    Cox Must Pay $25M For Not Stopping Repeat Pirates

    The court is possibly thinking that it's technically possible to block individuals from "pirating" on the internet (e.g. they all use bittorrent, so block all torrents). A problem with this is that the "bad guys" will just try to find some other port or protocol to share their stuff. This...

    Copyright Royalty Board Hikes Rates Pandora Must Pay

    I think they pay some sort of all inclusive fee, not based on the number of plays. Perhaps this is a historical relic from a time when record labels were flush with cash.

    Australian Police Raid Sydney Home Of Reported Bitcoin Creator

    Seems right to me. I'm okay with the identity of the creator being secret. If you had something value (e.g. a shit ton of bit coins), you wouldn't want everyone to know that you did. They could steal your shit and you'd have no way to prove the bitcoins were yours to begin with. Pretty...

    Yahoo Board To Weigh Sale Of Internet Business

    Isn't that pretty much their entire business? What's left after selling off the internet bits?

    Car Dealers Don’t Want To Sell Electric Cars

    I hate $stealerships as much as the next guy, but there is a little bit of history that should be brought up. Back in the day, auto manufacturers acted like dicks. They required that auto dealers pay cash up front for all cars, and that they buy cars from them on a prearranged schedule, no...

    Pennsylvania Proposes $50M Fine Against Uber

    Don't taxis just drive around looking for passengers? Taxis are easily identifiable (bright yellow/green/blue/etc...) and have light up signs. I wouldn't quite call the pink moustache or small uber logo in the corner of the windshield as easily identifiable.

    Looking for a DOCSIS 3.0 Wireless cable modem

    Make sure the modem is supported by your ISP before buying. That's my 2 cents.

    Yahoo A Target In NY Daily Fantasy Sports Probe

    A little off topic, but isn't this what half of Wall Street does, bet on the price change of stocks? If you want to bet on sports legally, go live in Vegas or Atlantic City.

    Pennsylvania Proposes $50M Fine Against Uber

    This seems to be the MO for all these nouveaux internet companies, it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission. Maybe the internet is the new "old west". Regardless, each state and city are entitled to have their own laws (the backbone of the United States) and to assume as a...

    Why Free Can Be A Problem On The Internet

    TMobile does shit like this because they are basically the 3rd or 4th carrier in terms of subscribers in the US. They want more subscribers and must figure this is a way to get a lot of publicity and maybe increase their rolls by some number of new subscribers. Plus, if the QOS ends up being...
