Who is resposnsible for the infringement, if any is made during p2p sharing? If it is the maker or the operator of p2p software, then Xerox and all photocopier makers are responsible for massive copyright infringement. b. Must the technlology that allows infringement be supressed? If yes, then knives will have to be outlawed, since they can be used to murder. Same for photocopy machines, cd recorders, printing presses, radio, television, etc. It cannot be simpler.

More money, power, and control for a chosen few. Even gay marriage is a simple economic issue (big biz just don't wanna pay the benefits) that the bush admin has cloaked under a veil of moral outrage. The media cabal is perhaps the biggest power base in the USA (world maybe) so it is only natural that the bush camp and it's followers would align themselves with it. It will be a dark day for most of us, but in a twisted way I can't wait to see it when most of these rich bush backers (and the REALLY stupid poor republicans) find that they are not among those chosen few and have been cast out among us undesirables.
