The legislation would also have far-reaching effects on the software and computer industry, making almost all of today's software and hardware illegal and putting open-source software in a tight spot, he said. "If the only thing you want to do in your life is protect the content of the record companies and Hollywood, then the (proposed bill) is a great thing," he said. "If you put everybody in a box and locked them all in, then you wouldn't have murder either...For the entertainment industry to put this forward just shows how much of the economy they are willing to sacrifice for their ends." I hope these updates that I find are not annoying. If they are, I'll quit posting them. I just want to save the searching for you guys and It is good to have many sources for information on the topic.
