No.  It won't last.  It will go the rounds within the EU for many more years until finally it will happen.

The longer that is the better.  I for one do not want to see idea's chastised by a rediculous excuse for a governing body which is the EU.

Hopefully the farse that is the EU will vanish and stop soaking up the billions of GBP any day soon.

These are not political statements as such.  They are a reflection of the EU and it's insatiable desire to curb idea's and creativity.

Long term this will go through.  I personally feel this will ruin my computing experiences.  Simple things such as playing certain types of media through Linux will be made illegal! where is the logic/sense in that?

And the EU.  A bunch of men making stupid decisions around rediculous agenda's.

Remember the debate on the bend in banana's????

This is a forum.  If the subject arises then we can discuss almost anything. [almost]
