Dell seeks damages from man called Dell | The Register

This is such bad PR for Dell the computer company.

I bought a Dell laptop once and though I tried I just wasn’t comfortable with it and sold it asap. Never buy or even look at another for that reason. With this stupid lawsuit they would be on my big biz to avoid list even if they weren’t already.

Chron.com | HPD may add cameras to ranks (with audio)
“If you’re not doing anything wrong, why should you worry about it?” Hurtt told reporters.

Seems like I remember a simular line from George Orwell’s 1984. This mindset is just a little scary.

Treehugger: Waste of Packaging: Individually Wrapped Prunes
Can you think of a good reason why prunes should be individually wrapped?

But someone at SunSweet apparently did. So now you can throw away the wrapping on each and every one instead of just the extra layer on the sealed box. Stupid!

National Forest For Sale! Bush Admin. To Sell To Highest Bidder… | The Huffington Post

You gotta wonder just what they are thinking. $$$$$$$ is my guess. And to hell with the future generations. But I keep forgetting, these folks think that GOD is gonna come and take them straight into heaven via the Raptuer so there isn’t any need to worry about future generations.

Techdirt:Someone May Want To Explain To Record Execs How Little Power They Really Have
If Warner pulls out of iTunes, then people will simply get their songs for free on file sharing networks or just not listen to Warner songs at all. In either situation, Warner loses… big time

—

And all the artists signed with Warner lose big time and will then have a reason to sue Warner and hopefully be able to break their contracts and go indie…

Techdirt:FedEx Throws A DMCA Fit Over Creative Use Of Their Boxes
FedEx easily could have left this guy alone — or, even better, encouraged him. It would have made for a great, amusing, advertisement for FedEx. Instead, they look like a bunch of bullies.

And VERY stupid bullies at that!

Glad to hear this – NOT. Guess it means that I find another way to ship stuff as I REFUSE to support with my $$$ companies that support the DCMA.
