But the legal term of infringement due to the Cablevision ruling clearly states that if the transition is an individual basis and from a unique individual antenna source...the data being retransmitted for a SINGLE customer's needs comes from said antenna...The way the broadcasters suing are arguing in the same way if it were illegal to stream music from a single FM radio signal throughout your house through wireless speakers or devices...Aero rents its antenne out to its customers, sets up a simple wireless network relay to provide a SPECIFIC set of data to be retransmitted the same way...to a specific customer...so it's one line with one PRIVATE user...
FlimOn relies on a single server connected to many users at once...and runs the data to their customers...which is illegal because the source is from one antenna for many customers...which makes it a legally PUBLIC share. It's sort of like patching into your neighbor's cable line...

FilmOn relays the signals to make multiple copies of the broadcast to be shared by multiple users from one hard drive and server (DLNA service like PlayOn) so multiple users have to tune into a single server to access their content....whereas Aero uses one unique antenna and one transmission and one turner per user per antenn and uses a series of repeaters that carry each signal directly to each individual. With Aero, each customer is uniquely assigned but Aero has each individual using their own devices to get signals where FilmOn uses a single distribution sever for multiple users...the latter is very very dark grey legally speaking...and the methods are quite different.
CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox Broadcasting and their studios won a temporary restraining order against David's FilmOn in November 2010 to prevent unlicensed use of their broadcast signals. David sued CBS, dropped the suit, and sued CBS Interactive in November 2011, alleging copyright infringement due to the CNET website having editorially covered infringing uses of peer-to-peer file-sharing software. In June 2013, David filed a countersuit against the four networks seeking a ruling that providing Internet technology for receiving over-the-air broadcast signals at no charge does not violate broadcasters' copyrights.

If anyone wants to know why some Republicans are comparing Obama to running this country like a Communist? Look no further than how the USSR handled its science division with military rank...and compare it to how various law enforcement agencies are clamoring to keep their methods classified...
When Nintenfo fans saw this coming, they got laughed at because the WiiU wasn't "powerful" enough and therefore the worst system or "downgrade"...all I can say Wii told U so ;-)
The following may be the best analogy of Prenda Law entirely:
these three guys seem to pass around cases like a group of high school kids under the bleachers passing around a joint.

Anyway...still the biggest tie to the case is the RIAA...I'm sort of wondering if there is a deeper connection with the RIAA besides Beryl Howell...this might take a LOT of digging.
Did you read the last paragraph of the article or anything beyond my comment about gun control before or after you decided to not read my entire comment beyond the first bit on gun control....
You do realize that most of the theoretical gun laws that would ban them completly are based on asthtetcis of the weapon itself right.
By current military and NATO standards, an assault weapon is a weapon that can switch between semiautomatic and automatic firing modes...that's all it is...the media is responsible for skewing those standards to get ratings and as a result when people see an AR-15...which is only ever a semiautomatic version of a .30 ot 6 with an assault rifle asthetic to it...they all go on as if it were actually an assault weapon just by how the damn thing looks.
The fully automatic firing of weapons in these cases are also severely skewered by mainstream media...in full automatic mode, the M16 assault weapon takes only 4 seconds to empty a 30 round clip...The guns that were fully automatic in any of these cases were modified ILLEGALLY....
Ok so now that gun control is out if the way...I think that the game makes a rather interesting thoughts pop into my head...
First thought is how much more tragic and bloody would the Sandyhook shooting would have been if say a katana were used?
The other point it makes is quite clear...it's not the guns we need to worry about, it's about the person misusing the gun or object to to very bad things that might not be beyond there control. I can tell you that with my own clients that It's hard to predict that kind of behavior or trigger that would indicate someone who is about to shoot a bunch of people through misguided rage. Hell even the TSA hasn't had much success in behavior specialists being able to spot people who rampage like that...the LAX shooting proves the difficulty in it.
I do reccommend they study children between the ages of 5 through 7. Restricting technology to a time limit might actually be healthy from what I've seen from a few clients of mine.
Man if this doesn't show the TSA's misappropriation of money to the public..I couldn't tell you what would. I watched the report about this on the news and CBS did an entire 48Hours segment on it.
"First, the name of the site in and of itself encourages the posting only of “dirt,” that is material which is potentially defamatory or an invasion of the subject’s privacy."
In a very literal sense...getting the dirt on someone is categoried...deframation is not truthful, but even so, common language of the term indicates deframoatory statements...That website's sole purpose is deframation because of the dirt it recieves from users...Things will always be investigated by the courts to determine defamation..
TechDirt is an online news journal/technology /legal blog and because the writers typically show evidence confirming their stories....so it's safe.
Seeing Honeywell Energies Corporation (a coal mining/power company) on both their lists is not surprising considering how heavy handed they both were towards the nuclear power industry.
