Declaimer:
My interest in most things is purely theoretical. Please do not assume personal endorsement of any values, beliefs, or practices discussed in my posts. Not trying to troll either. Sheesh!
In my unprofessional legal view, it seems that what the copyright clique is really hoping to gain from this case is a precedent for making website owners responsible for ensuring that content uploaded to their site is…
I resent the accusation. But I do venture south of the "sanity" meridian quite often, so perhaps I have lost perspective. Perhaps I should watch more television. Do engage the substance of my inquiry, please. If it is…
What exactly is it about losethos's cognitive patterns that you find "insane"? (honest question) I have spent quite some time reading miscellaneous forum threads by him and have found nothing that shocks me as…
If you think I'm advocating pandering to the lowest common denominator and reinforcing ignorance, you are mistaken. I am pointing out the fact that within a system of social organization which allows "material capital"…

Attention deficit is a conduct disorder, which means that its diagnosis relies entirely on assessment of patient's behavioural patterns. Since it's next to impossible to keep a patient under 24/7 observation, secondary…
War on General Purpose Computation == War on Consciousness. Why not just go straight to the root of the problem and outlaw certain kinds of cognitive patterns? Since "intellectual property" begins in the mind, so does…
There are NO technological solutions. It is mathematically impossible to restrict communication of certain kinds of information, while still allowing information exchanges to take place. This is why there are no legal,…
The question of intellectual property is moot. It is impossible to adequately police teh intertubes without outlawing encryption. Why do the media companies insist on continuing to attempt the impossible, instead of…
