MPAA gives out treats

(1/1)

DC:
According to Slashdot here, the MPAA wants the right to break into our computer when they have any suspicion that we have copyrighted materials on them.

Now, of course, what counts for them, counts for us (equality for all and that). The Register has a nice article about that here.
Essentialy, I can hack whatever computer I want if I think they have copyrighted material on there (even if it's one stinkin line). The Register has a niceidea that might increase your pr0n-collection    (it does involve a semi-nude picture of your girlfriend, so you must first have those 2 things).

so if this shit gets passed, i/we can start a full scale cyber assualt on microsoft to "steal" there source code to search for code that is copyrighted under the gpl? then again this is another shit law that our government is passing. how is it up there in canada?
