Copyproof CDs moving to market?

Copyproof CDs moving to market?

Alright, I need someone to buy one of these things, try to play it on your computer, and then hire me to represent them. Which is to say, we need someone with standing. Because this bullshit is an obvious violation of we, the People,'s fair use rights. It needs to be fought and it needs to be stopped. Immediately.

The Trading Desk


The Trading Desk

The best mainstream behind-the-scenes baseball article ever written. Unfortunately for Beane, it may have blown some of the smoke away from the smoke and mirrors part of his act. Damn that light of reason!

Live, but Not Really

Live, but Not Really

Hmm. The American media sucks meme, in a different form than mine. Oh, and Aaron Brown was an ass when he was a local anchor here in Seattle. He's an even bigger ass on CNN.

March of Death

March of Death

Zack releases a song… and it is good. Among other things, it shows those pissant Beastie Boys how it's done. Zack has such a powerful voice (in terms of words). I'm glad he's still around.

Monday Is 'Moment of Truth,' Bush Says

Ah, it was about time. Time for the non-elected, power-mad, ignorant halfwits populating the halls in D.C. to tell the world to fuck off. Boy am I glad to be an American! Yahoo! Yippee Kiyay! Yeehaw!

The myth of interference

The myth of interference

… and if interference is a myth, then there is no necessity. If there is no necessity, then the governmentally-granted monopoly is an illegal Taking from we, the People. This is not new, however, Eben Moglen has been saying this for years.

The Xanax Cowboy

The Xanax Cowboy

Ms. Dowd has her best column in the past four months, and in the process completes the NYT trifecta for the day. Awesome! This is a pretty good piece, emphasizing the attempted 11 Sept 2001 – Iraq alchemy of blame.

Fire, Ready, Aim

The NYT op-ed pieces are on fire today. “Fact: The invasion of Iraq today is not vital to American security. Saddam Hussein has neither the intention nor the capability to threaten America, and is easily deterrable if he did.”

Just War – or a Just War?

Just War – or a Just War?

Jimmy brings his own brand of Just War theory to the table. I don't think he's a hardcore Walzerian, but at least it's being discussed.
