>> A law that says "you can't make money from this" doesn't mean "anyone can copy your stuff for free".

very different yet related questions ...

A) first big question is the legal rights of the estate, is it subject to the laws enacted against the Nazi by an Allied court ... that's a huge hurtle

B) does the estate have the rights to sell, trade, barter, gift and contract. not always do they have all 5.

C) the estate seems to have the right to have a copyright of the material ... that leads to only " ownership and reproduction and distribution "

What I think they want is a gift which would be 'contract without profit'
Barter would be contract of equal exchange in the future
trade would be contract of equal exchange now
sell means dispose with monetary asset received ( liquid cash )

>>Are we being civil to each-other on the internet? Since when has that been allowed? Particularly on Slashdot.

look at the discussion on this thread ( our little section )
being civil is the top form of discussion.
and everyone is working at the top of their game

I've learned more in this little chat than the rest of the threads

sorry, that's a fallacy.
Under siege might not be a good word

but here are some examples of what I am trying to present

bananas ( we have no bananas today ) long modern history of food shortages

Potatoes, real good example of improper management lead to the Irish famine, blamed on the virus ( which is a factor ) but the restrictions of import / export from Ireland lead to it.

Corn as a stable product ... biodiesel changed all that
production history variations and the market did respond well to it.

Rice as a stable product ... subject to weather issue, one good flood can wipe out %'s of the worlds production
storms and percentage of damage http://environmentalresearchwe... ( I think it might be a tainted new source, but I feel the idea of damage of crops is presented properly )
panic and rumors caused http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2...

You forgot to take 1 issue into your factoring ... food security. a country that goes under siege will starve unless they food security.

I think if we ( as a civilization ) get to that point which we see in the tv show star trek, then your conclusion is much more valid.

mine still works.
but the anti magic starts failing when i add more acid into my drink

Why? A will is a will. and has a long history. so any settlement on the estate might have been placed in an allied fund. if the diary was sold then the asset provenance was moved. Nazi held, to allied held to someone new ...
this chain is highly important in art and as we speak, new looted are is always being discovered. That chain of ownership is very important. That's why Hermann Göring went to a lot of trouble to get all his art ( using brutality ) with a legal chain of title.

don't know, but their are similar laws prior to the sun of sam laws in the late 60's and i think in the late 50's too

off topic indirectly : Doctor something or another ( the real bad nazi doctor in a death camp ) has a ton of research done on his victims, including brain fluid amounts. in the 90's it was ruled that data could not be used. for what reason I'll never know. but the data was valid data.

I don't think this would apply.
dead guy before capture.
private family journals belonging to an estate
"crime does not pay royalty's" did not come into effect I think until the late 50's.

Not sure if I failed....
I was showing how a structure could be used to go around.

while the tax evasion I should have explained more

I will say this, YOU WRITE real good. I enjoyed reading what you wrote.
the voice I used was tonal to aggressive
nice read...

While you are right. the point is more to focus data retention and privacy law locally.
Now all hell has to break loose in order for one side to learn or get data from the other.

I think in the MS case, it was held in MS's own servers and not a separate entity servers in which MS had access.

I have a very general answer to this which if you research will lead to the exact answer.
Companies in the USA are allowed to have subsidiaries ( look up the structure of any international bank )
Subsidiaries are governed by local law and pass the profits up the chain.

the government can not request a subsidiary outside of it's jurisdiction to hand over personal information
( maybe some other things, but not personal information )

to carry this issue to the extreme ...
Please see what Argentina did to citi bank recently (2015)
Please see what NY ( 1996 to 2002 ) and the USA (last 6 years) did to Swiss banking
NY told the Swiss ( in summary ) If you got nazi loot you can not do business with NY, Swiss banking replied by opening subsidiaries to handle NY business
Swiss replied to the USA ... here are all the Americans that have accounts with us, you figure out who is evading taxes.

there goes that idea.... makes sense.
So no net from below
no snares or loops

How about some sort of air bags that deploy from the side of the deck, just to stable it, don't have to last long, just long enough to keep it centered for a few seconds.

yes, history shows that salt mines made the money. and processing of sea salt takes some time.
but smoked fish might last a long while
