SonicDragon Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 Man, i don't know whether to be sad or angry! Its so completely ridiculous! I urge all you here, if you don't already, to go to www.eff.org and take action against bills like these allong with the countless other crazy things our government is proposing. Legistlation like this, that outlaws firewalls, vpns, routers, etc. have already been passed in some states. If we don't act now, it will pass in others. It has been proposed here in MA, but i have not heard any news on it other than that. I hope all goes well in TN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 Ignorance and greed is going to kill the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Let's hope I'm right about this, Stryder. Because I think: Nothing can kill the Internet. It's like a runaway freight train, and you better not get in front of it because it'll roll right over you. When push comes to shove, these stupid Super DMCA bills will be tested in court and found to be ludicrous. But it's going to take the might of the tech industry to make that happen.And I agree with all those who are concerned about it. SonicDragon is right. We have to band together to fight this.-- Scot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
