If you have MP3s on your PC, fear! Jackbooted stormtroopers from Herr Ascroft's Ministry of Justice may come to your door. Here is actual footage of a raid!
The FBI, or some other police agency will probably arrest someone they claim is a virus writer, and say that perpetrator has been dealt with, but don't be fooled. This is big brother, not some kid, or an unsociable grown man living in his mother's basement. Read More.
A solid business plan indeed! Sell off Easy CD Creator, which is popular and profitable to concentrate on new Napster, which is going over like new Coke. Here's a little something for whoever came up with that idea.
We sang it this way on the playground...
This land is my land. This land ain't your land.
This land was made for only me.
I got a shot gun, and you ain't got one.
If you don't get off, I'll blow your head off.
This land is my land. This land ain't your land
This land is private property.
Are there any recordings of tranquil music so old that they are in the public domain? If so, play those, and tell The Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada that the world's smallest violin is playing for them.
The Uncoveror saw this coming: 2004 Will Be 1984 Through Use of Webcams. If there are terrorists in Boston, they might discover where these cameras are, and use "girls gone wild" to distract the watchers. I bet Boston didn't think of that.
Nice indeed! What these will really be is Big Brother's floating eyes in the sky. Read more. You can see black helicopters, but white blimps can camouflage themselves against the clouds.
While no one will likely bash this law claiming a right to videotape in theatres, I will say that this law is way too draconian. Three years in prison if it's not for profit, and five if it is when nothing tangible has been taken? Fines would be more appropriate. If they are going to be draconian, why not just sentance camcorder "pirates" to death? What are those senators smoking?
And you didn't even mention the First Amendment. Copyright, by locking up ideas as property; saying that once they are expressed, they can't be re-expressed without formal permission and the payment of fees; is a form of censorship. That isn't freedom of speech or freedom of the press, is it?
Some have suggested that the FCC should be abolished because the market can regulate itself. They are smoking crack. Deregulation gave us the horrible consolidation that has six or seven companies owning all media. How many radio stations in your market are owned by Clear Channel?
The real problem is the FCC has become completely irrelevant. All current commissioners need to be replaced. You can't regulate and industry, and let it wine and dine you at the same time. That's a conflict of interest.
As long as a piece of paper is among the hoops we have to jump through in life, buying that peice of paper from a diploma mill is going to be common. If someone is doing their job well, then where they got their paper credentials should not matter.
It is no wonder Lucent is mimicking IBM, The company that placed a mole inside their boardroom, and HP's, nearly destoying both, is too successful not to have some things worth immitating.
Repealing prohibition took away organized crime's biggest market, and nearly eliminated organized crime by making it unprofitable. If the mob really is now "pirating", then aboslishing copyright, a form of censorship that has ceased to serve its purpose, would deprive them of that market.
True. Any new medium that the recording industry doesn't control will be attacked. It is all about power and control. They will have less money to hire lawyers with though if we don't buy CDs.
Wireless transmission of energy was Nikola Tesla's dream, and he pulled it off at short distances. Too bad he died in 1943, and can't post to this thread.
If he had found funding and support, we might only have to put up energy antennas to catch electricity, but then the power company couldn't send us a bill each month. That's why he never found enough funding his reasearch, and people called him crazy.

If these baboons were put in a zoo, would they go bezerk if a curious kid threw a rock? Normal baboons do. Read more.

It wouldn't be Mickey threatening you. He's just a prisoner of Eisner. He is the guy who wants to make everything pay-per-play.
The V-chip is always on, and has nothing to do with protecting kids from violence. It's not just in Soviet Russia that TV watches you! Read more.

They do what ever they are bribed to do. They are, to paraphrase Hunter S. Thompson, a parliament of whores.

So the man behind the man vs machine chess hoax has been apprehended! Will he talk?

British Petroleum or British Parliament? They are really the same thing.
Now that the Chinese won't go to the moon, Bush doesn't have to worry about red China controlling all the green cheese, but he probably still wants some.
You will really feel like crying if we have hit peak oil. Whatever you do, don't even mention that concept to SUV nuts.
