This Chicago gang of Marxists think they have every angle figured out to successfully impose tyranny.

About three strikes, I’ve been wondering if it would apply to companies. Sony has been caught repeatedly electronically distributing the songs of artists it no longer has rights to. Can we pull the plug on Sony’s Internet connection?

Of course not, this only applies to us little people.

LOL. This will only affect the law-abiding. At the end of the day, porn sites and spammers will still fill up your emailbox and the Chinese will be selling bootleg copies of every book and movie produced—ever in history.

That’s like Alamo Girl’s work during the Clinton Era.

I don’t know if they actually believe they can tell us what to do with our copyrighted stuff, but it appears the height of arrogance to propose that laws made on the INternational level have to apply to people that live in a republic with states reserving the right to secede, it’ll come down to more junk like this, where they try to force everyone in the world to bend to their will.
As Rockefeller once said “Competition is a sin.” and obviously the government that wants to demand obediance can’t have people “gossiping” about how flaccid it appears and how much dissembling goes on!

I have come to the conclusion that intellectual property law is so corrupt that ‘piracy’ is almost a justifiable act of civil disobedience. It anything like the proposed treaty comes into force, ‘piracy’ *will* be justifiable civil disobedience.

I see. Or rather do not. Using the link “...three-strikes-and-” I get a blank page. Going to the EFF site I do see the article from the link on that page, and that link is just what you have. Weird.

The program is going according to what the copyright cartel wants regardless of who is in office. I doubt Obama’s presence changed it at all.

IMHO...the entire goal of the Oligarchy is to place us all under these chains and fetters...to keep us from tossing them out on their bums!!
