Requiring DRM by law for all statutory licensed work is massive overkill.
Considering the laws that make it all possible, it's not really. This is the only way it can go. There is no other until ALL IP law is abolished.
Sure am glad the dems are in charge now, aren't you? Yep, they're going to make a world of difference. I pity the poor suckers who actually believe that.
I think the sing goes: Meet the new boss Same as the old boss...
Let's say you're sitting in car, plane, train, whatever. Without having seen the outside of the vehicle, describe to me what exterior color it is, its shape, what it's made of, the interior of the fuel tank, engine, etc. Now isn't describing the universe a bit similar?
I'm sorry, what? Are you saying we should censor the net? I'm interested to see how you can do that without provoking me into finding and distributing a workaround.
Interesting comparison there, internet = pair of scissors. Nonsensical, but interesting.
...undeclared wars of aggression with no real point...
They have very real point. To keep a wartime economy afloat. The simple fact is, as long as you can keep it offshore, war is good business. These wars have no resolution. They're not supposed to. They are there for their own sake, to be perpetuated as long as possible. These people don't measure the war by counting the victories. They measure it by how long it lasts, how much profit it generates. We count the bodies. They count the money. We shouldn't try to apply morality where there is none. That only applies to the peons so they willingly give up half their paycheck and their children to this charade with no complaints.
The concept of a "just war" ended with WWII and marked the beginning of the war based economy that the US lives under today. Eisenhower made a very eloquent speech on the matter, but as we can see, it fell on deaf ears. As for many previous wars being justified, a closer look at the the events (as they become declassified, etc) leading up to said war will reveal that there was less "justification" than previously thought.
It looks like you really swallowed the hook, line,and sinker. And using the word liberal the way you do shows what a media(FOX) junkie you are. We will not leave Iraq until the government is solidly pro American and will protect its interests above their own. Nothing liberal or conservative about it. It's business. You can believe the moral mambvy-pamby fluff all you want. That's something for the peons to believe. Your friends in the administration don't operate that way.
We now return you to "Scraming Ninnies" with Bill O'Reilly.
One nice, big, fat, juicy target. It'll be nice not to have to break into all these different, incompatable databases all the time. Yep, should save a lot of work for the crooks when they're stealing laptops. Now they'll need only one. Very convenient indeed.

that this is the only direction copyright (and all other IP law) can take you. With its original intent being to restrict access to mass media technologies (MMTs), it has to to take more draconian measures against that technology as it becomes cheaper and easier for the general public to use. There can be no other way . This is its purpose in life, and always has been, despite the spin being drilled into your head about the "advancement of the arts and sciences". It's a load of bull.
The article summary is bad. First, it is quite amazing how we can get an accurate review about a product that doesn't even exist, at least not in any real sense.
Accuracy is not the intention. These are ads, not news.
What is with Americans that they need a friggin' court to deal with each and every trivial, minor and major event they don't like??
Maybe because ambulance chasing, personal injury lawyers can advertise on the TV now. And they play it off as "get rich quick". It's a form of legalized gambling with little to lose for the plaintiff. And unfortunately, "loser pays" over extends itself into legitimate cases. Where its real intent is to protect large companies from owners of property that they damage with contamination, etc.

We have set up a government, elected by thier own people...
Yes only after being approved by our people. You don't think we would let just anybody win, do you? Their election was a thinly disguised fraud.
Now, here is why they are insurgents. We achived our goal of outing the dictator and gave Iraq back to it's people.
??? You actually believe that? The only "goal" we have demonstrated is that of perpetual war. Probably to keep the (American) economy going.
Maybe I'm taking you too seriously.
make lots of decoys. Hey it works with ducks.
and make the world "safe for democracy".
Oh, about four pounds.
The UK is half "Europe" and half "America Jr."
No. The US is the Original European Union. What they are doing in the old country is emulation.

You can't say "crap" on the internet.

The marketing might say otherwise, but there's a limit to how much they can bend reality.
Maybe some consultations with the RIAA might help them in that department. They didn't just bend it, they broke it in two.

Oh boy! Another Pinto!

It's what you get when "law creates crime".

Violence has to be acceptable if you want to build a winning army.
