Even though your post was off topic, I felt required to reply. You'll have to forgive me though I don't know HTML. The reason is the average person doesn't know about DMCA and things of that nature is because people are sheep and their Shepard hasn't told them what to think about it, so they have no opinion. Until our Government, the media and corporate America give them an opinion they will stare blankly when you mention anything out side their scope of reality. They feed us social narcotics to distract us from what is really going on in the world. Television, Sports, Celebrity's and God are all things used to distract us from the truth. They take us away from our horrible lives and comfort us into submission. Making it easier to control us and throw us around. As Americans we have become comfortable with not thinking for ourselves, after all isn't is easier to have someone do something for you than to do it yourself? This country is lazy, overweight and ignorant, is our fault? Is the Shepard's fault? No, we share the blame, they do it to us and we allow it to happen. As for the Qwest/MSN deal, I doubt anyone will care. The average person is too numb to the reality of being bought and sold like cattle. All they want is to surf where they are told to surf. And MSN now has that many more sheep to lead. Will it ever change? I doubt it. It would have to take something very drastic for the bulk of the flock to stray from it's master. But that's just how I see it.
