I am aware that this bill hasn't passed, but I think it's worthy of discussion.

Let them try... let them try. I doubt they could find and seize everything.

This about more than net piracy though, it's about cracking down on all sorts of piracy. Things like bootleg movies, or cheap knock-offs of purses and watches and stuff. I don't necessarily see it as a bad thing, as long as whatever agreements are reached screw the pirates and not the consumers.

Anyone ever use the pythagorean theorem?

Man, its too bad Pythagoras didn't patent that. Imagine how wealthy his decedents would be!
