I agree, Piracy, like a black market, is a symptom of a system that is not working. Something that is in demand is not being properly vented, in this case, entertainment. Between high costs and bloated legacy channels, and the general asshole attitude of the gatekeepers like this entire article points out. People are looking for... alternative methods of consuming entertainment and culture.
There is a reason it's second name is the "Daily Fail". Yes occasionally they do a reasonable article, but that is like finding a gold nugget in a pile of shit. Who's gonna want to dig in a pile of shit for that rare gold nugget?
I want to see a defense lawyer, literally question the Judge as to why we need warrants in the FIRST place, if law enforcement can just introduce any evidence it wants to, without procedure, or relevant to whether it is true or not.
one the plus side, the democrats are trying to pass legislation on breaking up said monopolies, not sure how far that will go, what with congress being up to their eyeballs in corporate bribes... I mean "Campaign Contributions".
"The FCC now tells Gizmodo, however, that it holds no records of such an analysis ever being performed on its public comment system; the agency claims that while its IT staff observed a cyberattack taking place, those observations “did not result in written documentation."
That is VERY VERY irresponsible AT BEST. The agency in charge of COMMUNICATIONS, did no documentation on an ongoing cyber-attack, so they could report it later to authorities? Is that not unlike destroying evidence? or (rhetorical quesion) are they lying? If it WAS a cyber attack, would the FBI be involved, can we FIOA the FBI on records the FCC have submitted to the FBI?
I have a question... a serious question, at what point does the accountants for the isp's go "you know... it's costing us a shit ton of physical capital, not to mention the entire PR problems we have, I've crunched the numbers and well.... it'd be cheaper in the long run to just adopt these regulations."?
