Also, if you're running on a Microsoft OS, then chances are that you're not really going to lose sleep over adding a few more vulnerabilities, are you?
One day soon, we'll all have personally identifiable copies. Watch the handling of this, and pay particular attention to the assumptions of guilt and balance of probability arguments.
If you really believe in the spirit of GPL and FSF and all that hippy crap, assign the rights (hard copy signature, remember?) to the FSF, and have Eben Moglen, The Man Who Never Loses, kick KISS's ass.
What's that? You wish someone would do something about KISS, but not at the expense of giving up ownership of mplayer? Yeah, I thought so.
Please cite examples of where companies have told the FSF to go screw themselves, or simply ignored them, and where Eben has backed down quietely without telling anyone.
I find it hard to believe that Eben has settled every single case out of court. He's never run up against a bunch of incompetent blunderers (like KISS) who are too dumb to back down? Really?
To paraphrase Rumsfeld, we don't know if we know everything that Eben knows.
Is all that's holding my 3.5 year old Acer Travelmate together after the case disintegrated around the hinges. I've seen it on other similar models, so it's a manufacturing defect, but it's quite literally not worth pursuing. This is my 3rd line machine, so it's not even worth my time in small claims court. Once again, apathy and inertia come to the rescue of shoddy manufactuers.
Stop jizzing in your pants, and wait for the release. We've seen, what, a 3fps demo of the engine? Big whoop. What about content, what about quality?
Please don't send the message that we'll buy whatever crap is shovelled in our faces. Every pre-order is a sign to the marketdroids that quality doesn't matter.
Wait for the game. Wait for the (independent, player) reviews. Wait until your jizz-pants friend buys it and see if you like it. Wait until it hits budget. It will still be there. There's no rush.
Say, remember when the Romano-British employed one lot of maurading Saxons to protect them from another lot of maurading Saxons? How did that turn out? As I remember, the Saxons won by default... and then decided to pay one lot of maurading Vikings to protect them from another lot of maurading Vikings...
Um, perhaps because I don't want to send from ab0003cvd@residential-provider.com, but instead from postmaster@mydomain.org ?
I really don't want to pay for full hosting just for the priviledge of being able to actually use the domains that I own. But I do accept that the spammers (like The Terrorist) have already won, and that we need some kind of technical solution.
Also, I routinely download cracks (activation, no-cd) and keygens for products that I've actually bought, simply because it's more convenient than jumping through the activation/security hoops.
OK, so I go to the ECB and get the rights to reproduce the image (in, for example, an ad campaign). I can now import it into Photoshop, right? I mean, it now knows that I have the rights to do this.
Your cat, and that guy at work who rolls his eyes every time you start yammering on about your latest conspiracy theory don't technically constitute "many citizens". If there's one thing representatives can do well, it's smell bullshit at a hundred paces.
The entire Bill of Rights includes the phrase "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,". You seem to have very selective hearing.
It's good that your mind is open, if only it weren't so feeble. You've made your point, such as it is, and you've made it repeatedly. Please shut up now, because all that SCOX has going for it is publicity from clueless analysts. Don't go there.

And accept it as the cost of choosing to be an impoverished hippy rather than a corporate drone.
Why would 99% of legitimate users need the source code to their operating system?

Excellent! I guess I'll go and buy a PVR with commercial skipping and sharing. I bet there's lots to choose from!
Um...
I have no idea who he could play, I just wanted to say WilWheatonWilWheatonWilWheatonWilWheaton.

Further comment superfluous.
And I for one welcome our new lawyer overlords.

Tort. Reform. Now.
Bullshit. Not once in this story does it claim that Linus walked on water, nor did he heal the sick and lame.
Pretty funny!
Funnier still when Taco dupes it.
Yes, I just said that, but without being such an anonymous prick about it.
Sure, that's the realpolitik, but if we're being that real, then the question is rhetorical to begin with.
You, sir, are 10,000 times worse than the worst thing that anyone imagines that Michael Jackson has ever done to a child.

Right?
Are you getting the point yet?

Yourself. If you're not part of the solution, you're with the terrorists.
