Possibly dangerous but also could go a long way towards improving society. This is basicaly the end game of file sharing.

Per the Pirate Bay:
We believe that the next step in copying will be made from digital form into physical form. It will be physical objects. Or as we decided to call them: Physibles. Data objects that are able (and feasible) to become physical. We believe that things like three dimensional printers, scanners and such are just the first step. We believe that in the nearby future you will print your spare parts for your vehicles. You will download your sneakers within 20 years.


It's like, imagine if you only had to pay for housing, medical care, and services? People would have more disposable income. Less people would go hungry. I haven't thought it out fully but it seems like a good thing. Then again if you can download guns and keys.

Free copper pipes. Now, how do you print out the copper? Sounds more like sci-fi to me.

Ha ha. I'm reminded of a quote from Frasier.

Sleeping with the Enemy (series 3)
Daphne: Oh, come on now, Dr Crane. It's not like men have never used sex to get what they want.
Frasier: How can we possibly use sex to get what we want?! Sex IS what we want!

This goes back to the Hollywood Accounting tricks I was talking about earlier.

Wil Wheaton Says Chris Dodd Is Lying About Lost Jobs; Says MPAA Accounting Creates More Losses Than Piracy | Techdirt (http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120124/04344817524/wil-wheaton-says-chris-dodd-is-lying-about-lost-jobs-says-mpaa-accounting-creates-more-losses-than-piracy.shtml?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter)

Will Wheaton, of Star Trek fame and more recently as a Recurring Guest on The Big Bang Theory where he plays himself.
I have lost more money to creative accounting, and American workers have lost more jobs to runaway production, than anything associated with what the MPAA calls piracy. Chris Dodd is lying about piracy costing us jobs. Hollywood’s refusal to adapt to changing times is what’s costing the studios money. That’s it.


If You Thought SOPA Was Bad, Just Wait Until You Meet ACTA - Forbes (http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2012/01/23/if-you-thought-sopa-was-bad-just-wait-until-you-meet-acta/)
Got a even darker cloud on the horizon.


If Chris Dodd thought the blackouts for SOPA and PIPA were an abuse of power wait until he sees how hard the world pushes back against ACTA. I mean to think of how involved people got in other countries over a piece of US legislation. Now imagine how hard those same people will protest when it their own countries become directly involved.

Ironically these antipiracy measures have been discussed for a while with a limited amount of talk towards implementation. People were sure back in November that SOPA was going to pass and it got annihilated once mass awareness was raised.

ACTA has been around since April 2010. The reason people don't care yet is because for now it's only a threat. Trust me once ACTA goes on the fast track heads will roll. It'll make the SOPA blackout look like a bottlerocket in comparison.

Chris Dodd is an idiot. This is all going to backfire in his face. And I agree, the people won't go for this. I thought it was unconstitutional for the US government to go into secret treaties with other countries?

Even actors know the film industry is full of shit.

If everything is free then no one will make anything, innovate anything, do anything.
