I think the most amusing aspect of this whole thing is that District Judge J.P. Stadtmueller would have had to sit through at least one showing of a video where an effeminate man repeatedly expresses his wish to be anally raped, and then through a showing of similarly themed video but this time with the cartoon character of an 8yr old boy.
I think the second vid (the south park episode) is embedded content from Comedy Central, depending on your region it may not be available to you. Could explain why I get the German version; "Wo, wo, in den Po".
You don't need porn to be obsessed with sex, just hormones. It's what happens when you hit puberty, not knowing wtf it is you're craving is probably worse. I grew up with porn (I'm dutch) and my family took a very liberal view of the whole thing. As I get older I notice that I'm not that interested anymore in it, it's probably because my testosterone levels are dropping with age. People that want to ban porn are afraid of sex, likely because they were taught to equate it with shame at a young age.
Congratulations! Everyone around you is stupid and therefore you must explain the painfully obvious without the use of capitalization. Please explain more things that nobody will read and don't forget to forget to use the shift button!
I just submitted a story about this. Checked the posts and didn't see it was already up. Anyway this is what I posted:
So I got my copy of AC2 for PC in the mail today. Pre-ordered the damn thing last year. Popped it in, installed to the hard drive. First thing that happens is it installs a patch, after that's done it asks me to create an account, which I try and then it hangs while trying to download the TOS from the Ubisoft servers. So I look around to find out what the hell is going on and sure enough:
The servers are down, more than a day now. Seriously wtf. I'm returning my copy today, its faulty in my opinion. If I had known about the crap Ubi was going to pull I would never have pre-ordered the damn thing.
The fucked up thing is I actually predicted this would happen in the comments section here on techdirt.
Had this exact same issue with "Up" on blu-ray recently. What that picture leaves out is when your blu-ray player needs to be "updated" and you have to wait 20 minutes for it download crap from the internet.
I can't believe I pre-ordered this on Amazon. I know exactly what's going to happen - the day afer launch everyone will be trying to run AC2 and Ubisoft's servers will fall over. And then no-one (except those who cracked the DRM) will be able to play.
