So if MS' s XBone records you and saves the data on its corporate servers, it 'clearly' becomes business data and the government can then spy on you without pesky lawsuits or constitutional hassles.
Judge is a twisting cunt and just shafted all Americans big time.
They'll have to switch to low-alcohol Vodka mixed with decaffeinated diet red-bull.
The law is a load of COCK!
News sites should quit doing this, Russia is a land mass and can not ban anything, the asshats in the State Duma otoh might come up with crap like this.
'USA thinks it should invade North Korea'
See how that works, propagandist news style that is 99% lie.
Thinking about it, the waves travel like light and so should simply be visualised as another colour of light with many point sources.
Hate speech next, not what you'd consider to be hate speech, but what the gov't drones or worse, some company the hired to do the list, considers to be hate speech.
Don't like the way the Israeli's are treating the Palestinians? There's a good chance that many websites discussing Palestine will be flagged as anti-Semite and blocked (never mind that Palestinians are also Semites).
Won't happen? It's already happening, GiffGaff, a mobile phone + data service blocked sites (www.gilad.co.uk and wikipedia psilocybin desktop site!!!) and said I have to prove I'm 18 to access them. They say they have a legal requirement to do this?!?!
Keys for discs can be revoked if I'm reading the last line of this section correctly:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Access_Content_System#Encryption
Software players get revoked from time to time as their keys get discovered.

Hardware players can be revoked just by putting a newer disc in the player, the player updates its firmware from the disc and effectively commits suicide.
because it would open the floodgates for anyone convicted of any crime subsequently legalized to ask for the same.
??? no excuse, open those floodgates, if something was legalised then the govt f**ked up in the first place by making said thing illegal.
I'm glad not to have a Bluray drive or any bluray discs. Every disc and drive bought supports software patents many which are of course of dubious validity. And that money supports further draconian DRM and more bribes to the congresses of the world. Not to mention both drives and discs can be bricked by new discs, firmware updates, internet checks etc. Part of the reason I never bought into this junk is because you can never be sure the 'content protection path' is going to work with your hardware. It's just not worth it.
Unbelievable, google have lost all control of their senses, why:
This is not an invention, it's simply doing something, there's nothing whatsoever clever about it.
An invention is supposed to be a non-obvious (to those in the relevant profession) way of getting something done. This clearly does not meet that criteria.
Post also applies to most other software patents.
people already have gmail accounts and Google makes it painless
Gmail in browser on android: unusable, mobile version: all features stripped out, desktop version: doesn't work because the stupid compose email box insists on moving itself off-screen.
Android email app and gmail app: both suck bad, lacking in features and never f**king remember or offer email addresses which I have emailed 10 times already.
Gmail on android It is not 'painless' to use it is an awful nightmare to make emails with (Galaxy Note 2).
They say they didn't know the president was on-board, I'm calling BS on that - why did they refuse the plane into their airspace? no explanation.
They are liars, the apology stinks.
