doj and the bush crackdown on pirates--arrrrrrrrgh!!

president bush has signed a law recently to try and stop movie and music pirating.

the riaa and the mpaa rejoice.

this new law gives up to 10 years in prison for pre-releasing a movie. in fact, i'd almost say, if one was contemplating entering a life of crime and only needed to pick a profession, it would almost be a safer bet to be a sex offender. most of the sentences don't seem quite as harsh.

quite a country we live in.
