| Practically everything that anyone ever accesses on the internet is copyrighted - just about every string of text more than a few words, every image, script, and file of any kind. There's no way any automatic process can distinguish legitimate transfers from "piracy". | |

There's no way any automatic process can distinguish legitimate transfers from "piracy". Exactly. This is another one of those "suck up to the *AA" bills that stick the ISPs or whomever else with the burden of actually implementing it.
I would love to know how they're going to determine what is pirated content and what isn't. Going by the *AA rhetoric, all of You Tube would be pirated content, except for those labels who have struck a deal with You Tube...oh and yea that's another thing the ISPs will be responsible for monitoring.
Quite pathetic Berman. Lame effort. | |
