That's one of those things that makes you sorry to be an American...that some of your fellow countrymen are this stupid.

I saw that on the BBC news site. What a prick.

And what's more, he has a website, on which you can download his music.

You ****ers voted him in. Now deal.

And if they ever tried to nuke my computer using those facist American laws, I'd be suing the US government for all sorts of ****. Vandalism, hacking, emotional stress.........

You are right.
Unfortunately, they would appeal that to the ground until all you get is a box of cracker jacks and an American flag

Hmmm. To stop Peer-2-Peer stuff, they'd have to set up a client or Super-Node that'd give fake files along with the warning trigger when someone tried to get them.

So all someone would have to do would be to re-code a little of KaZaA-Lite so that when someone recieved a warning, it would broadcast that user/super-node's info to everyone across the network, triggering a massive DoS attack. And once they crashed, ban that IP and computer from linking to any Super-Node, thus removing them from the network. Or better yet, bounce back a kill-signal.

There will come a point when the p2p community decides that the time has come to end all this passive "We'll just evade them" crap and start launching attacks on those trying to down the network.

i don't think that's what he means, his plans sound ore aloing the lines of a DoS attack or virus stile job. nasty, especially if you are on a changing IP, so that someone else will get the crap for what you dl'd.

anyway, i doubt thyis will pass, and if it will, and some PC in Europe dies permanently, and someone sues, things will get interesting to say the very least.

[color=66ff00]Why does everyone always get annoyed when something like this pops up? It's never going to be actioned, look at what other attempts at stopping filesharing have resulted in; nada, nothing, squat.

Every time some idiot american politician voices an idea like this everyone goes nuts, some low level of hysteria kicks in and it's a little boring by now.

Think of it logically, the number of people who are attempting to stop file sharing are few and have limited resources. The number of people who want to share media (copyrighted or otherwise) is vast, also the file sharers have the greater level of computer literacy (judge by the methods the RIAA etc. attempt to use to stop us). The anti file sharing crowd are continually playing catchup as newer methods of filesharing are created, this isn't going to change, necessity is the mother of invention as they say; anti file sharing measures are creating necessity in droves. Napster and it's ilk have been sucessfully shut down, most people see this as negative but it's ultimately positive as it has offered lessons on how to prevent the same thing happening again.

File sharing will win.

Hmm...

This law will not get through Congress.  I can't seem to imagine a software that can remotely destroy a system.  It can't do that to hardware, only software.  So we can have multiple firewalls to ward it off...

By the way, Utah is a Mormon theocracy, which is not constituted in the normal Christian denominations.  (We consider them a cult.)

I'd like to know how they could "destroy" your computer though, becuase as far as I could tell the only way you could do that would be via the hardware itself and the last time I checked there isn't any virus software that could physically destroy hardware.
