    Thought

    That the Democrats controlled at least 1 part of congress. If so?? How is ot that the republicans ran around Congress and to the Sup CT.?? I Understand how the gov. agencies have been cut So bad that Most cant do their job, and this is How they wanted it. They want the LAw to belong to Each state. If you dont understand that TRICK.. Look at where most Credit card corps are located. Wilmington del. Because of regulations States Created About 100 years ago. And only 2(?) states dont have certain restrictions. And 1 of many reasons Credit cards can go HIGH INTEREST for any reason they want.

    what would be interesting?

    If fixing a few things that Corps Changed. Like the stock market. There is no ownership while owning stocks, anymore. They can Add to the original Value at anytime, and NOT affect the stock value. Then lets Fix Copyrights and that Whole system. If you AINT using it, it is not considered as a Product to be Protected. Books and Motors, engines, All of it. If Not used or has become Old tech, its an OPEN USE product. And adding Parts to a single product does NOT make it a NEW/Same Product. As in a new Medicine because they added another ingredient. Dont know if its been changed, but if you didnt know, that you can Build your OWN, Anything, from scratch, and its not regulated, but has to pass certain Fed regulations, like building your own car. And it would be interesting to Take This part and that part and make your own. But I dont think the corps would like that. Then would love the Old School Tech to come back abit to compete with NEW, Anti Computer tech.

    internet?

    Easy solution.. As the corps have DONE nothing to update and make the net better. Take it back, le the gov. Deal with it, as they USED to do with the utilities(before handing them to the corps, for profit). For Some odd reasoning the gov. has forgotten its power and How it watched over things. Insted of letting Corps designate how to do things, and Profit from Inches insted of feet. Long ago, far away the Telephone system was Built FOR A REAL REASON. Speed of information, and it Started as a distributed system, Which kinda sucked. Then the Corps Started buying all the small companies out, BUT kept the Charges and relay system to Charge Everyone with. The Original idea was WWI and WWII, and getting info around the nation, and WE PAID for it, as well as the Rural parts. The Corps paid for Little and charge the gov. much. Would LOVE to see the Gov. Become the corp Boss. As it should be, as it was. NOT BOUGHT OUT, as it has become.

    Who

    " but the fact that violators could face a felony." But Who gets charged?? Laws in the USA, that are not FEDERAL, have little to No affect Outside their own state, at the points where the Servers/companies Are located. AND even Then, there are things Legal in Many states that are considered Illegal, gross, Dumb, in others.

Dont you love having remote internet Access to your Car to Turn it on to warm up in winter? I WONDER, what would happen if the Car could not call home, at least 1 time per day/month?? Start Faulting to make it so you goto the dealer?? BET!!

    Fybby thing about this

    Is HOW MUCH do the corps THINK they are going to loose, in 1-2 days?? If its that EASY to COPY and CREATE.. They It should not be CR.

    ECA ( profile ), 27 Dec, 2024 @ 03:06pm

    Still

    Same Idea I suggested years ago. A central location where Verification of CR/and other Rights can be NOTED, and verified. There are Some strange ways to create Copyrights, and ways to HIDE them so that no one CANT direct copy them.. Having a Direct 3rd party that can look up and Evaluate, and SHOW proof of CR... PRICELESS.

    Dear glyn

    Would you like a strange story, to interpret your own?

    25Mbps

    Is Pretty good, if used properly.. As said many years ago. Your computer is as fast as the slowest thing in it. And the OLD HD's kinda sucked. But the M.2 and a few others have broken those speeds by 10x. Then there are the Routers, that SUCK. And trying to find the Stats on the box arnt easy.. Finding the Input speed AND the output is so much fun. I fell into this trap. Output was 100mbps Hard wire 300 with Wifi, but INPUT from the line was only 100Mbps. My ISP was sending 300Mbps. Then you need the Connection on your computer to be Higher(Pref) then your Router is sending. Windows Kinda Sucks while handling Networking. 25Mbps Should be able to handle 3-5 Net connections with no problems, UNLESS the Sites are covered with TONS of adverts from 3rd parties. MOST games would be Very Happy with a Solid Speed connection. (dont tell windows that) Ever wonder Why your cellphone Uses TONS of power, all of a sudden? And your Minutes for the net are USED UP?? Yep, you now have 5-10 Apps, trying to Send data to the net. Its not easy to discover What Windows is Doing sometimes. Where the Bad connection is happening.

    nice comment

    Now try to explain why Im wrong. As The First part Can be fact check, and is Proven. The 2nd part is shown threw History. Esp. With the trade routes That led all the way to China, but FEW in the west Even knew about China. Its Encouraged even now, by the Usa of the Word 'America' and only referencing the USA, and NOT the other 55(?) Countries that ARE PART of America. And Anything South of the USA is called WHAT? Mexico? We have a nation of people that Do not know the Differences of Types of Government, Let alone HOW OURS works.(Supposed to work) So get off your Tuffet, and Throw the Curds Away.

    To add to all the comments.

    The Gov. made a deal or forced Banks dealing with porn sites to NOT deal with certain types of porn. THEN, some states BANNED all porn sites, but did not consider Out of state/country Locations. Let alone Companies outside, while the Site is On USA soil. The GAME is so much fun. Wait for them to TRY to stop a Game from being played.. I used to have a strange thought about History and TIME. That there were Ages where Almost Everyone forgot Everything. And I think I can see how its done. Cutting back education and experience, so people dont get the WHOLE story of how things are done. That way they CANT compete with the corps.

    WOW,

    This sounds about as Stupid as the past Movie industry. Cutting shows They personally didnt like, but the Customers DID. So many shows and movies from the past that were Cut down, before they would be created. Finding private Agency that would LET them create, and then PAY to be Published on TV or the movie screen. And NEver get the credit they deserved.

  • On the post: Katie Couric Is Wrong: Repealing Section 230 Won’t Stop Online Misinformation

    ECA ( profile ), 17 Dec, 2024 @ 12:16pm

    Which part?

    Every group has its own truth, they think. With no reason/way to have the right to remove what is Probably Wrong. What choices do you have. Post whats Stomped all over your site, even when its not Quite true to facts? Then there is the religious groups that would Love to have Basic fundamental laws, but dont realize the reality of the complexity of Life and times. And the Corps would Love for Many laws to disappear along with going back to basics Bible laws. So you have Lots of backing for these Fundamentalists. Then as an example, is how the Gov. in the 1960's Covered up what they were doing in Vietnam and Korea, with all the News services, And Lying to the People of the USA.(not the Whole story was told) And even returning Military were astounded by What they were hearing, nad Passed info around. And the Protests started, but you didnt see 1/2 of the news showing the protests. It was the Hippies vs the National guard. How bad do we want freedom of the press? Check out 60 minutes and the law suits they have had. It took them years to get enough info and data to have a program to tell the truth, and IF' taken to court, they had Some protection.
