Global Warming making the climate habitable, a conservative government that says, "hey, we like universal healthcare", and a reasonable perspective on copyright are all things I can support. Captain Copyright, on the other hand...
Regardless of legal impediments, the software (and hardware) industries are making it all a moot point as quickly as is legally feasible.
Seriously...
I remember complaining about American IP laws and being told, "if you don't like it, move somewhere else." The US has already subverted most of Europe, Eastern Asia, and pretty much every other developed country (at least on the books). So where should I move?
No.
But with 0/50 chance in dying, I still wouldn't feel safe riding on that thing. I would still do it.
Hell, with 3/5 chance in dying, I would still ride that ride. Chance of a lifetime. I would think every astronaut feels the same way. They ae picked partly because of their passion for the idea of manned space travel. Ask them how they feel about it and stop giving them your value system.
