Unless it's proprietary hardware, it will be circumvented pretty quickly.

The music industry is so large, nobody will be able to defeat them or their pack of lawyers in court. Napster was supposed to be a revolution, but all it did was put all of the ind…

I've never heard this... and people should stop thinking that a satirical comedy show is somehow based on facts. To me, your race and gender aren't special. You are a person, just …

Climate change is a fact. The causes are just theories based on computer models. To say that it's a fact and needs no further study is not only anti-intellectual, it’s criminal. I …

Just like with music and file sharing, this will not hurt the large corporations. It will only hurt the researchers that depend on these papers for funding and make it more difficu…

"Misperceiving Bullshit as Profound Is Associated with Favorable Views of Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Conservatism" There is just as much bullshit on the liberal side. All I need to do …
