Going the other way: I believe not owning a cell phone at all creates an extension of this with people. They become venomous if they have no way to personally contact you through a phone and get an immediate response.

Media has said similar messages to this for at least decades. The DMCA are just another layer on top of already draconian copy right laws. It is just a case of, "First they came for, then they came for, then they came for me" type of issue. Most people have been breaking laws for years and didn't even know it. Why should the general populous care now?
It is copyright infringment if you buy a book in France and then bring it back to the US to read it. It is copyright infringment to buy a DS game while in Japan and play it on your plane right back to the US. Why do laws like this suprise people and why are they only getting aggrivated *now* when they can't get their youtube videos?
You make the invalid assumption that what I want is actually going to be available internationally. I could import it, but the content is licensed for viewing in specific regions. That means I am not legally allowed to view it no matter how I get it.
I give up. I was hoping someone was going to tell me who added that drop down first or give me something else instructively informational between the two.
I've always thought that chrome looks remarkably a lot like Safari with its interface elements... including the lack of a menu. There are a lot of Safari overtones. Then again, since I haven't used Safari in a good long while it might actually be Apple copying from Chrome now.
In all honestly, (some people may not agree) I can't help feel that the lack of a normal menu in Chrome was a lucky mistake rather than a calculated move when working with the old Webkit code.

Which makes it look all the more like a window from a native install of Safari. No?

It would have been far more interesting if they compared the accuracy to the SEGA Activator if not for the pure nostalgic value.
For the people who don't remember the activator:

(And yes, the guy with the activator beat the snot out of the guy with te controller in the video. :-))
mount it on a menubar in the center at the top of the screen. Then make it unclickable. (Points to you if you understand my reference.)
