So even if you have legit purchases, they can or will be confiscated? I am speechless. If they take something that I legally bought, I would have no problem to pirate it. Stuff like Rosetta Stone, while a waste of money, I took with me when I moved to Germany. That program was outrageously priced and I am not any better for having bought it. But if that gets taken away from me. Or this laptop, has over $10,000 worth of engineering software provided by my university- all student versions of course, but what are they going to say about that?


I have added a <a href="#article4">4th article</a>, one from PopSci about this Copyright security. It is much shorter than the 3rd article.

I just cannot fathom how anyone allowed any of these laws to be passed.
