I'm not sure i understand what you're point is... That kind of stuff happens all the time now. Banks take over houses because of mortgages, The dealership down the street will take your ride back because you're behind on your payments. Basically somebody requests some sort of repossession notice or permit from the governement. After they're apporved, they hire a private firm of repossessors who scour the country looking for whatever it is that hasnt been paid for. I remember one episode where they took back a plane. The fact of the matter is that third parties are currently in the buisiness of contract enforcement, its just that the laws for applying this to the internet havent been written up yet.
It seems to me that third party contract enforcement is the only way to go. With the internationality of the internet, one single governmental entity isnt going to be able to take care of matters that may arise. Besides the fact that they have more important things to concern themselves with, they would most likely be out of their jurisdiction. On a seperate note, if this whole third party thing does progress, it may be an interesting buisness in get involved in. Either as an investor, or as a "contract enforcer" if you will. heh
Maybe we sould just ask the romulans to solve this. They use singularity driven engine and power source systems, don't they? heh... I'm just glad i could be so holpful
you must be some british liberal sick anti-gun bastard, cause otherwise, I cant find any explination for the BS that you're spouting. Just cause you damn european naturists can't stand the fact that the USA is so secually uptight, it doesn't mean that you have the right to critisize one of out hardest won and dearly loved rights as an american citizen. Sure, we have to deal with people like this sicko sniper, but in the long run, it's worth it to maintain our certian inalienable rights.

which point of view are you taking on this? That they should sell the game, or that they shouldn't sell either.
