[dvd-discuss] OT: Europe blamed again....



The BBC has a story:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_1951000/1951231.stm

..about how Europe with its "40 year old laws on copyright" is a "haven"
for software pirates. Also mentioned is an "amnesty" for Russian internet
cafes to allow them to get all their software "legalised". That ought to
boost linux use in internet cafes methinks....

Why have they got a photo of Alan Cox with a silly hat on and joss-sticks
in his ears at the top of the page? :-)
