    Adam Smith, Wealth of nations, p107, about the ones making profits: " The proposal of any new law or regulation of commerce which comes from this order, ought always to be listened to with great precaution, and ought never to be adopted till after having been long and carefully examined, not only with the most scrupulous, but with the most suspicious attention. It comes from an order of men, whose interest is never exactly the same with that of the public, who have generally an interest to deceive and even to oppress the public, and who accordingly have, upon many occasions, both deceived and oppressed it." http://www.gutenberg.org/files/38194/38194-h/38194-h.htm Why don't we listen ???

    no high unemployment rates in Germany ? Could you tell me what the Belgian and French medias mean when they say "Germany has no unemployment, instead they have several thousand 1€/hour workers in the car industry". What's the trick ?

  16. Re:Eh... on The Trouble With 4K TV · · Score: 1

    I get the point, but I live in Belgium, where the "private copy" law allows me to rip my rentals (and even to go to the library and copy-with my own hardware only-any books/CD/DVD I want) - as long as it is to be used in a "familly environment". So I was a bit surprised by the whole point of getting caught... The way it's done here, if you rent something, the price you pay includes 1. The rental of the pysical object 2. the fee to pay the author. Since you paid the fee to the author, you might not be allowed to keep the physical media you rented, but you paid the "licence" to the work... And there's a tax on USB/SD Card/HDD which compensates, once again, the authors since those devices are (as worded in the law) "purposedly made to copy IP works". So, we're allowed to copy. But not to distribute.

  25. Re:EU law trumps National law? on EU Court Asked To Rule On Private Copying · · Score: 2

    Our governments simply try to copy the United States of America: 27 states under one single authority. Replace our EU comissioners by your lobbyists, and it's pretty much the same... They see USA as a model of perfect organization to develop and maintain the richest on top, and since we pay far too much our politicians, they're the one who want that kind of EU.
