  on Why Does Wal-Mart Need A 3,379-Word Terms Of Use For Its Twitter Account?
  Typical Walmart, thinks a EULA solves any possible legal problem. If it did why are there so many lawyers ? most of whom don't work for free.

  on It's Amazing What Happens When A Government's Not In Hollywood's Pocket
  A good start would be to cease trying to turn customers into criminals because the (gasp) download something. Lower the prices, speed up the release times, in a word innovate.

  on Solution To Net Neutrality? P2P And Shame?
  I ,cringley has a novel solution for net neutrality involving seed money to fund the last mile, put up by Microsoft and others preferly in a consortium as a win-win both for the consumers who get a fat pipe and for Microsoft who would be actually innovating instead of gobbling up another possibilty.

  Grokster Case

  on Grokster's Impact On File Sharing? Uh... Not Much
  I agee that it is well past time that the RIAA should persue it 's treating customers like criminals. This along with DRM and sofware(and genes)patents are resticting 'fair use", innovation and a few other things.We can only hope that either they wise up or some legal case strikes down the silliness.
