“Government backs down on cutting off filesharers
Court orders now needed
By Alexandra Pullin
Wednesday, 21 October 2009, 16:24

CULTURE SECRETARY Ben Bradshaw has revealed that, due to strong opposition, measures to tackle illegal filesharing will be watered down.

Under the new scheme copyright holders will need a court order before they can punish persistent illegal filesharers.

This differs from the action that had been suggested by business secretary Lord Mandelson earlier this year, coincidentally just after having spent time as a guest of music publisher David Geffen in Greece.

Princess Mandy had said that Internet service providers would be forced to hand over to music companies and film studios information on customers who used illegal filesharing sites so that they could take action.

This original tactic was seen by many as being too heavy-handed. Now those targeted would also have the right to appeal.

Bradshaw told the House of Common’s culture, media and sport committee that this measure is to protect innocent people who could be cut off from the Internet ‘willy nilly’, merely if they were accused.

Do you know what yout talking about there boowho?

the people that so called voted for the PM ARE the labour MPs in his party, no one else.

they wanted him as their party leader, just as they wantign b-liar before, how he twisted their arms to get their vote is another matter OC…

incase you cant be bothered to click the links and read on on ORG
http://www.openrightsgroup.org/

they are one of the few along with NoDPI etc that are fighting to stop mass surveillance and the like of DPI for commercial profit such as phorm …

“Election Watch 2007 – Devote your day to democracy!
Becky Hogge, 07 March 2007

Doing anything exciting on election day? ORG is looking for volunteers to “devote their day to democracy” and become ORG’s Electoral Commission accredited election observers for the e-voting pilots on Thursday 3 May.

We’ll provide you with full instructions on the kind of things that will be expected of you on the day. We’ll also supply a factsheet of what to look out for in each of the different pilots. We’ll expect you to be travelling around the pilot area during the day, and to turnaround a quick report for us afterwards.

If you live in or around the eleven pilot areas (or are willing to travel there) and you’d like to help out, please let us know. Sign up to our pledge on Pledgebank – we’re using a beta feature that lets you input which of the pilot areas you’re volunteering for. The image on the right shows where volunteers have already signed up.

[...] Thanks to everyone who made the event run so smoothly, thanks to all the local supporters who showed up afterwards to celebrate with us and thanks to Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust Ltd for giving us the financial support to stage the event….

The important thing when reading about a survey is to check:

Who paid for it?

That ususally explains the findings.

Surveys is among the biggest scams going today…
”

that may be true or not , but the thing your missing is a YouGov poll commissioned by anyone IS the standard by which all polls are set.

if its good enough for the Govt it cant be said to be not good enough for others such as The ORG.

after all the ORG are the people that are fighting for your rights on a very tight budget they get from ordinary people, infact its run by people just like You, you dont like how its run then you can put some time and effort in and change it.

OC any elected MP can be chosen to become there partys PM if they win the most seats…

so make sure the pirate party have condidates in all the local seats and these one of candidates could be YOU, if you make the effort….. and join the party ASAP and organise the mass action TODAY.

What exactly do YOU gain by NOT Voting ?

you are aware that if hyatheticly you and every single person in the UK able to vote, actually voted for say the UK pirate party, that means they and they alone will get all local seats on the councils and nore so ALL the seats of the house of commons, and so become the leading party.

that means they would have no choice but to come up with a working real agenda for change.

if the existing PMs do not get local election seats they cant be in the Govt, thats how the sytems works… SO every single vote not cast is a win for the sitting PM as noones voted them off, your in favour of the old PMs then i take it.

so much so you cant be bothered to take 10 minutes to walk to your local voting station and actually vote on the day for say the pirate party or put it another way, not the labour or conservatives….

or perhaps you have a real convincing reason not to vote assuming you currently have the right to do so OC.

a non vote is a vote for the current MP nad opposition party…

That should be a large enough portion to have a good idea of the general consensus of Britain on this matter. Also it really can’t be biased since the people choose to sign up and the polls consist of most of the people on the site.

Hypocritical douchebag.

Are they aware that you can watch southpark freely on their official website southparkstudios.com? And we all know if you can watch it then it is copyable….

“The Wi-Fi Alliance is nearing completion of a new specification to enable Wi-Fi devices to connect to one another without joining a traditional home, office, or hotspot network.”

Quote:
“A side benefit of Wi-Fi Direct is that it can operate at higher speeds and greater distances…”

From what is understood, The Pirate Bay are in a bunker that is also apparently sovereign, and that focuses on ‘libre communications’… What if they became like that kiosk, only more powerful and using amplified wifi-direct broadcast, perhaps like an ISP might?

Sadly in the UK being a MP does give you the right to be PM.

We do not vote for the PM, we vote for our local MP and whoever ends up with a majority could pick whoever they want as PM…as is currently the case.

…Yes it is a sh*t system, but there are much worse.

Besides being almost unreadable, this is nonsense. You might as well say a witness that saw you stab someone “took away our right non self-incrimination”. Besides, that right does not exist in the UK.

For Anonymous@23
Define democracy? 49% governed by 51%

Rabbit80@36
Don’t forget the silver surfers’

I’m pretty sure the poll itself will be wrong by more than 2%

But hang on, TF you shouldn’t be saying 70% when its not quite 70%, bit misleading.

i think you actually find i was making the same point if not as eloquently as you, try active reading next time

@ reasoned, my friend i got a lot of time for you and your posts, but, the Guardian? ouch!

There’s some information about YouGov’s methodology here: http://www.yougov.co.uk/about/about-methodology.asp

Probably the elderly generation who don’t know what the internet is and think that all of the younger generation are criminals.
