"The company said the provisions would force Microsoft to redesign its operating system and open up its source code. What's more, the company said the proposal may force employees out the door because Microsoft workers, may of whom are engineers accustomed to precision in the ascertainment of objectively verifiable facts, wouldn't be able to understand the new rules."
I can't believe the blatant factual errors in this movie. For example: anyone with the slightest knowledge of biology realizes that DNA doesn't contain chromosomes. What the DNA strand was missing were AMINO ACIDS. Chromosomes are composed of DNA, not the other way around.
Here in Seattle, we (the taxpayers) are paying for a $500M baseball stadium that was VOTED DOWN in the first place. Meanwhile, our public school teachers had to go on strike for a measly 5% salary raise, which (if I remember correctly) they did not get. If state and local goverments had their priorities straight in the first place, nobody would even be talking about a ludicrous and unconstitutional internet tax.
Plead the 5th? What the heck is that supposed to mean? And why does he have to use a team of editors anyway? Isn't he supposed to be a regular person like everyone else? I detect bullshit!
I think I read this somewhere on ZDNet, of all places, and it sounded like a really good idea. I'm not that familiar with the techical aspects of web domains, but what about adding a few new domain suffixes, like.xxx or.adu? I'm sure the porn site operators wouldn't mind, and it would certainly make filtering easier for paranoid parents and scholl administrators who are too busy to actually supervise the fragile little minds of "the children".

I think a better question is: How do Dr. Dre's recordings qualify as "intellectual" property? :)

MTV plays music videos? When?
That's from Jewel's book of poetry, isn't it?
Try The Cyberiad, by Stanislaw Lem, from 1967.
A difficult read? Neuromancer? Are you sure we're talking about the same book?

Ok, ok. I know what the 5th amendment is. I just wondered why he felt he had to invoke it. But thanks.
