which excludes most of the developed world, including the entirety of ...., much of Asia, and Australia.

Australia has a large banana industry. I expect South and SE Asia has the same.

Yes but you can opt for less pesticides.

Source? You made that up!

FTFA:

Wesselius, whose results have motivated him to eat more organic food,

So clearly the author of the paper thinks "organic food" has less pesticides.

Yep, really dodgy

The Microsoft Surface - it's a giant iPod touch - the size of a table. I can see why it wasn't such a hit.

> People can pirate music for free (we'll stick to just music, since TFA is about the RIAA), but feel guilty about the artist.

I have listened to music for free on the radio all my life and guess what, I've never felt guilty about it. These days I can borrow CDs from my local library if I want to. For free. Guilt free also. Could borrow from friends too, also free and guilt free. People want what they have always had, the abillity to listen to music for free.

The revenue of the music industry is increasing. It's just the revenue from selling music recorded onto plastic discs that is decreasing.

My local public library has CDs, DVDs, audio books, ebooks and of course dead tree books and magazines all available to borrow for free.

I often borrow books and read them for free, borrow DVDs and watch them for free.

Libraries have always been pirate havens.

Bing will still work and all the other search engines that support SOPA.

So what monopoly? You will still be able to search.

>demand is supposed to move prices ...

In a free market demand may be related to price. In a monopoly market the monopoly cartels choose whatever prices they want. Simple economics.

GM food can be harmful or not harmful depending on what genes are changed. It's like saying any food crop has been proved non-harmful.

This is rubbish science. Each GM variety needs to be tested spearately, for health and environmental effects. This is what the GM industry doesn't want to do.

Name some of them who have successfully taken Monsanto to court and won.

An digital music file is just a number. So yes, you can copyright numbers.

Not to forget that the Indians invented ZERO.

And the rest is government run and he's the head of the government. What else would they say?

Conflict of interest anyone?

Don't forget Cyber Ninjas.

You definitely can't see them!

Seeing Microsoft advising about security gives me that kind of nervousness. Especially when they are pointing the finger at someone else.

Let's see, Java runs on lots of platforms. Has it the same vulnerabilities on them? So we should all uninstall java and depend on Active-X? Which is now secure?
