Comment Slag off, Quit hiding behind licenses (Score 1) 499

Some one tell Dolby to slag off. Too many companies are doing this lately. They pulled the same BS when the DVD code was linked to, directly to their own site, they threatened to sue the webmaster pointing a link to it. This is no different than telling someone where the stars of Hollywood live, or how many pieces of artwork Bill Gates has in his house, or perhaps even a police speedtrap resulting in the public becoming more aware and prompting local speeding to be reduced just from the information being available, and no one has to profit. Too often businesses release propriatary information publicly and expect it to remain private. They hide behind the guise of licenses and courts to strongarm our freedom of speech. They're excersing their rights by providing information about some illegal source. Sounds like they're providing a valuable public service in my book.
