That's the DLNA interface that allows your devices to share files with each other and is what makes any TV, Blu-Ray player, etc., a "Smart" device. So, do not enable the feature that is the only selling point for a smart product vs. non-smart product?
As I remember it, case law settled this with shrinkwrap software. The publisher was being forced to provide the refunds if the store didn't for software without having EULA available at purchase.
"is not physical force, but economic force" Open your eyes. It's physical force too; and becoming more forceful daily. It's unbearable already, which you can find out for yourself by checking many news accounts over the past three years.
Thank you for stating this so I don't have to. You stated it eloquently but it's a travesty this needs to be pointed out. I'm disappointed I had to read so far to see a correct response. Everybody should step back and examine how far your mindset has been twisted by the actions of our government over the last few decades. I have no words to describe how important are the rights you've surrendered. I am embarrassed for us all.
I've long suspected one of the hidden agendas for the Patriot Act was to enable drug sweeps. According to the first paragraph here:
"Government agencies continue to operate under the assumption that warrants, reasonable suspicion and the like are luxuries that our nation can no longer afford, not while we're under constant attack by terrorists and drug smugglers. "
Since when did we start including drugs as a legitimate reason to burn the Constitution?
I think what we need is a class action suit because DHS has us all on their no-fly list (as far as we know) without cause. If we have no standing, then we're not on the list?
///By the way, I don't fear admitting mistakes. It's the nature of truth to me. I cannot fear truth enough to evade it. As it is said: "It is what it is". Often I take pride in acknowledging that I recognized the mistake and have learned from it and have passed (and am past) that lesson.
"I wonder why humans in general are so damn afraid to admit they committed errors, that they failed."
Respectable, moral, and confident people admit their mistakes when necessary. Cowardly (n*ardly - afraid to use the acceptable "n" word in a society of illiterates) people live in fear and self-doubt (whether conscious of their fear or not).

Who told you it's OK to use logic and reasoning? You'd best keep those level-headed comments to yourself!

Re: Nor will I have an appliance that connects to the internet, other than a computer.
That's what I said until I determined having electricity was more important and was forced to accept a smart meter.

Re: Uh, how?
If you have the money you could buy a two-seater combat jet (some are perfectly legal) and hire a pilot to take you home.
Drug searches?
