They opened it a few times, although I wish I had been in it beforehand because of how great aforementioned $secretsite is.
Also, the ratios of people that use said site (whose name has not been mentioned, hahaha) are quite impressive. I'm at around 3.0 and plenty of people are in the 20.0 and above (and we're talking PB's of data as opposed to my TB's). They definitely don't carry everything, though.
You can't afford $0? $0 bankrupted you? Mod funny but informative, certainly not.
That's the actual value, in contrast to their settlement letters.
I've been wondering if they'd ever get brazen enough to send me one but then I remembered that private trackers + peerblock generally = you'll never see a letter in your lifetime.
You know what things are called "gray businesses"?
Anything the US doesn't like.
You know what things can be considered gray businesses? Legal businesses, including ones that operate in the united states.
Do you know what the collateral damage of such is? The worst damage you can do via the legal system is to add uncertainty as to "who is a gray business?"
Yes, they are. Why do you suppose copyright isn't forever? Eventually society is entitled to everything. It's just that people are selfish *and* idiotic and think that hoarding is somehow better. (cue arguments about "Steaaaling!" etc etc).
Not one piece of music wasn't influenced by something prior - hardly even a 'creative' work. Just a remix/derivative.
Yep, this actually highlights some really supreme losses to society by virtue of the Jackson estate hoarding the shit out of Michael's music and Sony too.
Were it not for this we'd see Jackson remixes for the next 100 years if Sony had their way. Good on the hackers to get that stuff out there instead into society where *society* can benefit.
When you rely on a 3rd party for cloud storage and that 3rd party has a basically nonexistent SLA for an under 30 day outage, it becomes your own fault for making a horrible business decision.
when you take a 3rd party cloud storage solution and implement it yourself for your enterprise, guess what? it works. And if there's issues, you know who's to blame. https://spideroak.com/diy/ - this is one example of but many.
What are you talking about? Two years ago phones ran like absolute pieces of crap. Even one year ago, for the most part. There was constant stuttering, things weren't that smooth, etc. While apple's UI was smooth, actually running things at first? Not so much. Funny how people can't remember two years ago well.
Only since december or thereabouts have phones actually been getting towards powerful enough to handle everything smoothly.
Four processors on a smartphone is fairly trivial in cost, so no it doesn't include a significantly larger price point. At the end of the day we're talking a $12 chip versus a $25 chip (maximum) for example. Don't think fudsters wouldn't hype that as "100% more expensive processor!" though.
only for companies dumb enough to make such a short term decision.
See, things like health care are long term decisions involved with making your business viable. Literally spending the 2 cents a ton in healthcare costs saves them probably 200k per employee in the long run (including lawsuits, health claims, etc).
4. I don’t want advertising next to my video, I don’t like it.
YouTube provides a free video sharing service for hundreds of millions of users. The way that YouTube generates revenue to pay for the service is via advertising on pages where content has been identied. Supporting the Content ID system helps keep YouTube free for everyone and it’s a small price to pay
Basically "don't pay attention to the millions were making off you - it keeps youtube free and it's a small price to pay!" aka don't pay attention to the fact that youtube was free before advertising as well, and that it's not a small price to pay - inconvenience makes things not worth watching.
No, you're exactly right - they have it backwards.
Now the lone driver at night is at serious risk,a nd the people during traffic which already are experiencing light pollution continue to do so. At the same time, they save money!
profit! except not in the long term due to increased crash risk.
They're flagging to the community "we want to go out of business"
They're basically saying "uploaders get full speed, free users do not". Which basically means: "help us grow our network with your efforts, but dont' ask us to do anything to actually help you."
I hope it makes sense and is well done. I guess the sign of it becoming real is when google applauds it at the same time as apple/microsoft sue Mozilla. So, 6 months? Again, how it is designed is going to be important. Anyone can clone the whole smartphone layout as it exists but they're going to need to do something *different* for it to be worthwhile.
I should also point out that apple and google are considered competition, but Microsoft is not (as microsoft is not relevant in the smartphone market). Quite a telling point.
Really, you're going to try to quote a case that was twisted so far as to basically not apply in today's society, and overturned in a variety of fashions?
While the rationale was completely off by the judge, the result is accurate:
5th amendment needs to apply to encryption keys as you indicated - there needs to be a debate on the how/where as applicable, but judges still don't understand this. Give it another 10 years.
The reason they didn't present it to a jury is because the government doesn't like cases documented that aren't easily stacked in their favor. MAFIAA are not the only folks to use that trick. Cmon Hatta, you seem to be a pretty smart legal eagle, you already know this.
Show one country, worldwide, that actually declared *downloading* to be actually declared illegal. I don't ask you this from a "prove a negative" difficulty, I mean this to highlight that copyright infringement doesn't involve downloading or require it. Even the attempts of Hadopi, of which zero cases have actually been finalized (and tons have been dropped) can't even associate this one and those don't even involve going to trial.
Nice try though! Go back to your delusional RIAA/MAFIAA hole.
Whether people like it or not, that is the future. People may have created artificial value for a document, but it doesn't mean that you can truly control it the second it's available on the internet in any form.

It also helps to show them that the problem isn't your connection and hopefully shows you that you aren't the one who can fix it, for that matter.

Talk about greed vs culture.
If he was arrested for disobeying a dispersal order, then that's what he would have been charged for.
Was it? hint: no.
What part of the explicit consent wasn't there?
You already signed up for the services meaning you already provided explicit consent.
Really?
You can use other browsers. It's not simply "use stock browser or nothing".
Google already enforces (not simply advertises) brute honesty in app installs as well.
You can be logged into any google login you want, and access the other one through another mail program if that's all it's for.
Google does offer an opt out function, but what is exactly the refund for free?

That's what bankruptcy (restructure) is for.
If you have to cut out a shitload of people and start fresh, then that's what it takes.
Or they can give up and cut their losses.
comedy answer. needs modding upwards. Bravo :)
I assumed they meant you must be using it every day or whatnot, not just "have one in your car for your own sake."
So roughly an extra $1500 to have a car for 5 years?
wow.
I know france isn't the US and they write their own laws, but isn't this basically "Guilty until proven innocent"?

you'll still get sued for your thoughts, because they feel that they own them. derivative works, etc.
