Record Label Pirates

Maybe “Artists against the Record Label Lobby Pirates” sounds better? Governments all over the world think about restrictions of private rights. Some of them already did so, it is an ongoing process. Private copies? No! Record a film shown on tv? No! You’ll even have to instantly forget every bit of information that was broadcast (even free to air), if the lobby associations have their way. Even if you go to cinema, you have to tolerate this flat “Anti Piracy” ads. Who has bought this bloody expensive ticket, I ask you? Who is paying for this ad? Who has to feel guilty if he or she recorded a film shown on TV? Well, ok, come down again :)
Today at least some artist associations stroke back. Have a look at the links below. Great campaigns, IMHO!

Firefox … things like that

Have a look at this. Even though, Firefox is not the ultimate browser it is by far the most usable in my opinion. Well, ok, they could review the CSS2 implementation. Firefox still doesn’t pass the ACID2 test.
