    Police State.

    Wait a minuet, so if this man has been sent to prison for this offence, why hasn't anyone from the police been sent down for lying about, deformation, & character assassination spewed all over the media about Ian Tomlinson, Jean Charles de Menezes, & most recently Mark Duggan.

    an apology is all that is required from the police to justify their lies & the distress it has caused?

    MANY LAWS FOR US NONE FOR THEM, UK POLICE STATE GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER & SLANDER.

    why hasn't the UK gov especially tony blain, jeff hoon, jack straw, david miliband been sent down for lying about Iraq or rendition & torture.

    All parts of the Gowers Report that benefited freedom or benefited anyone by the BPI, MPAA was ignored the first time around so why do we have to pay to repeat the process, get get the Gowers Report out of the bin and actually read it instead of bending over for the corporate shills.

    police state

    and the beneficial side effects are very apparent.

    http://www.boingboing.net/2010/09/21/mpaa-actas-censoring.html

    The MPAA has updated one of its more ridiculous pro-censorship arguments; five years ago, they were telling lawmakers that blocking P2P would help block child pornography. Now they've presented at an information meeting in Mexico on ACTA, the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, a secret, far-reaching copyright treaty that contains provisions for China-style censoring firewalls for every country. The MPAA wants these national firewalls to block sites like The Pirate Bay, but the case they've made to lawmakers for it is: "Bring in a censoring firewall to block piracy and you can use it to shut off sites that embarrass your government, like Wikileaks."

    You can almost imagine the MPAA rep dry-washing his hands and licking his lips like a grand vizier manipulating a gullible sultan as he utters these words. During the Bush years, the MPAA recruited a bunch of Republican stalwart, ultra-conservative foot-soldiers (one of them told me that he believed in the Young Earth and Creationism). I can imagine that if you're one of these square-jawed rock-ribbed types, you could believe that the government had the right to cover up murder and torture by blocking Wikileaks.

    Who are the corporations behind the bill, the MPAA RIAA

    lets not for get who is actually behind the MPAA - RIAA, these are the companies that need to be targeted and boycotted into changing their ways, purchase only 2nd hand media and do not purchase anything branded sony, why allow the fecktards to dictate Orwellian hardware DRM designed to take away rights of ownership not to stop piracy, anymore.

    Name and shame the companies as all the **AA trade group name is for is to protect the corporate globalists from bad press.


    RIAA, CRIA, SOUNDEXCHANGE, BPI, PRS, IFPI, ASCAP, Ect:

    # Sony BMG
    # Warner Music Group
    # Universal Music Group
    # EMI

    MPAA, MPA, FACT, AFACT, Ect:

    # Sony Pictures
    # Warner Bros. (Time Warner)
    # Universal Studios (NBC Universal)
    # The Walt Disney Company
    # 20th Century Fox (News Corporation)
    # Paramount Pictures Viacom—(DreamWorks owners since February 2006)


    And these companies are all owned by these few, these are the companies that dictate our culture by promoting theirs & blocking indie artists:

    # BMG (sony)
    # Time Warner
    # Viacom
    # News Corp (Fox)

    If Sony payola (google it) wasn't bad enough to destroy indie competition you have this:

    Is it justified to steal from thieves? READ ON.



    RIAA Claims Ownership of All Artist Royalties For Internet Radio
    http://slashdot.org/articles/07/04/29/0335224.shtml

    "With the furor over the impending rate hike for Internet radio stations, wouldn't a good solution be for streaming internet stations to simply not play RIAA-affiliated labels' music and focus on independent artists? Sounds good, except that the RIAA's affiliate organization SoundExchange claims it has the right to collect royalties for any artist, no matter if they have signed with an RIAA label or not. 'SoundExchange (the RIAA) considers any digital performance of a song as falling under their compulsory license. If any artist records a song, SoundExchange has the right to collect royalties for its performance on Internet radio. Artists can offer to download their music for free, but they cannot offer their songs to Internet radio for free ... So how it works is that SoundExchange collects money through compulsory royalties from Webcasters and holds onto the money. If a label or artist wants their share of the money, they must become a member of SoundExchange and pay a fee to collect their royalties.'"

    police state

    the corporations own the government this bill will not be changed for the greater benefit of the people. the only good point is that recently the government announced that appeals will be free, but only at first.

    http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/09/14/vaizey_dea/

    However, the Department for Business will closely monitor the free appeals system, and reserve the right to introduce "small fees" later, because it "risks the possibility of large numbers of unnecessary appeals".

    guilty until proven innocent and only if you can pay for your legal representation. it also may be worth noting that the appeals panel are to be paid for, and hand picked by the media industry. what the media industry want to avoid is our legal system, as there are already laws in place to deal with copywrite infringement but they dont want to pick up the bill, they want as they are getting the tax payer to foot the bill which is why they have continually tried to turn a civil matter into a criminal one.

    the corporations/government, as they are one in the same, have effectively rewritten our rights on, guilty until proven innocent and we have the right to be judged by 12 of our peers.
