Re: Fantastic Orlando Vacation with United Flight Booking
Rick,
Thanks so much for your link. Please try re-posting over at Reason.com, where they don't moderate. I'm sure they will love your free-market approach to unregulated (and unwanted) advertising!
Damien I am sure i spend much less time watching TV/Movies since I cut the cord. I have several streaming services now, and I don't use them as much as I did.
One thing I never do anymore is just surf, looking for "something" and end up watching a movie I like "Because it was on" commercials and all, instead of getting up and finding the shelf with the disk. :)
Given that the shit most people take with the cell phone isn't exactly Cindy Sherman, please enlighten us on how you'd differentiate the former from the latter.
Exactly - does all that shit taken with a cellphone deserve the same copyright protection as a novel? If most of it is shit, where do you draw the line?
So if we're going to go with the traditional copyright notion that creativity is of the essence, then some photos qualify, and others don't.
This argument is as old as the camera. Many artists embraced the new technology. Others really wondered if this was "art" at all. Especially since it was infinitely repeatable. It wasn't art if you had the negative and could make a thousand more prints - it was just mechanical duplication.
It's just as much the Media Copyright cartels demanding that they need to scan your files just in case.
"You can't just scan every communication!"
"But it's a certainly that some of them will have copyright violations, therefor the only way to be sure is to scan every upload, download, and email. Because it's our corporate right to protect our business!"
The game was obviously transformed into a social commentary.
Copyright, used by corporations, to stifle speech. No one can ever say "It couldn't happen," because it just did. (That's censorship via the federal government.)
The Warrant is applied to the person with the key - not the vendor.
Serving the vendor with a warrant to obtain the data is like showing up in Detroit and service Ford for the keys to a locked car in Florida. Then demanding that Ford design their cars to be opened with master keys.
People pay $40 a month for gigabit fiber service here and we have a small handful of not Comcast/AT&T ISPs that compete for customers thanks to the SF ordinance.
It's a big problem for the ISP's who have to compete. They wrote Pai some big checks and they expect him to take big action to stop this shit.
I'm not going to go out on a limb and say all holistic treatment is a scam. That would be an absolute and unverifiable. But yeah, it's filled with scammers.
Not as many as in the self-help book industry of course. That is, by nature, nothing but get rich quick scams from top to bottom.
1) You can't just "Break Up" the corporations you don't like without an actual reason. You know - a fucking law. So stuff it.
2) You are a corporatist - you LOVE copyright, the tool that gives corporations the right to censor you. Enjoy.
3) You STILL can't show us your Fre Peach website, or any other website that exists without moderation. Until then - stuff it.
4) Still not Tim. Take your meds.
Since you're a racist, you brought race into the mix, I didn't.
You are the one that said it was wrong for the government to make you serve minorities. I'm just pointing it out. Shouting "racist" back at me while crying about it doesn't make me a racist.
Nice deflect - but you are still saying it's wrong for the government to make you serve blacks, chinese, jews, and the dirty irish so what's your nazi point?

Re: Re: Thanks for wasting an hour of YOUR time on this anomaly.
For someone who loves to whine about corporations controlling speech, you sure do love to support the idea when it involves copyright.
You have raised a salient point. The answer is, "Because some smart person at Reason said that copyright is essential and belongs to class A1 people."
Thus, Blue Balls can safely ignore the consequences of corporate copyright. Corporate censorship is welcome to Blue.
