  When?

  on As Expected, USA Freedom Act Aims To Stop Worst NSA Abuses
  When can we expect to see the outcome of this? I'm at the edge of my seat with anticipation of how this works out.

  on Yelp Sues Law Firm For Posting Fake Reviews
  I think it'd be easy for Yelp to claim harm to their business because of the fake reviews. Assuming someone goes to this law firm because they have such glowing (and fake) reviews...gets royally screwed over, that person is not going to trust Yelp any longer as a means of finding services.

  What's stopping us...?

  on NSA Defenders In The Senate Flip Out Over Amash Amendment To Stop Dragnet
  I'm not the biggest political guy (though I live in the DC Metro area, I've become a bit anesthetized to it all) -- but what, exactly, is stopping us from firing this people? I thought the Constitution allowed us, as a people, to be able to kick these folks out of office?
  
  I'm not trolling. I just a guy who wonders why we continue to put up with this nonsense.

  Legitimacy

  on Feds Take A Step Closer To Trying To Regulate Bitcoin
  A few months ago, 1 bitcoin was like $13. Now it's like $87. All this does is validate BC as a legitimate currency, and because of that...the whole thing has explored. A new hype/bubble? Perhaps. Time will tell.

  Apple is winning.

  on This Goes Beyond Tablets: Apple, Amazon & Google Are Betting On Economic Philosophies
  Apple is the most valuable company in the world. It's hard to argue in favor of anyone else's approach.

  Re: Oh come on!

  on How Sweden Handed Its Official Twitter Account Over To A Troll
  I agree. She's a bit naive, but definitely not a troll.
  
  She actually works for the government of Swedish tourism or something like that...that's why she got control of the account, NOT because they pulled her name out of a hat consisting of the census.

  on Apple CEO: When Others Violate Our Patents, They're Copying Our Hard Work; When We Violate Patents, The System Is Broken
  He did say that none of the suing that Apple is doing is for standard-essential patents. If that's true - then the tone of this story is moot.
  
  Have you investigated whether or not Apple is in fact NOT suing anyone for standard-essential patents?
  
  If what he said is true that Apple isn't suing anyone under those grounds, then his statement is true and is not double-edged.

  Why isn't this illegal?

  on Revolving Door Between The MPAA And The Federal Government
  It seems like this should be illegal. Like career politicians.

  I'm not much of a movie guy...

  on AMC Defies MPAA Bullies: Will Show Unrated Documentary To Kids With Permission Slips
  I don't really go to the movies much anymore, but I'm thinking a trip to an AMC theater to see "Bully" is something that I can get behind. I will patronize good decisions.

  on WaPo's Kaplan Scolded For Demanding $300 From Student Trying To Sell One Of Its Books On eBay

  on If Major Labels Are All About Helping Artists, Why Do We Keep Seeing Artists Calling Out Their Labels For Screwing Them?
  I'd be interested in picking that album up. I love it when hip-hop artists step outside their comfort zones and try something different. Worked well for Mos Def, Atmosphere, Eyedea & Abilities...to name a few.
  
  Now the tough decision...do I buy it to show there's support for this album or jump on the "FUCK UNIVERSAL" bandwagon and just pirate it?
  
  hmmm.. . .

  Forgiveness vs. Permission

  on Slovenian Ambassador Apologizes For Signing ACTA [Updated]
  This all goes back to that age old saying: "It's better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission."

  It was a REALLLLY important comment. Anyway to delete the duplicates? Either TechDirt or my Internet froze and it got silly...

  on What Is Ron Paul Thinking? Sues To Unmask Anonymous Internet Users
  That's what I was thinking. Being aggressive about it, not only to show is "disavowment" but to also, hopefully, prevent other supporters from making such videos.

  dumb

  on If SOPA's Main Target Is The Pirate Bay, It's Worth Pointing Out That ThePirateBay.org Is Immune From SOPA
  Sounds like they're about to blow up the house trying to kill a mouse that's immune to explosives.
  
  WTF?!!
