Colin, i have absolute faith in the honorable intent of my government. But, i fear for the productivity loss such a move might cause. With potentially thousands of strategic workers now focusing on identifying potential terrorist threats, there is the danger of ignoring the greater need our country has for strategicly placed snitches to snoop out software pirates and music traders. Fingering your boss as a dirty terrorist operative is all well and good, but not if it prevents you from notifying authorities of the person in the next cube sharing his MP3s with the rest of the office. Patriotic groups such as Microsoft and the RIAA have put much time and effort into cultivating a network of quality stoolies; what a waste to throw that all away on such a trivial activity. We need to get our priorities straightened out. :suss:

"These workers will use their common sense and knowledge of their work environment to identify suspicious or unusual activity" When did this become common? It's an oxymoron where I live... "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Recursion." "Recursion who?" "Knock, knock..."

To be honest, I think we all realise the US is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Just having "HomeLand security" shows that Osama won some ground, but without it the US is more vulnerable. Who knows maybe there will be a spin-off from all this security industry being created. Regardz Colin J Davies

People who share mp3s are terrorists. By denying the record companies.. err.. artists the money they deserve, they undermine the very foundations of capitlism and democracy and even life as we know it. Then there was that young hacker in Finland trying to watch DVDs on his Linux box. If we allow these things to happen, we might as well dye our flags red and call each other comrade.

It's their goal to enslave you, though if you live in the PRC you might not notice that - it's already been accomplished there. :) Yeah, I read the irony in your post, but I couldn't help myself... :-D "Knock, knock."

Don't you think that CP is even a bit evil, because it allows knowledge to be shared outside of the US of A ? Regardz Colin J Davies

A little knowledge can be a very dangerous thing. Fortunately, places like China and Afganistan have government firewalls to keep the knowledge out. In the western world, several media outlets give different versions of the story. We're informed, but too confused to act. "Religion is based on faith, and faith is immune to logic.

Actually if the government would start filtering out my spam, I think it would be value for the taxes I've been paying. As long as decent publications like the National Enquirer exist we'll be Ok, At least they publish news that the other "names" are too scared to release. Regardz Colin J Davies

wait just a minute. is sharing a mp3 an act of terrorism. NO Hacking the dvd-encryption for watching on a linux-box. NO Maybee illegal but not terrorism. Record companies live on the open market and if they cant adjust their buissnies model to the new reality of today then they are bound to go under. I rather bye my music direct from the artist and promote his/her work than from some shady record company whos pure interest are to make as much money out of me and the artist as possible. /Stefan

Technically neither of those are illegal either. (sharing mp3s isn't a problem if the music isn't copyrighted, and the legality of the DMCA is somewhat dubious) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!
