Tho, im sure they will do the tracking for their own purposes, this will help reduce 'bad things' from questionable sources. As always, its a trade-off.
Not to give them a free pass, but this 'guilty until proven innocent' is a byproduct of the entertainment industries. If you don't operate this way you WILL be sued by them, and if you are small ( your new start-ups you are wishing for ) you will go out of business. If you are large it will eat away at your bottom line and your board will complain.
My hunch is that Google execs could really care less what is on YouTube personally, and really hate spending the extra resources playing 'copyright cop' but they don't have much of a choice.
Even as current tech slowly inches faster, our caps are going down.. So we get 1g to the house which is cool, but use our monthly allocation of data even faster, which is not cool.
When i first heard about this i cried 'foul' and what he was doing is not a crime ( uncool perhaps ) as both parties retain copyright ownership of the video, as long as it was consensual by both parties.
However, after having time to read the details, its clear he was setting himself up for an extortion racket. Which is not legal, not morally right, and he should go to jail for it.
More options, and more hope.. and Moties look like they would be fun to hang out with. Tho preferably after the Kzin wars are over.. i don't want to be eaten by a cat.
Plastic cartridges are simple and more than adequate for small calibers. Plastic bullets, while more complex to do can be done. ( tho not with a home 3D printer )
Not only that. It has always been legal in the U.S. to make your own guns, just not to sell them to others.
Within some federal boundaries, like you cant go out and make a sub-machine gun in your garage ( legally ). Now i happen to think that its *all* a form of illegal infringement, the precedent is there. ( i wont even get into the state limitations.. more illegal infringement )
Oh, you can also sell them later, the point is you cant make them with intent to sell.
Remember too that the 'intended purpose' is not always what it appears to be. This is just about incremental removal of rights, the irrational 3D gun 'craze' is easy pickings for them to eliminate them from the legal market. One down, makes the next one even easier.

If its exclusive, i guess they will render my perfectly fine 3Gs a virtual brick.
Yes i know in theory it 'does the same stuff it does when you bought it', but as APIs change, that becomes less and less true.
Ok, that makes it not even worth reading. Morons.
You want an accurate stylus.. Ever hear of Samsung?
No kidding.. but for those that are not, ( which is a LOT of people.. ) vitamins can help.
Gotta love 'em
You are a democrat aren't you.
No, really. Turn it into a terminal that connects back to something at your place. Then you can manage it for them, like a good child should be doing.
And no, i'm not talking a VT100 as some sort of 'age joke', but a modern graphical desktop type of terminal.
Once a lawyer, always a lawyer.

I have the right to say i hate you all i like, but once i try to punch your face, ( or get someone else to do it ) i have crossed the line.
Punching you was not free speech. So, i stand by my statement its absolute.
Just don't blame NASA, blame a short-sighted congress.
I think most of us agree that free-speech is absolute, however that is not the case where this dude lives, so he should have been more cautious.
You are an idiot and don't deserve your rights.

You cant legislate courtesy.

Oh, it will, but not in the way you want.
yup

Never a good business plan, if you do it in public.
No.
Vindication.

Can i sign up to be an ARM agent?
