UK.gov rushes out broken 'Orphan Works' system as EU Directive comes in
A rough-shod coach and 4
Driven through at speed despite 'consultation' and against best advice of most of the industry it will (adversely) affect. I'm glad to see it's crash landed in a pile of farce.
John Cleese said the IT industry hate copyright but love patents and he's right.

Google has spaffed more cash on lobbying this year than Big Cable
Re: The only thing more staggering...
Mark Thomas has it right, politicians ought to have name badges of the companies they are involved with sewn onto their jackets so when they stand up to speak we can see who they are speaking on behalf of.

Vango force 10? Great tent. Until you have to de-snow it and carry it down off Blencathra in a sodden Karrimor rucksack, wearking a smock.

"back in the 90's, a woman posted a recipe to a cooking usenet group. Then she used that recipe in a book that she wrote. The owner of the usenet group went after that woman since all recipes posted to that usenet group were copyrighted and owned by the owner."
Unless and until you can prove that statement I call bullshit.
Some people really will come up with desperate rubbish to support the removal of *other people's* copyright.

Another U.S. state set to repeal rubber duck ban
I am pleased
That having sorted out all of their other significant problems, various departments of the US administration have finally arrived at a sensible outcome in the war on plastic duck racing. That said, I wouldn't be at all surprised if, on race day, some power crazed deputy came out blastin' like Yosemite Sam.

All the 'soldiers' in the retarded 'war on drugs' are wasting more of our taxes in their unwinnable 'war' than 'benefit scroungers' 'tax evaders' 'immigrants' and expenses troughing members of parliament combined.
70 years of 'war' and nothing to show for it but repetitive crap headlines and middle class hypocrisy.

Universal Credit: £40 MILLION and counting's been spaffed up the wall on useless IT gear
Forty million? Triple it and you're getting close.

I see no reason why in the case of IDS the above will be any different.

Re: "... workarounds to such bans are a few clicks away online."
@ Frank Ly "the majority of casual downloaders (in the general public) wouldn't be able to find them easily"
No, they just wait for a court order to force an ISP to announce the name of a newly banned service before using a proxy to access a site which previously they had never heard of. Well played, lawyers, well played.
Snappers attack Google Image problem, demand action from EC officials
Re: So... Sounds to me like bandwagon jumping
Also, not so much bandwagon jumping as trying to get on and stop the horse and carriage that Google is driving through the laws which previously protected many creative industries on their global mission to "do no evil"
Re: So... Sounds to me like bandwagon jumping
No, you don't understand the issue because it wasn't explained very well in the article. Photographers are seeing *massive* falloff in site visits. There's no need to visit a photographer's website when Google serves the image up for free.
The caveat on Google images "Images may be subject to copyright" is laughable as 99% of images *are* subject to copyright and Google well knows this.
Google ought to state:
"MOST if not all images *are* subject to copyright and you should contact the image owner to obtain permission if you wish to use the image. Failing to do so *will* leave you open to legal action"
But Google prefers to aid and abet.

You've been arrested for computer crime: Here's what happens next
Re: Remember
"when the courts find that you're case is built on thoughts alone."
The vast majority of cases which reach the court are built on what the defendant has said.
Without the assistance of the defendant, fewer cases would reach court.
Why help the police build a case? Why do their job for them?
It is for the police to build a case, a defendant is foolish if they help them.
Participating in a police interview is crass stupidity on the part of a defendant.
Remember
A suspect is under no obligation to leave a cell to be interviewed.
No interview is much better for a defendant than no comment.

Virgin Media suffers growing pains as Cable Cowboy daddy settles in
The 'cable cowboy' needs to get the metre eaters out to lay some more ducting in previously unprofitable areas and it really should increase the number of UBRs. Tenfold in some areas.
The more a service provider needs to spend on fault handling and call centre drones is correlated to the performance of the service they provide.

And I respect the position the developer took when he pulled it from CM.
It is galling to see what was initially free, crowd sourced, data being packaged for sale when those who gathered the data, made the sale possible through their efforts, receive next to nothing in return when the head honcho gets, say, a villa in Florida out of it. You know who you are.
