Re: Legality of Linking

Hello, I have just seen the article, and I can't believe it. This is totally
new for me. Let me see what can I say about it: "Universal Pictures" sucks
(sorry for being so rude, but it is the truth).

Is like if I tell a fiend that in the front grocery they are selling a great
new cereal, so my friend goes to the strore and without even looking to the
other cereals, he grabs the one that I told him and buys it, and because of
the the owner of the store sue me. What about our right of free expresion?

If I want to tell anybody where can he find exactly something, I have the
right to tell him.

Big corporations are doing whatever they want on a place where in the first
place was not done for them. What I knew about Internet, it was from the
people for the people. That is the reason of internet. There are too many
laws about internet this days, that it is very different that it used to be
three years ago. Does anyone has heard about that the goverment of the US
wants to add more taxes about the use of Internet? Next thing that we will
know about will be that we can't do anything in here without paying or
asking for permision.

What I think is that Internet is a place when everyone can talk, post, or as
you want to call it, anything they want. Is the paradise of free expresion.
(Well, they may bee some rules =O) ) and if the goverment and the big
corporations keep adding their laws to it, then, the people will lose all
the interest in it, and they will get just the contrary of what they want.

Well, I can go on for hours with this (because right now I have nothing else
to do) but this is in some part, what I fell about this.

See you.

Antonio R.
