    Audio Recording Law Under Scrutiny in Illinois

    The regulations were put in place to enable the rich and powerful to continue breaking the law by effectively excluding the only possible means for an individual to obtain the evidence of their illegal activity. In fact they went even further to allow the wronged party to be incarcerated for...

    PS3 Hacker Expects Jail Sentence

    Not only are EULAs not Laws, for the most part they are not even enforcable. Frankly Sony should be subjected to a class action suit and charged criminally with conversion.

    Judge OKs iPhone Class Action Against Apple, AT&T

    IMHO the are a few damning issues here: 1) While the period of vendor lock to AT&T may be disputable (I can certainly see how some people reasonably expected that to end with their contracts) the fact that, of all the phones that AT&T provides the IPhones are the Only ones that AT&T refuses...
