Be afraid, be very afraid ...

Afraid of who ? Of rich white guys who run this country that dont know a damn thing how technology works.

Thats right Sen. Fritz Hollings (D-South Carolina) introduced the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act (CBDTPA), Which if you dont know what this is, you should. Go check out Wired for more details.

Walt Disney and the MPAA seem to be its biggest supporters, but if this law gets pass it could seriously hamper the Playstation 3, so maybe a heavyweight like Sony can help back the rest of the intelligent folks on this planet that are trying to stop this bill from becoming law.

The funny thing about this law is that it relies on someone to come up with an anti-piracy method that actually works. So since that is a nearly impossible task maybe it will help this bill to fail.

If this bill does pass, I am going to declare war on South Carolina ! Who's with me ? C'mon they werent with us back in the 1850's they wanted to ditch us just so they could own people to do their dirty work. Doesnt look like the IQ of South Carolina has increased that much since then.
