    Re: Super LOLZ

    I'm still trying to understand it. Microsoft seems to have equated everything information related to "piracy." Data theft isn't piracy, neither is credit card fraud, but they it seems they want you to believe that. In fact, that woman purchasing Office 2010 from "Litasoftware" may be purchasing a legitimate copy of Office from a third-party retailer. Who do we know, we have no access to any information aside from a guy in black lycra. It might be pirated, or it could be totally legitimate. What are they trying to say?

    Our government already controls a number of infrastructures, and heavily regulates many that are held in private hands. I'd much rather have a "government controlled" internet in that sense, because it means the corporations who otherwise control them, can't control them. I'd rather have my internet "controlled" by an accountable government, than the whim of a profiteering corporate mogul. The importance of regulations of something that underpins our speech cannot be understated.
