Are you fucking insane? Go to the local butcher and get meat for a fraction of that and it will probably be a lot better quality too(these type of restaurants are rip-offs 9 out of 10) , making steak is like the easiest thing you can do in the kitchen and it only takes you like 10 min. Eating proper food is not something for the rich, just get yourself educated on food.

Google is already the most subpoenaed company in the US. It's the greatest christmas gift ever for the government and intelligence services, all the data centralized in one place you don't need to do some hard searching anymore just demand the data from google,

Not only will it not help it would put them in way bigger trouble. EU directive ..? says that even though companies are allowed to let 3rd parties handle their customer data it's is not allowed for that data to leave the EU economic region(EU+ Norway, Switzerland etc) Google Analitics might be a little illegal, hosting all your stuff in a non-European country is definitely very illegal.

As it is now competitors cannot scan their own books, it's against the law. Each party should now negotiate their own settlement with the authors guild and since the authors guild has absolutely zero incentive to do that this is a classic anti-trust case. Ofcourse the only real solution here is to stop these stupid class action lawsuits and just reform copyright law. Internet archive and project Gutenberg are at this a lot longer and they would've scanned lot's more books if they where allowed to.

What about the privacy of the victim?

This only works if Amazon is the only content provider though. I dont know any author that sell their books exclusively via Amazon so the only thing you'd have to do is to get a copy from a different publisher.

Fewer!

Because they have a different philosophy than the EU. The EU has been the leading anti-trust regulator in the world for a long time now simply because they believe it's in societies best interest to force companies to compete whereas the US believes more in the innovative power of unregulated companies and thus have a more laissez-faire attitude.

OpenSSH is developed solely for OpenBSD, to not bloat the code, then they have a separate team working on making it portable to other OSes

Microsoft would have to restructure a part of their OS to make that possible but with 'turning IE off' you can effectivly hide IE from the user completely so it's not a bad deal, the average user will never know it's still there.

To get the new ipods filled completely it would cost you a couple million dollars. If you really paid for all your music you must have a small collection and you basically waste 90% of the thing with empty space.

... They want to replace the ministry of defence with the ministry of feast and use to money currently allocated to new defence systems to provide the people with free beer. You really want to be associated with that?

You don't get it Microsoft wants to be able to scan their own books too. They don't want to use books scanned by google. Letting someone else foot the bill is not the issue here.

Yes. It is called copyright law. I don't understand why people keep repeating this strange talking point. Copyright prevent companies from digitalizing books, Google will be the sole company exempt from this through a class action lawsuit. Of course theoretically other companies could try to get a similar agreement with the writers guild but what incentive does the writers guild have to renegotiate the same agreement with other companies? None I say. In fact it would go against their interest so it's a classic case of a monopoly and anti-trust legislation is preventing this.

Extradition happens when when I commit a crime in another country and then flee. In this case the guy did something in another country and the US still seeks to impose their laws on the man that's insane. If you do something in Texas witch happens to be illegal in Germany is Germany going to seek extradition?
