said by Jodokast96  :It's ok for us to break the law to keep you from doing it. The typical arrogance of those in power. When the rules favor THEM, they expect people to follow them.
When the rules make it hard for them, they see fit to "bend" them a bit.
I don't participate in downloading copyrighted material without making proper payment for it. Any more, it's just too easy to pay up, and get a clean copy of whatever I want.
But, someone needs to smack the MPAA in the taint for this one. What a bunch of self serving dummies.

"under threat of penalty". Latin sub = under; poena = penalty. |

said by article :
Attorney Rothken says he did not sue under the federal computer-hacking law, because it doesn't allow for vicarious liability.
I can't believe it isn't illegal to hire someone to perform an illegal computer intrusion.
Also, the idea that a website operator can be required to start keeping logs that he wasn't already keeping, in order to generate evidence for the benefit of the other party, is pretty outrageous. |

I wonder if this is related to "testify" which in the Roman days, you actually put your "boys" on the line, or they will be chopped off. At least this is how I heard it. |

Nah, if we were following Roman rules, or those of any decent society, the question would have never been asked to begin with.

I would agree with you, if that were only true. If I could get the "clean" copy for a fee, I would. If I could get the game without the CD protection, I would. For that matter if the damn game would even run without getting hung up on it's own piracy protection, I would buy it.
But I can't. There have been a couple of games I have paid full price for, only to HAVE to download a pirated copy to get it to run.

Bah...I never understand why we expect our politicians to be such moral leaders as well. I mean come on! They are rock stars w/ a suit and tie and females throw themselves on them. In Clinton's case, he was married to CHillary...I would have easily given him a pass on that alone.
If I was Bill I would have said "No I didn't have sex unless you consider a BJ sex, and it was great! Then I smoked a big fat one --- inhaled --- and it was good too! Now I am gonna smoke this bastage in the desert! Watch! Its good to be the President! Woohoo!"
This would have raised him up a couple of notches IMHO. |
