Antipiracy bill targets technology

Read article

A bill that Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah proposed that could potentially make Replay TV, DVD burner, or even VRC illegal. Same person also suggested last year that "copyright holders should be allowed to remotely destroy the computers of music pirates." Is this guy even NORMAL? Just wait till he sees his kids computer among the first to blow up. *Rolls eyes* Always love to hear these bills that can set US further backward in technology.

I have a suggestion, why not just ban the internet altogether? Let's eradicate the problem from the root! That way people can make as many copies as they want, but there will be no means to distribute them. No more peer-to-peer, no more ebay. Who cares if we are back to living in the fifties. By the way, he's Mormon, women are suppose to stay home and barefoot and pregnant anyway. It's the way God intended.

Technological issues should only be countered with more advance technology. Once we've decided to go backward in technology, we are just unleashing a monster.
