those who promote "solutions" to the risk of piracy erode the integrity of the network and the freedom of the surveillance, censorship and control
attended presentations on how to resolve conflicts copyright I had hot lunches, and they were all up to the mark. This is because most people with a solution to the copyright wars are concerned artists' incomes, while I am concerned about the health of the Internet.
course, I worry about the income of artists, too, but this is a secondary concern. After all, almost everyone who ever decided to make his life in the arts has failed - in fact, an important part of trying to end up losing money in the business. It has nothing to do with the Internet: art is a terrible thing, where most of the revenue is recognized at a fraction statistically insignificant professionals - a long twisted tail with a very fat head. I happen to be one of the lucky lottery winners in this very strange and unlikely - I support my family with creative work - but I'm not parochial to think that my fate and that of my companions .0000000000000000001-percent real problem here.
Whatthe real problem here? In short, it is the health of the Internet.
Wars copyright eroded the inherent resilience of the Internet in a time of desperate need. The Internet of today is integrated into our lives in ways that surpassed even the wildest predictions of the 1980s - is the default mode of signing your child in dance classes after school to pay your gas bill, posting videos of police violence, because pay money to distant relatives, for permission to place a garden shed, to enjoy a holiday to see if you need to go to A & E to write a whole and more else, like buying food, buying insurance, getting a degree or qualification, and all other activities that involve full - article or essay for school to earn his living in public life. None of these things are related to the entertainment industry, but none of them are taken into account when industry colleagues in government to develop their plans against "piracy". Everything we do today is the Internet, you simply need tomorrow.
The Internet is important, but the copyright wars to treat it as a truism to say that the cable TV 2.0, as the second coming of the telephone system as the largest global distribution of pornography. Laws such as the Digital Economy Act provided for the whole family off the Internet without due process in the neighborhood because someone is wrongly accused of watching television. It would be bad enough if the Internet was simply a conduit for the delivery of entertainment products. But the Internet is a lifeline for families, and providing entertainment companies offshore the right to remove, because it is suspected of evil, is like giving the power to transform your Brita water family if you think you have abused its filter. KitchenAid like giving the power to turn off the power of your principal residence if they think you have used your mixer of an approved plan
The Internet is the best - sites blacklisted room to display all kinds of information, and yet the judges of the High Court of England decided that the entertainment industry can be - and often the only and they do not like an order requiring service providers to block without a hearing, much less a trial.
The Internet only works when connected to peripheral devices that are connected to the Internet, have multiplied. It is not only the phone in your pocket - CCTV in the door with the latest toy for your child, the category of "autonomous system" decreases rapidly disappearing. Futurist Bruce Sterling In said in his recent speech South-South West, a personal computer, c1995, is perfectly capable of handling your words and post your worksheets, but it will be very difficult to find someone interested in taking one of your hands. Sans networks, the relative value of all losses to almost zero.
However, the Directive on EU law and the laws of the United States as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act become crime literal "jailbreak" means to install their own software on them, software reverse engineering in them and discover the vulnerabilities that could be hidden threaten you. Each week brings a new example of a device which is less safe as it should be - most recently, a presentation at ShmooCon security event showed that DSLR cameras compatible Wi-Fi could be sequestered on the Internet and became CCTV covert video hidden streaming for bad owners. A policy that allows you to modify the software on a network device to make sure you are not in the area of ??controls overcome or subvert the App Store is just crazy.
- Back to 'solutions'. I had a lot of well-intentioned people how stagnation author can be "solved" by any means it will be easier to pay the artists and companies that support them. BitCoin that visibility has grown, so that the role of "micro-transactions" to use in this context. As you can share a fraction of BitCoin free, it may be convenient to exchange money for something as small-account entertainment, opening channels of payment that have been closed so far. ago still "mentally transaction costs" to decide whether the moments of entertainment value of even a small amount, but is another problem.
However, even if microtransactions quintuple the amount of money circulating in the entertainment industry, I think it would do nothing to quell calls for greater confidence, greater vigilance and better control. Experimental psychologists have long documented pathological "loss aversion" - where you have to pay more attention to what we have lost what we won. Entertainment industry is the poster child for aversion to loss - how else to explain the weeping and gnashing of teeth about piracy losses annually attend shiny numbers at the box office? "Of course, we are more than ever at the box office year last, but think how much more we could have done if not for piracy! "
