The problem is how the printed money is distributed. Central banks convert it into debt with interest, this is bad. Paying it as wages or a national dividend would get it to the leaves where it benefits people, then communities, then societ

Hundreds of thousands of ordinary people worldwide have had their lives destroyed by this. For enjoying art. The War on the fans is immoral, hateful and wasteful. Those who enact it have stolen more from artists than anyone.

It is not either or. Yes, Paul Graham has advised not doing music start ups because of the stupidity of the entrenched monopolies. But making money by forward thinking social change and distruption is at the heart of hnews. Everyone goes to

A lot of people did hard time and worse to change cannabis laws and anti-gay discrimination, voting rights, &c. Governments change laws when there is political capital in it.

Monopolistic copyright abuse by rights purchasers not necesarily authorial rights are the issue. The GPL depends on copyright to protect programmers freedoms & the public domain from appropriation. Is this a technologic or moral problem

Unfortunately in many juristictions seeding is copyright infringement and leeching is not. Seeding by default sadly gets a lot of newbs into trouble - especially as publicising IP addresses are part of the protocol. Porn blackmail companies

Can no longer edit this but sjy is correct , they accuse and accused denies it they get a jury trial : http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25745989 Luton terrorist forced to decrypt USB stick by RIPA.

So the defendant must expicitly deny it before proper proof is presented ? What sort of thing could possibly prove innocence ? A coma or merely a denial ? The text of RIPA49 states the only defense is to produce the documents and prove you

by deepnet 11y ago
Yup reading the law clearly show the only proof is the prosecution states the contents and date as they do in the filing. The filing contains what they call proof, I believe it better characterised as an assertion. No jury, just a judge dec

by deepnet 11y ago
Doesn't this mean the prosection makes an assertion and the defendant has to prove the contrary ? The context for the bit you quote says the defendant must prove the contrary (their innocence). It does say evidence is required and stat

Can you remember a 256bit AES key, though ?

RIPA trumps proof & only requires prosecutorial assertion. Under RIPA there is no presumption of innocence. Unbelievable yet sadly true. [Edit] -- disagree? Well so far this has been how it has played out in practice - if you disagree I

Good encryption is indistinguishable from random data. But RIPA has so far required no proof, only prosecutor assertion. RIPA is neither cricket nor Queensbury but shameful.

by deepnet 11y ago
[Edit] I stand corrected, decryption keys are apparently mostly 256bitAES I still think is not realistic to remember them. If it is just a password to a wallet of keys or an OS then authorities are more than capable of cracking them - just

Fittingly in 1984 the right to silence was changed so guilt could be inferred from silence. For instance when arrested at a place, in England & Wales you must explain your prescence then and there. That whole "...fail to give in ev

I believe the precedent in this case is the accused says the file is random data. The defendant has stated he can't provide decryption keys and states that this criminalises random data. According to the article he says can't not
