I used to be a member, and activist for The Pirate Party and Open Rights Group. Went to all the meetings and spoke with people, and found them to have a much more nuanced view on "piracy" than your average. Thinly-veiled "I w

Took a fair while for people to "jailbreak" the PSP. But then when they discovered that there was a factory bypass in the battery, it was game over

Disagree on the last part, there's plenty of bands that only ever released on CD. Films and Documentaries that only went out on DVD, or even worse. Only ever shown at film festivals and never had actual releases. I've never unders
