It's not like the shills get paid to do research, they just spew whatever they are told, even if it doesn't makes sense or can be debunked in 30 seconds of research
Except if a website wants to be accessible to all these different countries they'll have to pay for each country specific domain, and that'll get rather pricey. Bigger companies might be able to afford that, but not smaller companies, or individuals with a single blog or site.
Except that this can and will be used for censorship. It doesn't have to be illegal for it to be censored, the people in charge just don't have to like the message
It obviously has to be google, because the whiners of 4chan that are the only other real opposition wouldn't be able to book a hotel because they are all a bunch of little kids
Sounds a lot like their strategy with DRM, punish people who will actually buy the game/movie and drive your loyal customers to pirate better quality, DRM free copies, while having no affect on those already pirating, other than making sure they don't become a paying customer
Try reading AC, While the text of the messages hasn't been revealed, the fact that the judgment is based on the girl "feeling uncomfortable" leaves open a wide range of possible abuses.
If this officer's response to being filmed involved in questionable activities is to push for criminal charges against the person who caught him doing it, it seems like he does not deserve to be an officer of the law at all any more.
If this officer beats someone til he's blind in one eye it seems like he does not deserve to be an officer of the law at all any more regardless of whether or not he sues someone afterwards.
As far a release delays go I don't care. I typically add new movies to my queue before they are released to theatres and don't actually care when I get the disc.
I do the same thing. And without having cable to watch all the ads about the movie release I generally don't even know it's on DVD til I get it in the mail. So it's not like I have to count down the 28 days til I get it.
So, by separating out the Streaming vs. the DVD customers into distinct groups, they will have more accurate data to present going into these deals.
I've seen other people make this comment as well, but that doesn't make much sense. It does not tell you any more accurately what movies they will stream/how many movies they will stream. If they are keeping databases of viewing habits, which they are, they already have information on how much people stream movies vs getting dvds.
