-hug- it sounds crazy.. i heard someone in the states was trying to pass a bill which would effectively give a police-like force legal ability to destroy any device or media which they believed to contain copyrighted material. crossing the border into mexico with an ipod? they could take it and destroy it without even saying why. and its an international thing! the US are leading it but..

i dunno yaru. this world is going to shit.

*hugs tight*

yeah,
though you know, people from the US are seriously saying they think the new Swedish law is horrible.
Google said they wouldn't buy any new servers from Sweden if the law was passed. I don't think the politicians have realized just what they have passed just yet, even though they've had it up for so long. Well, I hope they haven't realized it.
I think they have just effectively destroyed any chance of communication between other countries. And now they're talking about us having to pay to the telephone and ISP's so that they can get all the equipment they need for listening in on everything. It just sucks and I am mightily pissed off.
*hugs*
