  • On the post: Google Maps Error Dispute Continues To Escalate Between Nicaragua And Costa Rica

    Google has very little to do with this

    The truth is that the whole conflict is a smokescreen to lift up nationalism and distract the Nicaraguan voters while Ortega goes for an unconstitutional third term as president.

    Google maps has nothing to do with it really. Ortega just wants the OAS and UN to concentrate on the wrong thing: the border, and ignore his autocratic move.

  • On the post: IFPI Says 95% of Music Downloads Are Illegal

    Give the rest of the world a legal alternative

    I daresay most of the "illegal" music downloads are from outside the USA. I would certainly pay for downloading music if music stores actually sold music in Latin America. All I get is messages saying something like "sorry, but you live in the third world, so we won't sell to you, PIRATE!".

    This is nuts! Once these stores open in the third world, who will want to buy anymore after being demonized?
