Now all the terrorist will be purchasing Celine Dion, On ne Change Pas in order to get root kits to hide their terrorism files. G. W. Bush should be on the lookout for this. Anyone with a Sony Root kit on their system is a potential terrorist.

They also made them taste so nasty nobody wants them. Good idea, poor implementation.
frovingslosh has a good point. I probably has been very effective for me since I am very careful about giving out my personal information. Anything that creates a "relationship" with a business or documents that give them permission to have 3rd parties contact me would blow it.
So I avoid: - Prize give away forms - Pretty much any freebee that requests name, number &/or address - I make sure when my banks or credit companies send out requests to share my information to 3rd parties, I clearly reply back with a firm NO.
It's kind of like e-mail privacy, only since it's much easier to track the b@stards down, they really do have to prove a prior business relationship or consent given to be called.
Of course the voluntary Do Not Call list that the telemarketer association had before hand cut down calls to about 20 a year. But that one took more effort to get on.
Right now, the only calls I get are from politicians & non-profits (which are exempt). There have been a couple of calls from non-listed numbers trying to make sales. But since I put in such an effort to hunt them down, they haven't called back. And a couple of scam artists claiming to raise money for the police fund.
Of course with new technologies such as VOIP I expect things to change. With a lower price for over seas calls it's bound to get as bad as spam.

They want to lock in all future life into a proprietary format. With current DNA being patented our only hope left is to create our own truly open source life form.
No word yet on which format Microsoft and Sony intend to back. In related news, Bush is working heavily with Monsanto to ensure that the DMCA is found to be applicable to current life forms. Scientists caught attempting to reverse engineer life should expect to be raided by the FBI by the end of year.
The $5 peerbux charge sounds crappy. It increases the ability (demand) of people to obtain movies but does not increase the pool of available/wanted movies.
Before it was the cost. Now the question is, are they going to provide their current browser more or less as is, and then charge for the "killer" features down the road when I could very well have continued using Firefox comfortably with very little switch over?
I usually pass over a fair number of "free" offers due to future strings attached. What is Opera's money making angle off of this now?
I have had some of the same trouble. My best free option to date is to get a blogger.com account.

I hear the trojan witter is also using an unusual distribution method. Ricky Martin CDs.

I wouldn't smile either if my name was Molly Beavers.
OK. I missed the joke. Is that a reference to an approach to cold fusion?
