OH MY GOD!! A woman teacher can have sex with a 13 year old boy child and get NO time, even make book deals to make money, and this guy does this and has to go to jail? what's the world coming to?

In the UK there is a yearly Tax (okay they call it a license fee) on every house that has a TV. It doesn't matter whether you have cable, Sat or antenna. It doesn't even matter if you are a student in a dorm you have to pay the yearly license. This is in theroy to pay for BBC-1& 2 that are run by the state. Sort of like forcing everyone here to support PBC just because you own a TV. Whether any of this goes to the Movie/Radio industry I don't know.

As for Sony I believe they were accused of having a Root-Kit virus on some of their releases.

at least the DMCA sees root kits as bad and says you can kill them...but still a long way to go before we get full fair use back...if the media mafia wants to double dip let them but thru regulation so theres a bigger brother making sure no bullying is going on...

There's this loud obnoxious PR[race] guy at work who sticks his nose in everyone's business and rats you out. He used to sell pirated dvds on the work floor. After he heard that he might be ratted on he started selling out of his car in the parking lot. He's made trouble for me twice by not minding his own business when I had a confrontation with someone at work. One is the vending machine jerkoff. Rightly so. This PR guy has been there 12 years. He should be turned in and serve 12 years in the fed pen. Agreed?

It just goes to show that justice is there for those that can afford it! Celebrities of all kinds (Movie Stars, football players etc...) can do pretty much anything and then buy their way out...even if you are totally guilty like OJ Simpson you can use large amounts of cash to confuse evidence and play the system.

I can't feel sorry for the movie indusrty because they already make so much money. I'm not saying that what this guy did wasn't wrong...it was wrong. But the punishment should fit the crime. Seven years for filming a movie! Jesus...it's not as if he was armed and threatened the theatre owner. It's a mad world.

there are acouple things you need to think out first will removing him and it being known that you were the one that removed him make your life better?

If at least 1 of these are yes then moving on to 2,will anyone give a damn?
this being the crime it is theres a 50/50 chance it will be ignored in the long run be ready for more shit from him and his if you are willing to stick your head out and get this guy removed you might be able to claim harassment on his ass if he dose but meh....only screw with it if you feel youmust...I know dealing with people can be fun...but....monkeys throw poo be ready to get dirty ;_;

The feds have been making a point on all types of crimes since Bush got into office. Look at what they did to Tommy Chong he got a year and a day in Federal Prison for having a web site with his name on it. All he did was sold Bongs no dope but they wanted to make a point. He lived in California and the Pittsburgh Federal court went after him and won. They got me for violating an agreement with a past employer that I signed a no compete contest and tried to get a job with another high tech compeditor and they took 5 years to charge me and I got 6 months in a club fed. So anything you do on the internet is being looked at very closely so be careful they can come and get you from any state and will.

duke8888..........I know this is off topicbut it is somewhat related..

Three years ago, I was sued by an ex-employer for quiting work for him. My contract was up which he never fulfilled anyway. He couldn't sue using the no competition clause because my new employer [whom also was named in the suit for hiring me] was engaged in another field. What was astounding was the court and the judge. My ex-employer sued claiming that the reason I left was to make more money. The idiot judge said that was reason enough to bring the case to court. I guess this means that anytime someone seeks a better position, they are liable for damages.....

Anyway, my ex-employer bit off more than he could chew. My new employer, when receiving the court summons became very angry and being a person of wealth and some influence, ran my ex-employer through legal hell to the point that my ex-employer lost his business, his home, and most of his personal money.

After the dust settled, it was found out that the judge was a friend of my ex-employer and the only reason the judge let the case go forward was their hope that I would be let go from my new position and would possibly go back to work at my old job.

The point is that the justice system is not a justice system, it is a tool for those that knows how to use it for their own gain. The MPAA and the RIAA are doing just that...

Sarcasm...

Noted....

SayYes

You just went to the wrong school...We had two female teachers and one had a 15 year old daughter that joined in.

I'm an old fart, so this happened around 50 years ago when women, short of killing or robbing would be protected and could do no wrong...Women got away with a lot of things back then..

What you're talking about is giving media control thru the government, which IMO would be very bad. Yes, there does need to be legislation, but not in what measures they CAN take to prevent piracy, but in what they CAN NOT do. DMCA is one of the worst things that ever happened to this country and it's given these industries more of a power trip than ever, any further legislation would just make the situation worse unless it was turned to limiting THEIR actions, not ours.

not quit ,like in the 80s when corperations were running amok the goverment setped in and sorted the mess out,what I want the goverment to do is create a tax a regulation making all downloading for personal and archival use to be free and legal,thos that make money off downloaded stuff that dont have the IP/CP contracts the media mafia can go after all they want but for the 85-90% of us that don't use it for personal wealth the media mafia needs to step off.
the trick of regulation is in the balanceing to have a 1% tax on the net/new computers/digital devices/black media(includeing flash drives) should create enough profit to pay for the regulation bit and give the poor poor media mafia and their brethren their pittance.
with this in place all downloading for any thing will be free and legal BTW if you cant tell if tis legal the media mafia cant sue you unless your a pirating ring.

its a shame it will never happen tho the media mafia has their .45 firmly placed up the governments rear....

Ok, sorry if I misunderstood what you meant, but I'm afraid of any legislation allowing for a certain amount of it would give both the companies and the government too much power.

-ADDING TO PREVIOUS POST-
Too much power and room for possible interpretation to turn it into yet another way to monitor what we do with our own things. Any such law would have to be VERY carefully worded so as to not be open to ANY interpretation at all.

hummmm im going to start selling weed..i just might get 4 years...
