Dream on. As long as there's an incentive to steal people will continue to do so and will find ways to circumvent any security system you can throw at them. People tear the stick-on magnetic tags off packaging today, they'll tear out RFID tags when they figure out where they are.

A Watchmen film (set in the present day) was in preproduction for god knows how long, but stalled earlier this year. It could still happen, and Moore can't do anything about it unless he buys the rights but I doubt he can afford that, or even would on principle.
It doesn't matter whether they were child porn, beastiality porn or plans to bomb the Whitehouse. The EFF article states that the techie believe that the files may have been illegal and that's what matters. Besides, the point is that the police didn't get a warrant before searching the PC. If they had wanted to search his house they would have required a warrant and the principle is the same.
The first clothing shop to put cameras in the dressing rooms would never survive the sudden, massive drop in sales and PR disaster. It's not going to happen so you don't really need to worry about it.
You didn't actually read that link did you? Read point 3.
Now assuming we restrict ourselves to point 1 only, who decides what constitutes porn and what does not? And what do you do with sites than are not porn sites, but do contain some material that would be considered pornorgraphic? Somethingawful.com or rotten.com for example. Or even Amazon (if Amazon don't sell sexually explicit material replace with some online bookstore that does, I can't be bothered checking)

Unless there's more than one Tesco in Edinburgh now I think I know exactly which store you mean. As long as you avoid 5 to 8 o'clock and lunch times on weekdays you shouldn't have to queue for more than a couple of minutes.

Well he said "I can't write a P2P application because someone might swap music" but he can write a P2P app if he wants. It's not (yet) illegal in the UK, or the US.
Also, I haven't the time to check, but I seriously doubt that anywhere near the majority of cars sold today kill someone in their lifetime, so saying "a 200mph car that will probably kill someone" is wrong; it probably won't.

If the *AAs are B then they are the ones distributing the files that they own the copyight on. Unless the MPAA distribute music and the RIAA movies then swap lists of IPs then I don't see how it could be considered infringement.
Now if C was an *AA then it becomes muddier. By passing a file 'owned' by the *AA from B to A it could be argued that the *AA have implicitly given permission for the copy to be created. Or not.
there's also the theory that Ben knew, but wasn't just going to come out and say "oh! these droids were around when your father turned to the dark side and i caused him to become hideously scarred and turn into darth vader!"
He was already Vader before the lava fight. Pay attention.

Basic functionality should not be implemented as extensions. Firefox will become a mess with that attitude.
So what you're saying is that you're not capable of finishing even The Da Vinci Code or the Harry Potter books?
Can you in fact tie your own shoelaces?

V for Vendetta was written by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. The Wachowski siblings adapted it for the screen.
You know what, America is crazy.

Hang on, are you saying that there exist stores with cameras in the dressing rooms? And some of them don't even have notice of this?

Equal oppertunity laws perhaps.
Why don't you read the article and find out?

Really? Well I'm glad you've settled that debate. Publish your research that prooves this quickly and you'll be a millionaire.
1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 1? That's certainly an interesting way of counting you've got there.

Why must it be all or nothing? Allow the cookies that you find useful, disallow the ones that you don't.
