How does this have to article have to do with DRM? It mentions nothing about encoding of video signal just displaying it. TV still needs to get signal from some source(DVI or component inputs). So how exactly would DRM work, scramble the image on the display so you can't video tape it? DRM has to be farther up in the chain aka sattelite reciever,cable reciever, dvd. And all these output component or dvi.
I always thought regions were about price fixing, if you notice how the regions are setup, richer countries are lump together with poorer country in their own regions. That way movie industry could sell dvds for higher prices to the richer countries and then sell them at lower prices to lower countries without worrying about the dvds getting shipped from country to country.
What about the cops in the Rodney King case? First aquitted by state government then retried under federal government for the exact same act and found guilty?
I live in LA and I have wifi access point with its default settings. If you can reach it you can reach, i don't care. Hell I can't even get signal in my back yard. I personally don't care if anyone uses my wifi, whats the worse they can do? Browse the internet anonymously(my wired machines sit behind a firewall) they could do this at the library. Even at jury duty, they had ethernet ports you could plug into while waiting to be called in for a trial.
The Number portability fees are big scams, carrier allowed to choose the fee based on how much the system cost them. This also includes marketing to stop people from switching or to get new customers. Some carriers are not charging while others are charging $2+. Biggest part of the scam is that these fees aren't mentioned in the price of the product when you buy it. So when you comparing two plans at the same price from difference carriers, it won't actually be those prices.
Wow that was one of the most biased FAQs, I've ever read. TC has very little to do with DRM. DRM for computers is worthless and everyone knows it, video still has to be output to either analog monitor output or digital to the DVI output, same goes with audio, analog or digital outputs. What TC will do for the enterprise is increase security. I can now have my webservers only run signed applications with my companies signature. I don't have to worry about someone running a hack version of my application, I don't have to worry about viruses and this protection goes down to the chip level. Every bios maker thats aggreed to produce these chips are allowing people to turn it off. If you don't want it, leave the setting off. But if i was IT manager I would make sure it is on, I don't want my employees running unsigned software. Thats a big liability.
DRM is never going be as extreme as FAQ says, consumers won't take it. Look at DIVX. And it also won't work. I remember when disney would only release movies on DIVX and said they would not release movies DVDs. Look what happened. Consumer choice prevails. Only time i would start worrying is when the industries start putting DRM chips into speakers and monitors, and so far i have not seen any of that happening.
VOIP is that just that Voice over IP, be it Sip or H323 or any thing else. So now I should pay money because I play Counterstrike and use voice enabled feature to talk to my teammates? Or Xbox live users? Or using video conferencing over IM? Or any of the web conferencing products?
Better yet, why should I be double taxed. I already pay taxes on my telephone line, now you want me to be double taxed because I'm using VOIP too?
VOIP is only part of the future, SIP which can specify many different types of communication will be the future. People keep thinking our phones are going to be used for voice only, take a look at cell phones. Its going to be text messages(sms), video conferencing, picture messageing(mms) and much more. I guess we could kill it now by over regulating it since change is bad.
Thats because Microsoft's past record is to ignore people who have contacted them privately regarding security issues, or take legal action against them.
Please post URLs to where microsoft has sued someone for finding an exploit? I've never heard about. People post expoits everyday on bugtraq, last time i heard they never been sued to by microsoft.
Linux is almost double that of the MS solutions or solaris solutions when you compare price per QphH. Anyway this for datawarehousing, real test is the C which is relational database tests.
So lets say I do contract work on side, does that mean my employer owns the source code I did on side? This would also mean I couldn't do part time work or consulting or any other work thats related software.
Any attempt at a unified sales tax for the internet will get struck down in court. The constitution bans any taxes or levies on products that are imported from other states.
2. That Site Finder pages are larger than ordinary error messages and therefore slower and more costly to transmit.
"Cannot find server or DNS Error" is not a page that a server sends back since there is no server in the loop. Its clientside generated page.
Umm, they aren't providing service. Doesn't matter what the terms of service are. They aren't providing service and you can get out of the contract. If you have any problems file a report with your public utility commission. I broke my ATTWS contract last year and ATT agreed to wave the termination fee. But I didn't like that deal since it took me 1 month of nagging to get it, so I filed report with the PUC. I had some Attws on the phone after a month asking me what it would take for me to change status of PUC iccident to reseloved. I manged to get some extra money out of the deal since ATTWS service did effect my business.

Actually it just notifies the "Auto injury" lawyers.

Seriously, what about the porn industry. Kazaa, usenet, gnutellla etc all have pirated porn. Yet they seem to stay in business even without levies.

If 3rd world countries won't respect copyrights, who says they are going to respect the GPL which itself is a copyright.

What about IBM,Motorolla? Also ram manufactors are looking for small micron size. Not to mention Graphics processors guys like NVIDIA or ATI.
Did you even read the specs on the box? Umm Suse linux license was $10k.

Make sure you call from a payphone so you add 0.20 connection charge automatically.
Problem is their VCs want their money back plus profit, and the quickest way is to go public.
