I wonder what was on the disks. I imagine the FBI could have gotten ip logs, password lists, email lists archives...there's a heap of things that could have been on there that points to names and addresses of people who the state would like to harrass..
We all know that the current world order is tending towards fascism, this incident is just another step along that path.
Slighty offtopic question, but how much plutonium/uranium etc is there on earth? Is it sustainable to become dependent on this type of fuel?
And of course, where is it all? Do we have to demolish pristine wilderness to get it?
An even more interesting questions is why our schools aren't adequately funded...
Maybe because most politicians are owned by corporates. And they only want the upper classes to get good education through private schools - therefore cut funding to public education.
oh, and maybe if so much money wasn't spent on the military and prison systems, there would be plenty left for schools (and hospitals).

Also, I wonder how close corps like the RIAA really are with the FBI, CIA etc. I wouldn't be surprised if favours are done...

What has Paul McCartney signing goodnight to his kids got to do with the John Lennon files?
...ahh, that was Ringo singing.
Left wind and right wing can be as bad as each other. The real key is whether they are authoritarian or libertarian.
Fundamentalist anything is bad. I don't care what these people beleive, just so long as they don't force me to do anything.

"Watch now or up to 30 days later" while describing the benifits of their service.
Benifit? how is that a benifit? Sounds like an impediment if you ask me.

We have to deal with these things if we want to overcome the patent issue.
