Apparently some of these included threats and vulgar language.
There is no need for this, and president Obama just did a similar thing calling for citizens to call congress. In essence this was unsolicited spam email and should be held in the same regard..
You guys have to realize the govt CAN get involved with anything they want, it doesn't HAVE to make sense, or even have a reason. Govt is politics and they HAVE to justify their work. Forcing MSFT to have a removable IE was ridiculous, but yet the govt spent millions (?) of dollars in litigation which should have never been done. And MSFT lost on some anti competitive issues, was the FCC right? or can you indite a "Ham sandwich"
I don't expect much to come of it unless the FCC, can blame AT&T cause the current administrations staff has been reportedly a big fan of Apple (this makes sense) and has said they were displeased there werent any apple computers in the white house.
How much harm to the environment is being done by his article? i mean we are reading it, i must be up to about a pot of tea by now. Hey Al Gore how about an internet carbon tax?
I guess this falls in the category of hate crimes! A more tougher sentence if when you kill someone you hate them, and a lesser sentence whne you love someone then kill them!
The funny thing is these politicians have voters that support them!
The same stupidity applies to the favorable ruling against a Radio station that promoted the Great White concert where a fire broke out and killed many people, in Rhode Island.
If a radio station can be sued and found guilty so can Craigslist.
I wonder if the right to privacy people will condem this or not due to the fact they are usually the same people screaming global warming. I bet there wont be a word mentioned, by them or the ACLU! As far as the fuel consumtion they can always plant a tree to offset the carbon damage. Afterall this is what Al Gore does!
Techdirt has not posted any stories submitted by elitedefinition.
Didnt the White House just do this?
I thought the white house just closed sites randomly, under the guise of Gambling AND file sharing?
So apparently this rule is already in place! Congress doesn't need to be involved.
lol
When you have 72 billion in the bank, that can always help people remember if their police dept was there or not.

"Hate Crime"
I guess this falls in the category of hate crimes! A more tougher sentence if when you kill someone you hate them, and a lesser sentence whne you love someone then kill them!

They are all corrupt!
Stupid laws and lawsuits continue
The same stupidity applies to the favorable ruling against a Radio station that promoted the Great White concert where a fire broke out and killed many people, in Rhode Island.

Couldn't agree with you more.
You are absolutely correct they write laws to write laws. The "hate crime" law is ridiculous.
Let's see.
