File Traders Moving Further Underground


File Traders Moving Further Underground 01/17/2004 10:47 PM
This shouldn't be a surprise to, well, anyone, but the more the RIAA fights back against file sharing, the further underground file sharing goes. The latest efforts include building in more anonymity to file sharing services, and also designing systems to make it easier to figure out which files were legitimate, and which were fakes, viruses or spyware. This is only going to continue until the recording industry stops the current self-destructive campaign and realizes it's time to embrace file sharing and figure out ways to build real business models based on file sharing. Either that, or they can wait and let others do it for them - which is what appears to be happening.

You May Soon Go To Jail For Sending A
Single Legal File
05/20/2004 05:43 AM
Back in March we discussed a positi vely moronic bill being proposed in California that would require anyone passing on an electronic version of any commercial audio-visual file to include their real name and email address. If you don't - you can face a year in jail and a $2,500 fine. Note that this law doesn't make a distinction for fair use, or pay attention to whether or not you actually have the right to pass on or share that file. There are so many problems with this law, it's hard to figure out where to start. It's basically the "incriminate yourself" law. Next thing you know, they'll pass a law saying that if you intend to rob a store, you'll be required to leave a card with your name and address. Basically, anyone who's doing something illegally will ignore the law - while anyone who is doing something legally will be bothered by needing to do this while also giving up their privacy for no good reason. In fact, it's especially problematic for children - who shouldn't be giving out their names and addresses to anyone, but who may have perfectly legitimate reasons to pass on an audio-visual file. There are probably fifty more such problems with this law which, of course, is why the California Senate approved it today. It is beyond moronic, and it may soon be law.

That's right: make sure the punishment really fits the crime. Over in Italy, if you are caught uploading or downloading an unauthorized file, you now face three years in jail. While older, more intelligent laws focused on whether or not the person copying files was doing so for commercial gain, this new law takes away that provision completely. It's a different law than the one that we just spoke about in California, but it's almost as bad. Update: And since we're on the subject of silly laws concerning music, Greece is warning people that they can be thrown in jail for buying an unauthorized CD - not just for making or selling it.

Enron traders gloating about screwing
California
06/03/2004 05:24 AM
CBS has got hold of tapes of conversations between Enron employees during the California rolling blackouts. The conversations are amazing, basically a bunch of corrks gloating about the savage rogering they're giving to the people of California and how much money they're making. This has put fresh fire into the bellies of lawmakers who have renewed their vows to decapitate Enron's management and stake their heads on pikes outside of every polling place before election day.
Employee 1: "All the money you guys stole from those poor grandmothers in California?

Employee 2: "Yeah, Grandma Millie man.

Employee 1: "Yeah, now she wants her f-----g money back for all the power you've charged right up, jammed right up her a—for f-----g $250 a megawatt hour."
