That is not socialism, it's incompetence. Making sure that work paid for (in this case rolling out telecoms infrastructure) is done properly is basic management and should be part of every system of government.
With real property I can pay to have it shipped from another country. I can even do this with semi-real property (half real property, half IP) like DVDs and books. If the seller can ship IP thru the mail why cant they ship it thru the tubes?
I'm not disagreeing with taxes but I thought I'd point out that the American founding fathers are not automatically right about everything. Isn't using "the American founding fathers said $X" as a reason for $X a bit lazy.

I love the way they have swallowed the digg/torrentfreak bullshit of calling it 'file sharing' rather than theft or piracy.
What next? is care jacking just 'car sharing'?
The term filesharing covers sharing of any file, not just slightly dodgy files.
What a joke. this site is practically an off-shoot of torrentfrek now. Its laughable to read this at the bottom:
If they succeed in this, the only thing that will happen is that some of my news portals will have less actual content and more blogging/editorials/crap (like fashion and celeb news).
blogging, editorials and crap are about the only things worth reading on most news sites
They failed to install two very important bits of software. One of these bit of software is available completely free with full source code so it could be built for the cell architecture. The other shouldn't be too difficult to negotiate. How is it not their fault?
I'm pretty sure we touched on Greeks, Romans, Vikings and Henry VIII when I was in primary school but it was mostly just interesting stories. Stuff like the greek myths and Henry's love life.

Are you naive enough to think Britney Spears performed the music with her name on it.
WTF is that case about? It looks like "they figured out CSS, we want money" but it cant be that simple, can it?
It seems to me that copyright refers to the exact opposite of the right to copy. It is the "right" not to have copies made.
If copyright meant the right to copy I would support it
If you want streaming instead of torrents Surf the Channel works well. It's a collection of links to video sites that actually work.

Let's see. Categories on amazon.co.uk under Music, DVD & Games:
Nope, it's not there.
The distribution deals are already being got around. Just not by the side of the internet that likes to be legal.
No not really. Anyone that does anything to piss a lawyer off is automatically right.
They could always import it. They'd need to be careful not to get taxed on it but apart from that importing should be ok.
Why don't we all stop bitching about it on slashdot and try bitching about it to one of these offices instead?
Well isn't something alike in the bible too ?
Haven't read much of the Bible (I stopped after the most boring murder I have ever read) but how would this make the Qur'an any better?

It's pretty hard to read

Isn't piracy an act of war?

I thought the /. hippies thought copyright was teh evil?
Copyright might be teh evil but it is the kind of teh evil that could pay a lot of lawyers at slashdot's expense.
"No, it wasn't bad, a massacre, or sick...It was war."
So it was bad and sick. I agree that massacre might be a bit harsh.

The flag is a slight improvement. It doesn't make speeches or give orders.
WTF is up with the US and communism? Is there an actual problem with it or did you guys just need an enemy in the 50s?

I've just scanned the article and I cannot see a link to the actual published paper (or even the name of the journal). Anyone have a link?
I'd put a couple of Manowar pictures on there just to be sure.
No. And you sound like you shouldn't.
