Anti-File Sharing Propaganda Back To Focusing On That Horrible
Malware You'll Get
,----[ Quote ]
| Then, we have the story of the MPAA apparently
| sending a bunch of anti-piracy comic books to
| New Zealand, home of one of many different
| fights on how to change copyright law. The comic
| book, like the BSA report, involves plenty of
| ridiculous and unsubstantiated claims about how
| file sharing will unleash nasty malware and
| viruses all over your computers -- but drawn in
| nice comic book form. Can we send those kids who
| got the MPAA comic book a copy of the Tales from
| The Public Domain comic books as well? There are
| free digital downloads for anyone who wants to
| hand them out in exchange for the bogus MPAA
| ones....

Yes vote very important, says Microsoft chief
,----[ Quote ]
| BUSINESS GROUPS: THE MICROSOFT executive who runs the software
| companyâs business outside of the US and Canada is the latest
| high-profile business leader to come out in favour of passing the
| Lisbon Treaty.
|
| Jean-Philippe Courtois, president of Microsoft International, said
| it was âvery importantâ not just for Ireland but for Europe as a
| whole that the treaty is ratified.
|
| âWe have a shift of power between China, Brazil, the Indias of the
| world and the US,â said Mr Courtois. âEurope needs to step up both
| economically speaking and politically speaking. That treaty has to
| be clearly embodied and move on with all the citizens in Europe.â
