However, it only refers to people who "learns about the transmission or storage of information about certain illegal activities or an illegal image".
It depends on what you mean by "learns about". Someone calls up the WIFI operator and says OMG hax0rz are spreading filfth on the LANzz!! Is that "learning about"?
Vague laws like this are designed to be abused by those in power. And so it goes...
The purpose of this law is to provide more legal means for government and corporations to monitor everyone's internet traffic.
Remember, whenever these people say "it's for the children", there is a more insidious motive behind it.
If they just said that they were going to require monitoring everyone's Internet traffic, there would be an uproar. But, if it is to find kiddie porn, well, then hell yeah, 409-2! Same effect. One really has to wonder what percentage of traffic will actually have these offending files. This will require serious scrutiny to find anything. Game, set, match.
Umm, I meant particles, not photons. Duh.
Either way, that's alot of energy. One has to wonder what kind of damage these things do when they pass thru your body.
The energies of these cosmic rays are measure in EeV (exa-electron volts). 1 EeV ~ 0.16J
The most common ones are sitting at around 35 EeV.
35EeV * 0.16J/EeV = 5.6J
By comparison, g=9.8 m/s^2. So the weight of a 1 Kg block is 9.8N. Now to lift an object a height h work=mg*h.
So, h=work/mg. Puting is 5.6J for the work we get h=5.6/9.5=0.57m
So, these photons have enough energy lift a 1 kg block over a half a meter!
He must not like sales of his music either. I'll keep this in mind the next time I find myself looking thru the CD racks (not that I do that any more, just when my 12 year old who I am trying to teach of the evils of the music industry forces me to go to a music store in the mall with her).
As a composer of piano music, I can't wait for these people to try to shut down the release of my music on the Internet this year. I will sue for millions.
Touching the last box makes you a terrorist. The government has that one covered. In fact, that is what this whole thing is all about, not "fighting terrorists".
"Sending a special weapons and tactics unit anywhere is a firefight waiting to happen."
It's what we have when we live in a post-911/tripwire society. Shoot first, ask questions later. The fact that teh swat can be tricked into overkill mode/business as usual like this is quite frightening.

Wow, I'm downloading it now. Can't wait to play with it on my LAN! I can use it to spiez on people at my workz!

You mean like a frog in a pot of water. Bring up to boil slowly, the from won't even notice he is boiling until he is dead...
But I digress...
But the video isn't about Prince. It is about the baby dancing. She could have used anything else to have the same effect.
Man, the record industry is working harder and harder every day to kill their business.
