That's wonderful of you. You're not a decent enough person to help someone at work you know personally, but you're willing to stand up and defend the hours of labor you gave "as a gift for all the world". Pompous ass.

This is simply not true, not enforcing a trademark or copyright in no way lessens the rights possessed by the holder. If that were true, then a copyright holder would bear the personal responsibility to find all violations in existence and an infringment that is not high-profile (as opposed to skins for the current best-selling game of all time, for example) could go unnoticed by the holder indefinitly. Does that sound anything like the copyright law, we all know from discussions here? Think, people.
An excellent move in the right direction, I'm waiting now with baited breath for them to mandate keeping audio recordings of all spkoen exchanges for three years.
You have to love this kind of quality journalism, folks: "Ravaged by piracy, movie studios and recording labels have...", the media has been describing the issue of file-sharing like this since Napster blew up, but this is the strongest adjective I've yet seen.
That the defense tried to use the fact that he modified his car for speed as an argument against a recording system that would likely have assumed values that would make the 114MPH figure inaccurately SLOW? And even if the system was wrong, it's unbelievable that a lawyer would even consider mentioning that the fool disabled his speed-limiting software in a case like this one.
