Ron,
Not just the internet connectivity. ALL walks of life!
Those Idiots should simply be terminated after societally agreed count of
idiotic achievements.
As for RIAA/MPAA. They are the rapists of the worst kind. They sodomize
their clients and the end users alike. They make billions of profit (+Evade
taxes) and complain somebody put a shitty cam version of some unknown movie
for download via P2P. Their latest scheme is to use tax payers money to
force ISP's spy and make accountable for their customers online behavior.
(Then terminate the connections at will of RIAA/MPAA and without due
process) See more about ACTA.
