Software Piracy

So, first, I would like to justify why I have posted this to these
newsgroups. You are my communities of choice as I feel most aligned
with you. We are all guilty of it. You know, downloading that one
illegal mp3 back in 1993. But I would like to change this world
because it has gotten out of control. Lawmakers are dumb and after all
these years they still don't use the internet enough to know what is
happening. What is happening is a revolution of information exchange.
What is happening is universal ignoring of copy-right law.

People who spend a lot more time on the internet than a copy-right
protection coder will be able to crack that HD-DVD or Blue-Ray code.
And behold, it has already been done.

So what is to be done? Here is the advice I have given to one relative
who is actually the victim of piracy.

First, start with the recording industry itself. Stop spending money
trying to attack fans for posting images and music and whatever. There
are too many of them and they are openly defying copy-right law. It
isn't a law if you can't enforce it.
