As explained above ISP are included in the safe harbor by the nature of the service they provide. They do not need to do anything to keep this status except keep providing the service they do.
Sorry but you are ridiculously and blatantly wrong. ISP are already excluded of any liability from the DCMA regardless of what they do. Period. And although users can be prosecuted by the DCMA that is not the ISP responsibility. ISP has the single responsibility to provide the identity of the IP user whenever a judge orders a subpoena.
It doesn't work like this. The ones in the middle management are always go down with the leaders, as long as you are in the losing side. If you are in the winning side, like US, you can do pretty much whatever you want, you won't be judged for war crimes, ever.
There is no relation at all between this agreement and DCMA. DCMA excludes the ISPs of any responsibility and never applied to the end users. This is a pure commercial agreement, it is not designed to comply or help to comply with any law.
Until punishment for breaking any unjust law becomes capital punishment. Then nobody does it anymore and all unjust laws prevail. We would never have had Rosa Parks, or Martin Luther King if the punishment they would get for civil disobedience was death or life in prison. A few people may be crazy enough to try in these conditions, but they would be few and fewer each generation.
At this point civil disobedience cannot happen anymore, and anything short of a full and bloody revolution is completely ineffective. A point where a person can be condemned to 35 years in prison for "crimes" like Aaron's.
Simple. If you formerly liked big budget games and they turn into something you can't possibly like anymore you try other things. There are a myriad of smaller budget developers out there, from indies to small and medium companies. Nobody really needs to accept these practices.
There is no clear distinction. All information regards the state, is used by it, and when denied can serve as a source of empowerment and domination for those that control it.
I argue that for most people for whom backup is an issue, root is not a big deal. Most people unable to root only need backup for what is already automatically backed up.
No, you cannot from Google, but there are non root apps that will do just that for you, like Backup pro, and, of course, if you are rooted you can use Titanium Backup, which is much much better than anything possible on an iPhone, jailbroken or not.
Considering you have access to the user file system you just need a normal PC backup application to backup user data, and calendar, contacts and tasks are synchronized to the cloud by default whenever you connect to the Internet.
You are exaggerating, but even if you weren't we are talking about now not 2 years ago. LG, HTC and specially Samsung high-end phones are considerably superior to the iPhone in pretty much everything.
The more people you have in control of a company the more interests that have to be met so the company stays running. You may believe otherwise, but you are just wrong.
Won't happen because it goes against other big interests, those being offering crappy connectivity for high prices.Hardware manufactures have no control over the quality and availability of internet connections, especially in mobile equipments.
Because smartphones cut a considerable part of the mobile market where they previously dominated among other things, and because consoles as a whole had diminishing sells through the last years.
As usual in most "scientific" papers, this one talks about obviousness. All cultures have their own idiosyncrasies. To use subjects from one to predicted behavior on the other is a perfect path to failure. Actually even using groups inside a given culture to predict the behavior of the whole is due to failure most of the time.

So no, you are just wrong.
Do you work in US government? ;)

Your moral views are not only illogical, they are a double standard themselves and thus hypocritical.
Where "The Enemy" is US general population.

There is no six-strike law for illegal downloading in US. At least yet.

But at least in this case the accuser has to pay too, and more.

I am sad for you, but sooner or later Apple will screw you up enough for you to move away, rest assured.

When the vulnerabilities are a desired feature that tells a lot about the manufacturer's policies.
It would be a nice argument and all if a locked Android phone wasn't about as permissive as a jailbroken iPhone.
A pity they are sadly mistaken.

Won't ever happen. There are and always will be reasons to have machines disconnected from the Internet.
