The more info that leaks out, the more that the FBI looks like a criminal organization.
They hide money and evidence at every opportunity, and create false trails to cover their tracks. If an average Joe did something like this, they would be regarded as a highly suspicious person of interest, at the very least.
Humble Bundle got my attention with this one. Might buy two copies so my brother can read some PA while overseas on mission. Amazing how they have taken products that are essentially given away for free over the internet by the creators, and found another way to somehow make money off it. Humble Bundle must be using witchcraft.
They reaffirmed their support of SOPA right at the start:
"We've only ever stated that the ESA represents us in legislative matters "
SOPA is a legislative matter. The ESA supports SOPA, therefore CAPCOM supports SOPA. Then saying afterwards that they have no internal stance is meaningless.
Your example actually works the opposite way. Cars past the early 90s are all required to use the same code diagnostic software (OBD-II). You generally need to buy a scanner, but it allows you to read the codes your onboard diagnostic system is storing. Your repair manual will have a section of codes listed to decipher them.
Where the car example does mirror Campos' is that the codes and diagnostics are designed for trained technicians (doctors in his case) and can still be pretty cryptic to decipher.
I feel it would be great to have data like this freely available. As long as it is not being used for marketting, i think the person who owns it should have free use. As long as it doesn't contain personal identifiers, it could be used to build apps to monitor your health in real time, and the data it collects over time could be used by researchers to study and make advancements in their field.
Holy crap, i think i just exceeded the total money supply of the entire world! No wonder the MAFIAA think they deserve the same if my own MAFIAAnomics can reach the same outcome from a single song.
Multiplied by the amount of discs produced, the number of average views per disc, and the number of average viewers in the audience of each viewing. Maybe they could cut the number of views down, except my dvds all seem to be locked so i can't skip to the menu.
Come on DH, if the RIAA and MPAA can get you kicked off the net now on accusations, the next step is to make it illegal for anyone to speak about their failures to adapt to the present and future.
If you are watching a movie, do you get charged for each song in the soundtrack? What about if you are watching a music video for a song and it shows clips of the movie? Seems only fair to charge a fee on top of a fee for those privileges.
Maybe the chip can be programmed to cause you to go blind or deaf whenever music or movies are playing that you aren't willing to pay for. That way we only have to reject one or two of our senses temporarily to avoid infringing.
To add to this, losing 1/3rd of your traffic is huge. If you run your own business, and you suddenly lost 1/3rd of your gross sales, would your business still be profitable? Doubtful.
What i got from the article was that if the cult could show sufficient damages under Dendrite, then discovery would still be allowed. I find it disingenuous that the cult copyrighted the manual shortly before pursuing legal action. It seems like it was just legal maneuvering specifically to identify the people speaking out against them. If you don't think anonymity is important, especially when you are speaking out against religious groups, i challenge you to join a scientology chapter and then proceed to shed light on your experiences there.
If Apple wants to control the reveal of their product, then why was an Apple engineer bar hopping with a prototype? It's not Gizmodo's responsibility to sit on that story, and Apple got A LOT of great, free coverage of the iPhone4. Too bad they lumped in all the negative publicity for being vindictive.
In the news today, cranky old man yells at young start-up internet companies to keep off his internet-lawn.
