    No I don't even live with them, it was just an idea of what the marketing has done. I haven't touched p2p since the grand 'ol days of Napster. These are the same people who thought Y2K was going to destroy the world and that the lovebug was going to end life as we know it.

    When laws no longer provide safety, justice, or no longer represent the majority of people, these laws need to be re-examined. The laws are supposed to protect the majority from the minority in theory.

    they decided to print out the article and come have a serious talk, and how I should realize filesharing is wrong.

    you know when your non-technical parents get it on the action, one of two things:

    1) my parents are androids from the future sent by the evil RIAA
    2) this is more of a marketing campaign then anything...

  17. So what? on eBay Provides No Privacy For Sellers · · Score: 1

    I don't understand what the big deal is here.
    E-Bay is a company, and not run by the Government. This means they are in business to make money, and don't need to represent the people.

    So as long as they are honest, and upfront about what is being shared, to who, and why, we have enough information to make an informed decision on if we are comfortable doing business with this service, and if we are not then we can take our business elsewhere.

  18. MAC Target Audience on Panther Analysis Getting Underway · · Score: 5, Funny

    A quick glace of Apple's Panther Preview Page reveals to me the level of techical ability that Apple sees in its target market.

    Panther will include a final X11 window server for Unix-based apps, improved NFS/UFS, FreeBSD 5 innovations as well as support for popular Linux APIs, IPv6 and other important acronyms.

    I wish they'd lay off the acronym support until they get those vowels working properly!
