Didn't Greg O'Connor from the Police Association say that under the proposed legislation the Police would be forced to investigate each and every reported case of time-shifted recording?
They don't investigate car thefts or burglaries, so why should time-shifted recordings be especially privileged.

Both.
But also Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Virginia and Washington D.C. , according to this link

"So it looks like the bill will go forward with a provision that would outlaw using your PVR or VCR to record much of the schedule on TV One and TV2."
So that means that those of us who do not have broadband access to the net, would only be able to watch TV progs as they're being broadcast???!!! No time-shifting and no possibility of using the ondemand service?

A friend of mine who is a legal secretary in Oklahoma says it's illegal there to own more than two sex toys - that indicating intent to supply.

Always important to keep in mind clause 1 of our unwritten constitution.
"Laws of silliness, stupidity and downright unenforcibility shall be rendered void by the simple fact that the majority of the population will ignore them."
(Clause b does however state that cunning lawyers will endlessly extract many guineas from the halfwits who construct the nonsense in the first place - these legal chavs then go and spend the money on cheap wimmin and expensive wine, thereby stimulating the economy. Everyone's a winner)
Of course this tripe may simply be a gesture to a "Free" trade agreement with the land that sanity forgot.

Yeh, I was thinking of a Kim Basinger interview in Rolling Stone where she mentioned the possibility of arrest if she returned to her home state (either Alabama or Georgia) because she'd mentioned in an interview that in her younger days she'd blessed some unbelievably lucky young bloke with the said act.

Not that it matters, but I suspect it was Vanity Fair - prompting her father to send her a package containing an orange & some duct tape & a note to along the lines of: "Next time you feel the urge to mention giving oral sex in an interview in a major magazine, please put the orange in your mouth & apply the tape. Love Dad."

WTF Dad?

And thus enters the news story which dare not speak its name...

Yes, but someone will have to follow you home.

Hi Mum, look what followed me home, can I keep him?

No. Strictly speaking, the person who followed you home is not yours to keep. You simply have a licence to use him and you may not make a backup.

Do I own the medium he's stored in? Will they replace him if he breaks?
Besides, it depends...
He could be freely distributable for non-commercial use.
What if you obtain someone by peer-to-peer sharing?

Then you should see a doctor immediately and get tested.

Antibiotics & strict quarantine.

There's quite a few of them in some of the bars in town of a Friday night I'm told. Some of the commercial ones as well, but not so many. Although you'd want to make sure your antivirus systems were up to date...

Hey babe. Wanna make a derivative work?

But surely they'd be reliable if they'd been worked on by hundred of experts?

A thousand wiki-fiddlers can't be wrong...

I think you can share with a friend, but only for non-concurrent use.

... and tested by thousands of End Users.
Just read the licence carefully, otherwise you might discover that anything you produce using him belongs to the company. All very Rumpelstiltskin.

At university we had a network. We rapidly discovered there was a limit to how many could share at the same time.
