Hollywood wants to hack your PC

[KennyR]

I can't see this taking hold in Europe. Intentionally disabling a PC amounts to criminal damage, and if you allow commerce to do it how can you turn around and say its wrong for hackers to?

To be honest I can't see it succeeding in the USA either. Oh, whoops, you voted for Bush. Oh well, you deserve all you get ;-)

Vote Democrat next time (hehe).

What's wrong about it? You can't break a law to keep a law, ie. if I took down a annoying hacker's system to prevent him doing the same to me I could be prosecuted. And it makes no difference whether the parties are involved are companies or individuals. Hacking a computer is damage of private property and should be treated as such. I'm speaking about European law, of couse - I don't know about equivalent legislation in the US. Your property laws seems to be inconsistent.

And the Bush thing was a joke, of course (ok, a bad one ;-) ). And banning rock music I would agree with as a matter of taste (and that's another joke ;-) ).

Oh, and I believe that Republican personal freedoms are great unless you happen to be gay, coloured, or Moslem. And that's not a joke.

Hmm, nice sites. It seems Democrats suck too, you've made me realise that. But it seems the US 2-party system doesn't have any room for the left-wing and real freedoms. I mean, copyrighting jpegs and hacking computers in the name of law? Something's wrong there. And the worse part is, it effects the rest of the world, when we don't have any part in your politics at all.

Ever looked at http://www.whitehouse.org ? Nice site. It highlights the best in your country by lampooning the worst.

Oh by the way, the political roles of the Republicans and Democrats have almost completely swapped since Lincoln's time and his Proclaimation of Emancipation. Or at least the history books say so. Euro pop-tv proganda? You decide.
