provided in paragraph (b), a person who
    63 willfully and maliciously sexually cyberharasses another person
    64 commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as
    65 provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.
    66 (b) A person who has one prior conviction for sexual
    67 cyberharassment and who commits a second or subsequent sexual
    68 cyberharassment commits a felony of the third degree, punishable
    69 as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.

    76 (5) An aggrieved person may initiate a civil action against
    77 a person who violates this section to obtain all appropriate
    78 relief in order to prevent or remedy a violation of this
    79 section, including the following:
    80 (a) Injunctive relief.
    81 (b) Monetary damages to include $5,000 or actual damages
    82 incurred as a result of a violation of this section, whichever
    83 is greater.
    84 (c) Reasonable attorney fees and costs.

    Good luck on that appeal...oh, and I would avoid visiting Florida for a while if I were the reporter or editor, as this was pretty willful.

    It is illegal to post sex tapes of someone without their permission, this is why porn companies get model releases.

  6. Do you have actual information to support this? I would be interested in what specific initiatives he supports.

  7. Except that it isn't the law. The ultimate law of the land is the constitution. The baker's religion says that homosexuality is wrong, and a sin, so why should they be forced to bake a cake for a homosexual couple? What law states that they have to give up their religion in order to run a bakery?

  8. Isn't that something the Hulk said?

  9. It is kind of moot though, as publishing someone's sex tape without their permission is illegal even if they were the one who setup the camera.

    According to Wikipedia (the ultimate authority that it is not), my usage is correct.

    My understanding was that Hillary wanted a Blackberry (like Obama) and that was denied because it was a one off for the president. They offered Hillary the standard secure mobile solution, and she balked.

  25. In the case of OLED, it is use of the pixel over time, and that a certain color (I think blue) wears out quicker. More use of the pixels will cause the burnout to happen quicker, not slow it down.
