Keep an eye out for mistakes attacking pod-casters and CC music sites.
Let's not forget websites that host fanfiction, even when they also host original works.
@ Lurker Keith: What you say about the Internet quietly being upgraded with no noticeable 'shift' is true, but there is still a big difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0, which is that the former treated everyone without a website as a passive consumer, whereas the latter lets those who want to be passive consumers to be so, while allowing those who want to be active consumers another outlet for their creativity. That's my basic understanding, anyway.
What do you mean, an African or European swallow?
They're the same damn bird! It's the European swallow because that's where it hatches, but it migrates to Africa for the winter. *facepalms*
On June 13, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that five patent claims covering isolated naturally occurring DNA were not patent-eligible, thereby reducing the overall patent estate to 24 patents and 515 patent claims.
Because of the above statement, I'm wondering if some of the judges read my story about gene patenting on AO3. Or maybe they just read Next by Michael Crichton.
The consensus seems to me to be that Cablevision was wrong. Perhaps you can point me to scholars who say otherwise?
Perhaps you can point us to the scholars who you claim hold the view that the Cablevision decision was a bad one?
Anyone with a shred of intelligence would realize that unregistered comments with a link would be more likely to be caught in the spam filter.
Actually, that's incorrect. Any comments with links get caught up in the spam filter. I should know since I've wound up having my comments moderated for a while after leaving comments with links in them while I'm signed in.
I just can't imagine someone being serious if they say suggest hold this paper cup (which offers no thermal protection and is coated with wax as the only means of making it able to hold liquid) while I pour a hot beverage into it for you.
I guess you've never seen a Starbucks (Starbuccaneers) cup.
Japanese copyright law is so hypocritical. It's one of the strictest in the developed world, but some of their citizens are famous for infringement. Take Uematsu Nobuo, for example, who has committed probable copyright infringement and definite plagiarism. The proof can be heard in Stairway to Heaven and Suteki da ne.
"Including an explanation of Apple�s role in creating the proliferation of male enhancement drug commercials."
So Google Adwords had nothing to do with it?
One more thing, since nobody else seems to have bothered:
"The Internet is for porn
The Internet is for porn
So grab your dick and double click
For porn, porn, porn"
Big clue from Avenue Q there.
Unfortunately for Pawluck, the "restraining order" isn't mutually restrictive.
Why don't the police subject all citizens to restraining orders that the citizens are then allowed to make mutually restrictive before gathering in a 1.1 kilometre circumference ring outside the police station?
I guess there's no point in arguing to Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning and Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt that YouTube is simply a dumb pipe that delivers the content that's uploaded to it by criminals since certain politicians seem to be dumb pipes that deliver the nonsense provided to them by lobbyists.
Treaty says "anybody can make an accessible copy where no legally available accessible copy already exists", so publishers make legal accessible copies of media available just so no one can make use of the new Fair Use provisions, making money from a previously non-existent market. Care to tell me who loses in this deal, MAFIAA, or are you really that stupid? Oh, wait...
It's at times like this that I wish Google Inc.'s services were run by humans instead of robots, then we could appeal to them to ignore Fox's ContentID matches on this particular video.
Re: Re: It's deliberate "leak" for a "limited hangout".
While I tend to agree, that's not an especially good time to use the old "Why do you need privacy if you've nothing to hide?" argument.
I agree. In fact, I think that argument's akin to asking, "Why do you need a door on your bathroom if you've nothing to hide?"

Re: Re: Re:
Well, yes, but afterword groups such as the RIAA will have to lobby for weaker copyright laws (only because there is no other direction left).
I need that to happen for step #73 in my plan for hell to freeze over.
Well, I think that copyright maximalist groups lobbying for weaker copyright laws would be sufficient by itself to make Hell freeze over!
