The bottom line is if you're going to start throwing wild accusations and hypotheses around, give a reasonable basis for such and I would take it seriously.

Well even if you don't care about this being a small issue, other people do have a problem with it and it's not just something they can turn a blind eye to.
I'll even dissect that letter to make it easier:
The bill would effectively criminalize the built-in music sharing features of Apple's iTunes, the market-leading online music store, as well as uses of WiFi technology. Additionally, HR 4077 could make the use of copyrighted works for criticism and education a crime.
Oops, don't give a hell, I don't use either
The Bill Takes Sharing My Information Too Far: The bill directs the FBI to facilitate the sharing of information among law enforcement agencies, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and copyright owners concerning copyright infringement on the Internet. Essentially, content companies want ISPs to keep a database on their subscribers' online activities. It is disconcerting that at a minimum, the bill does not specify: what information ISPs may track; what information ISPs may share; or one single procedure that government agencies and / or copyright owners must comply with to gain access to the information. This is a violation of my privacy and my constitutional rights. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act set up specific procedures for obtaining information on alleged copyright infringers—procedures that protect my rights to privacy and due process. HR 4077 puts my constitutional rights in the hands of large content companies.
Uh oh, what are they going to do? Throw me in jail because I made a post saying what Mman says has no real basis? Guilty as charged!
If other people have a problem with the bill, that's fine. I'm not belittling them in any way. But I don't take issue with it, so I'm not going to fight in your crusade, unless you give me a good reason to.
Because we pride this country on being free? Because if we let the goverment invaid our lives what is to stop them from taking it to the next step? You have countries out there, like Singapore, that lock away people for up to two years for just suspicion of terrorism without any proof what so ever.
Then your posts have no use for this thread. ;)Quote:

I like black people. Hanging them DOES affect me. Comparing these two things is ridiculous and disrespectful.
Anyway, this has gotten out of hand. If anyone has a good reason to give me, by all means do, but until then, bye
