Granted AG cliams to have quit using the internet explorer wr-writer/hacker that buddies up with ie and spontaneously throws pop-ups and cr@p at you...

And there is a way to find kazaa lite, with no spyware attached.  The regular one does about the same that AG used to except that you don't even need to have ie running (since your desktop is an extension of it) and an active net connection to throw things at you to download.  (All I had running was a telnet application, sure as hell doesn't have any browsing functions in it!)

Exactly.

The point being that when all these movements are taken into consideration plus the general trend towards globlisation and huge metanational conglomorate corporations, you start realising that out rights and consitutions have already been trampled on, and its rather too late to go through official channels to set things to rights again.

Unfortunately things aren't gonig to get better before they get worse, and currently the only thing you can do if you don't agree with these pocket-lining imbeciles is to make damn sure everyone knows about whats' going on.

Which is, of course, the biggest problem of all.  Nobody knows, and when you try to tell them they switch brain functions off and stop listening because most individuals are conditioned to be disinterested in politics and world affairs.

Quite interesting in itself how well the whole thing hangs together for those large corporates, isn't it?

Gnutella is an open protocol Silly :p There's loads of cliens for it. Pick a source forge project that hasn't been super hyped and you get the same network without the associated ****e that Limewire and Morpheus bring (gnutella) and Kazza (Kaza Network).

I hope the RIAA DOES destroy the music industry...and hopefully the rest of the media industries too.  Then we can rebuild things and try and shake off the corruption for a while.
