Re: FC: Valenti to Congress: "350,000 movies pirated online every day!"
http://www.politechbot.com/p-03433.html "Just a few months ago we learned that one of Americas most prestigious and preeminent universities, vexed by the burden of heavy persistent student use of its computer system, actually set up a special server for Gnutella, a well known mightily used site for file-sharing (a ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ discreet description of taking films which dont belong to you). This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ astonishing action was taken by this University to relieve the swollen student use of its computer system. I swiftly dispatched an unambiguous letter to the President of that University chiding him for "a disreputable plausibility" which collided with the moral compact that informs a stable, free, democratic society. The University, to its credit, immediately cancelled the server." At least we now know the Mass Media Industrial Komplex's true intent. Remember: All p2p file-sharing is piracy!
