Oh Obama

Oh hell to the ner.

"Obama And ISP’s To Launch Largest Digital Spying Scheme In History (Must Read)If you download potentially copyrighted software, videos or music, your Internet service provider (ISP) has been watching, and they’re coming for you.
Specifically, they’re coming for you on Thursday, July 1.
That’s the date when the nation’s largest ISPs will all voluntarily implement a new anti-piracy plan that will engage network operators in the largest digital spying scheme in history, and see some users’ bandwidth completely cut off until they sign an agreement saying they will not download copyrighted materials.
Word of the start date has been largely kept secret since ISPs announced their plans last June. The deal was brokered by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), and coordinated by the Obama Administration. The same groups have weighed in heavily on controversial Internet policies around the world, with similar facilitation by the Obama’s Administration’s State Department.
The July 12 date was revealed by the RIAA’s CEO and top lobbyist, Cary Sherman, during a publishers’ conference on Wednesday in New York, according to technology publication CNet.
The content industries calls this scheme a “graduated response” plan, which will see
-Time Warner Cable
-Cablevision
-Comcast
-Verizon
-AT&T
and others spying on users’ Internet activities and watching for potential copyright infringement. Users who are “caught” infringing on a creator’s protected work can then be interrupted with a notice that piracy is forbidden by law and carries penalties of up to $150,000 per infringement, requiring the user to click through saying they understand the consequences before bandwidth is restored, and they could still be subject to copyright infringement lawsuits.

Response: This is much worse than SOPA/PIPA and ACTA. It doesn’t necessarily censor the internet but it spys on everything you do. Your ENTIRE web history will be watched and recorded and might even assist the government. This was coordinated by Obama and his administration with the help of the MPAA and RIAA.
What is so dangerous about this is that this is not a law it is a policy adopted by several companies. That means this will not be debated in Congress and you will agree to be spied on by signing a contract with the company.
Internet censorship is becoming a reality and now the corporate elite will legally be able to spy on you. If we spread this and cause an uproar like what we did with SOPA, maybe they will back down. Either way people NEED to know about this."

Ohhh.. I'm glad I wasn't Living there.. hahaha..

 

So even if I use Peerblock, it's still kinda useless then. &%$*@... Thanks for reposting this. Will share it too.

 

Welp, looks like we'll have to find ways around it~

 

According to it, they will be monitoring your usage. When it is inexplicably high, they'll issue a warning, asking you to agree to not infringe on copyrighted materials anymore. Repeated offenses will result in capped/reduced bandwidth and/or possible lawsuit.

 

And, just how will they know....if we happen to be watching 1080p streams, or streaming things + playing games + doing this that the other thing?!

 

That's the point, even legit companies will still use large-sized torrents as one of their downloading methods.

I don't really know. Censor on internet use is pretty much unnecessary overall.

 

i don't think people that use the internet and download everything from there gonna vote obama for president again

 

Wasn't America bankrupt ? I'm pretty sure they down with like $14 bilions or more ....

Instead of doing those bullshit things they could ***in do something about that.

That country is a US spin off, it'll come to you eventually. My mother always said: When America sneezes, the rest of the world will catch it.
