That would make the music and record industries very happy. And that is a part of their grand plan. To stop this dam tech shit that's eating into their profits and taking their control.
I'll say to you the same as I say to big media. - The one sure fire way to not have your shit taken by others is not to make it public.. Now put you big stick away..
A while back I was looking through some source code for a linux device driver, one part said "This is an ugly hack. I must have been on crack. Need to fix this soon"
"and the greatest advances of the 21st century won't be in science or technology, but in expanding the concept of what it means to be human. That, good sir, is your fight. You are not alone."
You Sir are on the right track. The desire of humans to have free and unfettered access to information and ideas and share them are a part of our nature. I see this as a core concept of a more individual human oriented - perhaps even a utopian society. The internet is the spark that has started us in this direction. It is the first real platform for thees sort of human advancements. It is this reason why the internet , as a whole, scares so many in power. They see this "spark" too and need to destroy it. They need to control everything and everyone for the the bottom line - profit and power. So our government(s) gives out monopolies (copyrights and patents) on that which should be as free as the air we breathe - information and ideas. But the genie is out of the bottle and people are starting to (hopefully) get a good whiff of the shit that's being shoveled on us , and how bad it stinks...
No you can't. My friend got into PC's about 15 years ago. When he need's to do something that requires thought, he calls me. He calls me the other day to show him how to burn a CD. - for the 1,000th time. I said I was busy at the time but it's easy," you can figure it out". Asked him the next day, he said he could not figure it out. (Shortcut to burning software is on his desktop) His solution to the problem was --- Wait for it --- Just not to burn CD's. I told him that was a good idea, if you can't figure it out by now just put your head in the sand and give up.... In fact you can give me your PC.
Yes but the Beiber's of the world are grown by the record labels, for the record labels, instead of a garage band that moves up through the scene because they are good. So no, Beiber and the likes need the labels because no talent needs a lot of help and pimping to be be successful.
I did the same thing, but it did not work, until I swapped the rom chips (firmware and servo data?) from the old to the new board, then it worked fine. This was a long time ago however.
You GEEKS WITH WIRES think you have rights? HAHAHA! Haven't you geeks caused enough trouble already, messing with the profits of our mega corps! Things like sharing and free speech - It's all your fault you brought thees misguided concepts to the masses! This will stop and we will choke you with your own WIRES!
"How many normal honest people actually LIKE being monitored on things like Skype and Facebook, and would they prefer to be monitored if given a choice?"
You would be surprised... I know a few.

A dedicated cooling system for server rooms. Last place I worked it got 90 - 100 in the server room because it had no zone of it's own.

My apologies,
You girl, are on the right track.
An awareness of self. Your pets don't have that...
I am not so convinced of that..
I have 4 cats and they are all individual little people with different personalities. :)

Well it does not make money or help the rich get richer, in fact it costs money. I say shut it down!
Silly geeks with telescopes....
Thats the one!
There was a star trek episode where this klingon could inject himself with encoded top secret files. I see reality is catching up with sci-fi
Relaying denied..
This is why I still run my own mail server.

Not demise, but the beginning of the end. Sell you shares now!
