I'm sure stuff like the Patriot Act allows complete transparency in regards to the running of a government while in war, Ohh wait, America has been in war for a long time.

Why don't you come up with evidence that the RIAA/MPAA has had their laws passed through bribery instead of spewing these unsupported assertions?

Try and find the paper trail of bribery.. generally it's pretty well hidden.

Roze your repeated use of the word "Supreme" is becoming tiresome. Also, America runs on money, not votes, bribery is how the show runs out there, and in most "democratic" scenarios.

Ya I hate Games For Windows, more resource hogging shit to limit your game play, use Xfire if you want ingame chat, less polluted.

Well, all I can say is that I'm glad that this hasn't been followed up, although, the British Government does like to lie on a regular basis. For example, if you've been watching the UK news recently about the new airport terminal expansion at Heathrow, the controversy of them not sure whether to do the runway or not. It's all a visage, a deception, a friend of mine is currently getting his final security checks done to go and work on this new runway/terminal project. I'll reiterate this, The British government lies on a regular basis, so don't be so sure the storm is over yet.

This to be created subsidiary of OfCom is a joke, it'll be a new amalgamation of the IFPI/MPAA/RIAA/FAST, where the good ol' government will squeeze more money out of us to fund feck knows what.

Ya, if you have a sneaking suspicion you're gonna be busted, shred your files and open your router's wifi to the public and blame some supposed wardriver.

In my eyes, this is a terrible conviction, copyright spouts human ingenuity, get rid of copyright and then try and take them to court.

Community service, what is all that about? They've done a great service to the world by taking their time to distribute knowledge, now they've gotta clean skanky toilets for helping others learn. I'd look at this in exactly the same way whether it be distributing apps/ebooks/games/music/video - all this knowledge helps others to know more.

We're in a world that learning and the spreading of information is restricted, thus we must accept what the people higher up the pyramid want to feed us, and then to make matters worse they then attempt control the distribution method of this knowledge reaching us. Can you afford a TV license? (would you even want one? :P)

It's a bloody hypocrisy.
