So who's happy about the copyrights bill? Especially the part about unlocking phones?

One thing im confuse about is, how can a carrier check to see if a certain phone is unlocked? I can understand grey market phone running on their network - just check the IMEI. But for the unlock... hmmmm.

Another thing, i rip all of my DVD's for my own collection. Whether to stream to my ps3, watch it from my other computers or for archiving purposes.

I bought the DVD/CD, i have a right to rip that and use any kind of device to play it with.

It seems to me this bill is more pro-industry that pro-consumers. Very ass-backwards IMO. If this bill passes, guaranteed more people will be D/L instead of purchasing.

I almost forgot what 2nd and reverse gear feels like.
