If your Congress changes your fucked up copyright laws there will be no need for filesharing laws. Or laws that tell you what programms are constitutional or not
It's only a matter of time until companies bribes lobby for a new law.
Reasons for this new law: - companies suffer from bad business models - terrorists use P2P to communicate - terrorists coordinate their attacks with P2P - corrupt politicans - its a communist thing to share things - WMD (This time for real)

That's the first you can read on this page. Can it get clearer than this that they are NOT Falwell?
In the middle age the catholic church had the power to influence people (crusades, building of gigantic chathedreals...).
Today the church has almost no power. The official church (Rome) preaches fear. For example what you have to fear if you committ a sin.
The local church preaches to be good to your neighbors and to respect them no matter what colour, religion or sexual beliefs they have.
That's the way religion should be exercised. But in USA religion is a business. It's about the contributions. A "preacher" preaches these things their believers wants to hear and in return get him the maximum contributions.
Engineer: Our new chipset is capable of running DDR2-533 memory modules at 667MHz. We can jumpstart shipping... Marketing: STOP! Right now there is no demand for such a thing. Let's wait till we are ready with a new promotion song from Christina Aguilera. Engineer: But no one buys our chips because of the promo and the songs we have. Our customers buy because of the specifications. Right now we have... Marketing: Who are you to tell ME what our customers want? Stick to your soldering gun and chips! Engineer: But the Intel guys in their funny radioprotection overalls didn't accelerated sales.... Marketing: No buts! We start marketing this feature for christmas. Engineer: But...

1) Sing or play a song:
- Text and Music have to be in the Public Domain
- A nursery rhyme is just fine. 2) Recod this song in your favorite format (mp3,ogg,divx,mpeg,...)
3) Use a P2P application to share "your" song
Your arguments:
- Freedom of speech
- You want to promote your singing skills
- You are better than any of the American Idols

There was a commercial campaign about 1997 or 1996 befor the CeBIT trade fair. That showed 2 business men shake hands and exchange digital business cards.
Maybe IBM was first in this one....

that's the same as a Faraday cage. No signal in means no signal out!
Does that mean I can't patent my own copper wire net?
Can you patent the laws of physics?
If yes, I patent the gravity and demand fees for using my patent....

Sorry it's "disease" - I wrote that it "can cross" and it "could be that"
Of course Monsanto want's to establish an monopoly on crop. The farmers have to use their pesticides that is engineered for their crop...
And if you are really worried about feeding the worlds poor, western diets are way too high in meat in the first place and it takes 1000 pounds of grain to make 1 pound of beef. And do all your apples need to look so perfect? There is no food shortage in the world. What's missing is a sufficent and steady distribution of the surplus of food to those who need it.
The companies (crop and chemical) tell the world: "With our products we can ease the lack of food because we protect the crop with chemicals and GM crop is not affected by the local bugs.... " It's a business world out there!

· Score: 2, Informative
Bugatti was bougt by Audi in 1998?. Audi is part of the Volkswagen AG.
They have tremendous problems with the gearbox. The 1000hp is only a marketing thingy. But now their problem is that their gear box breaks after about 3 months with the power of the 1000hp. Their solution: A smaller version with only 800hp to match the gearbox.
Their problems: - customers ordered the 1000hp version not the smaller one - producing a gearbox to handle all that torque that 1000hp produce.
Are there any cars out there better than this? Porsche Carrera GT At Porsche the don't design for top speed for driving straigt ahead, they design for top speed in curves!
With gene manipulation for food we give anmimal and plant deseases a chance to infect mankind not only animals and plants. There is a barrier for these deseases. With GM this barrier may be torn down.

Think about it!
Does Monsanto has the right to demand a kind of (IP) license from IAAF or the athlets?
For this business thing:

Enough said about religion an preachers.
Even if some people like Jerry Falwell don't like gays, there are gays and lesbian christians out there.
Does Falwell think these are no christian? Why?
These gays and lesbians want to voice their opinion (=free speech) against the religious view of Falwell.
The question is, why does marketing have say over engineering?
Don't ask me,
ask the guy with the tie
and a MBA.
That's why he is here.
He knows what to do!
That's a marketing decision.

- Text and Music have to be in the Public Domain
- A nursery rhyme is just fine.
2) Recod this song in your favorite format (mp3,ogg,divx,mpeg,...)
3) Use a P2P application to share "your" song
Your arguments:

- You are better than any of the American Idols
-
You have another legal use of P2P.

If I can avoid GM food I avoid it because of the above reason!

This dot-com bubble already burst in Germany in 1999/2000. There is no need for such service.
There is also no need for cellphones with a built in digicam.
