WASHINGTON–A prominent Senate Democrat on Wednesday said federal and local police should use custom software to monitor peer-to-peer networks for illegal activity, and he wants to spend $1 billion in tax dollars to help make that happen.

At an afternoon Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing about child exploitation on the Internet, Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) said he was under the impression it’s “pretty easy to pick out the person engaged in either transmitting or downloading violent scenes of rape, molestation” simply by looking at file names. He urged use of those techniques by investigators to help nab the most egregious offenders”.

Do some research folks. Biden is the really dangerous one and he’s getting big donations to lead the charge.

i have it on good authority that America will burn if they touch that man. this is not Friday, November 22, 1963

“Hezbolloh backs Obama.”

Um, no. Where’d you get that block of lies from? FAUX News?

then I will laugh at all of you idiots..

seriously, get a life, he doesnt give 2 shits about file sharers, and will ban it given the chance..

im a file sharer myself, but you people are ignorant.

If a ‘human’ is found to be born without conscience, how can said individual rule over other human beings on a macroscopic scale objectively and responsibly?

Filesharing is clearly the next step in the universal (human) scope of cultural expansion and development, but it is less important by itself than the maintenance of civil liberties in general and the prevention of a growing fascist pathocracy in the US and beyond.

We have yet to see what will play out in America (Amerika?), so extend your kindness to all the purveyors of reason in regards to the potential (and likely) victims-to-be-had in Iran alongside the simple majority of file-sharers worldwide.

The only ‘hope’ I personally have to lend is that Obama is not assassinated before he decides whether or not to do the right thing… but if so then we had all hope not to end up with a warhawk like Biden as president. Even with the initial crisis of civil war potentially averted in the US, I wonder how long it will be before the county implodes in its own hubris and awful policy…

So keep on a-sharin’ those files!
Information is and always will be absolutely free!

I informed you earlier about Joe Bidden. You better have checked his hostory and facts. Too bad you did not, TF.

And let me guess, you’re that smart that you realised what most people haven’t?

So let me get this straight… the RIAA hire a old Republican lobbiest who continues to support the Republicans… this is massive news against McCain. Dear God he gave McCain the max of $2,300; oh my GOD McCain is in his pocket. The RIAA owns McCain with that $2,300.

Unlike Joe Biden, who obviously isn’t in their pocket. Biden wasn’t one of only 4x Senators to get personal invite to a MPAA/RIAA/BSA celebration bash for the DMCA. Biden didn’t propose spending a BILLION dollars to monitor P2P networks for “illegal activity”. Biden also didn’t co-sponsor a RIAA bill restricting recording the audio from internet & satelite radio stations. Nor did he sponsor a bill to make it a FEDERAL FELONY (federal pound you in the ass felony) to trick devices into playing unauthorized content. And he also didn’t push the FEDERAL government to go after individuals on P2P networks.

Pull your head out of your asses because you are so blinded by your partisanship, your own man is a hundred fold worse in what you are complaining about.
