Don't get too excited about this ECJ ruling on internetfiltering , firstly it isn't a ruling, secondly it doesn't outlaw web-blocking.
In other words; it's all up to the individual EU memberstates now.
What i think will happen, is that France & the UK will start the nasty.biz followed by a lobbying campaign in Brussels for EU ( legislative )"harmonization"
since this is how most nasty laws are passed.
I was about to proof that BREIN indeed is RIAA/MPAA./IFPI etc.
But i get the message
"Filter error: Please use fewer 'junk' characters"
So instead, i will just type some names of company's that started the BREIN foundation.
WIch can be confirmed by the dutch pirate party.
- IFPI
- UNIVERSAL
- Buena Vista Home Entertainment
- Disney
- Microsoft
- MPAA
And so the list goes on.. and on and one..
Bosnia and Herzegovina is a muslim country.
Good to know they abstained. Maybe this has got to do with the relatively recent massacres they experienced as a result of religion ?
"IP" is not property. It is a temporarily given monopoly, given because of outdated reasons.
And human rights can be read here:
http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html
It does not mention "IP" anywhere, so it is not a human right:)
What planet do you come from ? The EP is one big corrupt mess. And nearly no one knows what they do.
They even create and talk about new laws, out of the public vieuw. ACTA is a nice example. It got leaked @ wikileaks.Check it out for your self.
Intellectual Property is no "Property"
IP is a goverment granted temporary monopoly, that was created in the 19th century, when publishing was expensive, and represseing books was verry cheap.
This was done in order to save the business model and stimulate new productions. Nowadays, online publishing costs nearly nothing. And publishing in general has become dirt cheap in comparison.
Where as "property" is a basic human right protected by law. People confuse "IP" with real property and react acordingly, as if it is a human right, wich it is not.
If we ever wish to change this, and make rational decissions, we should stop useing the words "Intelectual property"
This was already predicted when Biden wrote the following.

And it is only going to get worse...
I really don't understand why the American pirate party supported Obama while i got this link from the international pirate party's mailinglist ages ago.
Maybe some/. people can educate them ?
Giggle ? What you say is really true.
Once this news hits the european websites, there will be " Only in america " all over the page.
Wich is a "standard" reaction/meme on absurd news over here.
But they can trottle it, and that is exactly what they do these days.
It will even make you pass most "ISP Tampering" tests.
And you wont notice it in gameplay, since online gameing does not consume that much traffic:)

The freeRunner comes with a closed source baseband because of legal/licensing issues. In other words: It's /not/ a free phone.

The Dutch Pirate Party provided a mirror for the overloaded wikileaks page. Http://collateralmurder.piratenpartij.nl/
Every self respecting geek that i know, is using microwave ovens for destroying data. It works, and it's dirt cheap.
Actually, you /can/ have it both ways! If only you read what rms wrote....
- Create album. - Set the price @ 100billion. - Let it "leak" onto a culturesharing site. - Wait untill someone stumbles upon it. Profit !
Most people who get punished for breaking the law. Get punished by a judge, not by the RIAA/MPAA or one of their numerous outfits.
Why are astroturfers always posting as a Anonymous coward @ slashdot ? I love the moderator system over here :)
But they are. Check the chamber of commerce records. Just for the record, are you and your mods astroturfers ?

Why is connectivity so expensive in the USA ? - keywords: Time Warner, Artificial scarcity.
Films get leaked every day!

Quick ! We must create a counter resolution that outlaws theocracies! - It is the only solution i can think off.

i DO. Not a single MEP did something against this entirely lobby written document. And this is not the first time this happens.

They are NOT in tune. But it is what they want you to believe, or so it seems. Have you forgotten about IPRED, FRA etc ?
The MAFIA stands for artificial value. Exactly what got us all in this financial crisis...

I'd recommend you to only wear those maple leafs if you are both american and a religious politician. It's america they hate, not americans.

I just screamed "WTF" out loud, while i'm alone. I'm trying to describe a emotion here, since words can't possibly describe how insane this is !
