A 2 year government investigation? Seriously? It's crap like this is why we're so horribly in debt, we keep on spending on the most ridiculous of things. Such a waste of tax dollars...
...was showing that it won't be using the UMD, but what looked like an SD card of sorts.
I'm excited about this mostly because the UMD is terribly annoying, it sounds like the PSP is snorting every time a game loads from it.
We've got so many real problems in our country today, and you chose to focus on this one?
I'd say ESRB does a good enough job already, you can't fix the idiot parents buying their 2 year olds GTA no many how many warning labels you slap on there.
C'mon, some villains in cartoons always had some super laser that worked really well from the moon.
Considering the reasoning we've had going into some stupid wars, I'd say this is reason enough.
Asking people to stop bashing Facebook is about as likely as asking the addicts to stop using it.
But is asking someone to stop asking others to stop bashing the service likely? Stay tuned~
Lets be totally honest, if you made the exact same movie in an alternate universe where no one cared about facebook, the movie would have bombed.
The/only/ reason that TSN did as well as it did wasn't because it was a great movie, but because every idiot facebook user went "lololololol lets go see that facebook movie"
Some of the smaller games not making all that much aren't going to look too kindly at a 30% cut. I'd imagine the larger ones won't either, but I don't think the larger ones will leave because of it.
This is going to continue until either a. the government steps in and slaps ISPs like a b**** (which won't happen since they no doubt pass tons of money to politicians under the table), or b. an ISP comes out of nowhere and starts offering amazing speeds everywhere, forcing the current ISPs to be competitive.
Since neither is likely...I'd say things aren't going to improve.
Most people with at least half a brain will see this and realize that this could happen now in the US even with all these checkpoints.
Sadly, most people who have a say lack that much brain power, and they'll cry for the government to protect them and violate them more.
How long until we get the same problem that these new airport scanners had recently? Only instead of just naked images leaked online, we get a whole video of someone changing who forgot to close their window.
No but seriously, I've bought plenty of hardware that has had some screwy screw. I give it a month (at most) before someone gets their hands on this screwdriver and starts reproducing it.
We all know that every large ISP has a hard on for the thought of yet another way for charge their customers more for improving nothing.
So of course they're going to be upset when suddenly they're told no.

...if I'm the only one that originally pictured this is how illegals would get in to this country as well. =P

$500 for an xbox? I wouldn't pay $5 for one.

It's like adding a lock on a door that leads to a house with only one wall.
Someone in a political office that actually gets it? Never thought I'd see the day...
...because it's the American way!
Apparently there's enough political figures that are into child porn, so they want to obtain it without causing any alarm.

...serial keys work OH SO WELL on the PC, no one ever finds a way to crack them...OH WAIT.
