Well, technically, the FAA is there to regulate aircraft activity, and we probably don't want to know the accident rates, so I can't blame them for trying to reduce their numbers.
It's just that celebrities don't want to be photographed naked on their rooftop terrace. Those pix bring in some serious bread. Drones would be buzzing around Beverly Hills like flies on shit.
Exactly, that's how the law has been twisted. Every thing we do is somehow involved in not just interstate, but global commerce. Show me your import/export papers and manifests and customs stamps and bank statements please. This 'commercial use' thing is nothing but an attempt to circumvent the 1st Amendment. They'll make it so that nobody can draw a sign because somebody made money selling magic markers.
Then the FAA should take it up with Google, not the guy uploading the footage. It is not commercial to him, or is he using it for advertising his own business?
Those with the money decide who we get to vote for...
That is such bullshit. The idiots who believe their propaganda and expect them to bring back some juicy contracts decide who you get to vote for. The entire blame for all of it falls squarely on the voters' laps. They sell their votes to the bling.
Just make sure to keep the dream alive and blame it on anything and everything but ourselves. No no no... We play no part. We are just helpless passengers.
Science needs to be vilified in the press in order to maintain a complaint following. We are seeing fanaticism (religious, political, economic, etc.) desperately drawing every breath to keep itself in the forefront against all odds.
Heh, if you prefer to have holes drilled in your skull, be my guest. I think going the 'Fantastic Voyage' route is more interesting, especially with live video from the inside.
Well, if you can't be bothered to oversee your government, I guess you shouldn't expect much, doesn't sound like it's their fault though. Competency of a government is only a reflection of the competency of the people that vote it into place.
Without Genesis we will not 'terraform' anything. And in the case of Mars we would need to 'reignite' the core to get the juices flowing again. Right now it's cold dead rock. Venus on the other hand is full of energy and material we can exploit, and it's a lot closer than Europa or Titan.
If they didn't do it somebody else would, that would include using the government itself to produce and compete in the market. We don't need big business to corrupt the government to get the things we need.
There are few industries more corrupt than pharmaceuticals. Most of the money goes to buy offs and other backdoor deals to block out any competition. The legal and bureaucratic wastelands are their creation to serve that purpose. Anything at all that can break their stranglehold can only be seen as good, by anybody outside the industry of course.
Exactly. Economic 'statistics' are really economic propaganda. To control inflation, prices are not raised, you just get more watered down products. More jobs, lower wages and less benefits. Economics is a religion, not a science. It ignores critical data.
Oh dear! Somebody might lose their vacation house in the Hamptons! What, do you think nobody will fill in the hole? You don't see opportunity where there was none? What is wrong with prying the market open?
Then be a survivor and make your plans. Just live a good life and hope others follow your example. Do not blame others for any difficulties you might have, just work around them.
Let's hope it's devastating. Anything that could loosen their stranglehold on medicine can only be seen as a good thing. But like the writers guilds back in the day, they will probably try to have the molecular printing press banned.

You a lawyer?

Yep, Google is 'profiting' from the footage. Let them pay whatever fines pop up, or block the clips. That would be interesting.
Can someone point out to me which part of the 1st Amendment it is in?
Every thing you do is personal. Always. You make the choices you make.

What, they make 'em watch TV?

GDP figures are more easily faked than CO2 levels.

Watch out! A bunch of sickos are writing the law..
Why not just create a rule of no unauthorized celebrity content? If the idea is to avoid litigation, then that's the most obvious choice...
Could be bad for business. You get too restrictive, and some competition might pop up.

Eh, that's life. You takes your chances. Whatever life you lead, enjoy, or suffer, you alone are responsible. I don't play your blame game.
Explain where the disconnect is, and maybe I can assist you.
