  1. I feel like its 1999 all over again. on Ask Slashdot: Would You Pay For Websites Without Trolls? · · Score: 1

  2. So basically bit-torrent. on Six-Strikes System Starts In U.S. · · Score: 1

    I think a problem here (among a hundred more) is that, are ISPs really going to be seeing if the material being downloaded over P2P networks are really copyrighted materials? Or does this just mean, you get six strikes of P2P traffic? If I use BT to download a Linux distro, or something similiar that is not under copyright, am I going to have to pay the $35 to defend myself? What about WoW patches? Those are distributed via P2P with a HTTP backend, no?

  3. Re:Hey Cali, why stop at 2008 ... on California's Surreal Retroactive Tax On Tech Startup Investors · · Score: 1

    Statue of Limitations for retroactive taxes in California may be 5 years? That's two more year's than the IRS' statue of limitations of retroactive taxing though.

  4. Re:"Surreal"? on California's Surreal Retroactive Tax On Tech Startup Investors · · Score: 1

    C'mon, really?

    Surreal: Adjective
    Having the qualities of surrealism; bizarre: "a surreal mix of fact and fantasy".
