I’m not a big fan of the MPAA but I’m not an enemy of the intellectual copyright. Does anyone out there want to post some possible solutions to Piracy etc.

Or do we all just want to pat each other smugly on the back for our anti-corporate stance?

I sure wish I’d see some balance on this issue. It would be quite a worthy thread to keep going.

The idea described above did make me laugh though.

From Cory Doctorow’s original posting:

So here’s what I’ve started doing: whenever this warning is screened, I take a very obvious flash photo of it. I’ve done it twice now, and both times, I got a round of applause. You can do it too. If we all do it, if we all laugh and boo when this warning comes on, maybe the movie companies will get the picture.
