| You can't 'mandate' morality And you certainly can't use technology to enforce it. People will just encrypt their traffic, problem solved. This, like many US laws, doesn't get to the root cause of the problem, which is that the copyright laws are broken. I for one, advocate going back to 14 years. PERIOD. IF you are the owner, and you are a PERSON (not a corporation), then you can extend it for one more 14 year period. Otherwise, it joins the collective society pool.
Hell, if we had reasonable (14 year) copyrights, 99% of the stuff I download would NOT be in violation of copyright laws. Instead, ME, like most people, just don't care. Make all the laws you want, I don't care.
Why don't I care? Because I KNOW I'm not taking any money from the artist. I don't care about corporations making money, it's not my problem. I KNOW what I want, and I KNOW how to get it. simple as that.
