We're unique and special, just like everybody else.
I guess now is the time to hold a new duck competition for Oregon so they can have control over their own mascot.
And cassette tapes, the mix tapes that destroyed the industry in the early 80's, were deemed perfectly legal.
Many claim that it's really just an effort by the existing casinos to block out competition, but it would seem that those casinos would benefit greatly themselves by being able to offer their own online offerings.That would require the incumbernt industry leaders - the casinos - to do something different, and they are probably stuck in the same mindset as other industries. They worked hard to develop and refine a system that worked using the existing technology. With a disruptive tech like the internet, it is easier to cry foul when your "beautiful system" gets undermined that to try to start over and compete with others.
Best excuse has just gone from "The dog ate my homework" to "I can't do my homework because it's illegal." (not that copyright is a legal issue, it's a civil one)
Is it that time of year again? Who's playing?
You could put the DMCA takedown notice where the logo should go!
it makes you wonder what legislators were thinking when they put such a law in place.
Campaign contributions
Not any specific thing, just anything in general.
One of them is that some parents push their kids to be sports stars. The majority of parents just don't push their kids to be anything at all.
Was it the mention of YouTube or the Mafia that convinced you this was a good place to spam?
So you think pranksters are so stupid they don't care, or so rich they don't have to ?.
You can't squeeze blood from a turnip. For people in debt, getting sued is little to no deterrent. What's the difference between $100,000 in debt and $10,000,000? Very little when you were never going to be able to pay off the $100K in the first place. The only people who think a lawsuit is a deterrent is the people who have something to lose from a lawsuit.
I thought it was obvious ; it's just the price you have to pay to get what you want.
Getting sued is the price publicity stunts pay to get what they want. Getting mocked is the price any public person or organization pays once they begin to draw attention to themselves. Even the Yes Men will get mocked for this stunt, by the less well known yet still attention seeking people and organizations.
Unless you got really big you wouldn't be a target, but whoever you sold it to might be.
Watching a concert online is very different than being at one. That's why, despite all the bands with all the free music online the summer concert festivals around the world have taken off and become a huge money maker. Seeing all those people have fun and enjoy a live show makes others more likely to attend a live show, so even video becomes a marketing tool for the band.
The industry isn't dying, it's growing. It's the incumbents that are struggling to keep up with the changes.
