Good one.
Option A is very likely to happen to a great many people, I'd wager a deal of people posting here have been in some car accident or other.
Option B is an extremist depiction of the government. A more realistic Option B would be 'To monitor whether you go to any Al Franken book signings'.
To the current administration, any opposing political views are wrong and support the terrorists.
Online gaming is a fad cavorted by execs jacking off over their latest ONLINE IS GOOD ad campaigns. Online games were perfected on the PC about 5 years ago, Way to re-invent the wheel.
Who would have thought you'd take it so literally. Obviously this isn't going to hurt the real criminals, If people find out they can make it rich by turning in people writing 'viruses', rest assured no real virus writers will be caught.
This isn't like a soccer mom trying to cash in on frivuolous lawsuit #235 of the week, this is an actual university, and the entire board of directors must have legitimate concern to sue.
The poor sap who gets a bill from his ISP at the end of month, discovering the latest MS vulnerability left his machine to send off 150,000 spam emails.
How exactly would this scheme work? Would you need verification of every email you send? What if the above scenario occurs and no verification is in place?
Uhh, This is the sequel to the original movement in which Lexmark claimed 3rd party vendors were violating the DMCA to refill their cartridges. I say you should STFU.
Peter Moore used to work for Nintendo of America in a pretty high position. During the course of a week where he quit to work for Microsoft his comments varied between
'Nintendo is in a firm position to claim back the market, yada yada yada'
To
'Microsoft is in a firm position to claim the market, yada yada yada'
The insight to the industry this guy gives is directly relevant to who he is working for.
So you won't see a Linux UT2005 client, well, very few people use that particular client, so I'm sure it won't effect sales too much.
But what about the server? As it stands, Linux runs 85% of UT2003 servers. Not having a linux server will diminish the product many times more than not having a linux client.

You're absolutely correct, although under King Bush III, the DMCA is the least of your troubles.
And I just registered freedvdjon.com ! :(
Who would have thought the courts would rule correctly?
Wow! A free motorboat!
The 25 millionth song was 'Let it snow' by Sinatra.
This should be metamodded unfair.
Most people realized the sheer idiocy in being attracted to a 2000 polygon.
Videogame Journalism is going great guns when one of, if not the most profitable gaming companies can be identified as 'dying'.
There are 3 main markets (PC, Console, Handhelds) for videogames, and Nintendo is the only company who currently dominates any one of them.
File this one in the ever-growing anti-Nintendo wing of gaming journalism.
Here I thought Mobile Phones couldn't get anymore annoying.
The government is powerless to help you, they are not powerless to punish you.
As if NASA needs any more funding problems, $699 goes a long way for monkey-food in space.
Perhaps a quick glance at SPR.org will enlighten you as to what some people who are raped in prison go in for.

Didn't The Borg try to turn the Enterprise crew against one another?

I'm sure Mr. Yarro would love to see Linux survice, just as much as Microsoft would have loved to see Netscape survive.
And what about Mozilla? Opera? K-Meleon? Safari?
Is it clear just how much this patent ruling will affect the internet as we know it?
Uhh, This is the sequel to the original movement in which Lexmark claimed 3rd party vendors were violating the DMCA to refill their cartridges. I say you should STFU.
Another victory for the DMCA, Gimme a hell yeah!
Ah, you're quite right. I stand corrected. Was that Peter McDougal that went to MS, or was it another Moore?

You're quite right, That article is nothing but anti-videogame propaganda.
