category: residue [glöplog]
Hi all,
in the US the government tries to regulate the IntErNet see https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=m2mzMcRPO2I, IP Act and CISPA.
I've seen laws in France about that too: Dadvsi, Hadopi, Lopsi 1 and 2, in Italy with Romani law, Sinde law in Spain, Digital Economy Act in UK, ...
In what practical / real ways those laws impact you everyday? Which videos / software / site have you seen been taken down? Please state the country and the law(s) impacting you.
Thanks.

These laws have made me aware of the need for strong encryption techniques, such as randomly capitalising the word InTErNet.

I don't care, I'm watching demos and there's no impact on the demoscene.

I look after policecars every day, and if they drive in the direction of my house, but that's it.
These new anti-trolling laws will put a real damper on things for sure.
Thanks a lot for confirming those laws are a smoke screen for politicians uselessness.
The demo is on the way don't worry about that.

All of them, everyday. That is why I'm running for parliament with the Dutch Pirate Party.
Everyday sees a new example of a broken judicial system that is trying to adjust to a world that changes faster than any lawmakers could have ever foreseen. I'm not saying the Pirate Bay is the solution, it merely serves as an insight into a broken copyright/patent system that is beyond repair in it's current form.

The Internet has certainly changed our world tremendously. I think that people tend to adapt to these changes and forget what their lives were like in the time before. The easy access to information alone has sharpened people's awareness and understanding of the world.
I recall I mostly enjoyed playing games and trying to program my own games until the advent of the Internet. Then, with some time, reading became my favourite activity. This may have harmed my productivity, but it has given me insights I wouldn't have had otherwise.
People are however a bit naive regarding the spread of information about themselves. There is no privacy on the Internet! Everything you post on the Internet can, in principle, be read by every single person on this planet. It is astonishing what people have, most of all in the past, put about themselves on their personal homepages. Stuff that is usually kept private.
