What needs to be done for the future.

We gotta fix up this screwed up world of ours. Here's some things that may help out...

Strike down the DMCA and UCTIA: The Digital Multimedia Copyright Act has good intentions but has very bad consenquences for consumers who wish to only listen and read. The UCTIA defines that all software has a waranty, including open source software where there can be no waranty to begin with. All stifle development.

Impliment a national anti-spam law: This will save consumers millions as spammers will be caught not using a legal standard way of spamming -- by keeping proof the user wanted to opt-in, and I mean REALLY opt-in. Brownie points for requiring all email servers to be secured, and fines for those that are open w/o approval & license. Allow ISPs to be sued in a class action lawsuit if they don't kick of spammers.

Nuke Iraq: I'm just tired of the whole charade. Nuke Saddam Hussein like we should of done years ago.

Open Source AIM: Really. Open up the code or change it all so we can IM over a cleartext protocal.

More as I think of them.

*GRUMBLE* For all pratical purposes, I'm running behind a firewall. It may be a Linux box running NAT, but it's a *)!@(# firewall none the less, and it's doing it's job too well.

I need to punch holes in it. And right now, it's a Socks 5 server.
