For certain things, sure. It wasn't for my comment.

Let's see here. Someone posts a link. I look at the contents the link
refers to. I make a comment about that contents and other things. I
then get attacked for not posting a link to the contents that had already
been linked to. Then someone suggests I post a link to some other contents
I didn't find and didn't read?

If you want to expand on the topic and bring in more documents, by all
means go right ahead. I do enough of that already.

From Last Comic Standing a few weeks ago, apparently there are these PSA's
in Australia saying "you wouldn't steal your friend's car, would you?"
And his response was no, but if his friend said "I just got this great
new car, would you like me to burn you a copy," that would be different.

In a hundred years, that will stop being a joke. When people can print
their own cars, suddenly the car companies will have to put a lot more
effort into defending their intellectual property.

The people making big bucks will be those making machines
that can print cars. My heart bleeds for the buggy whip
manufacturers too.

Right now it isn't illegal for me to machine tool every
part of a Ferrari and put it together. I just can't call
it a genuine Ferrari.

They probably won't send you an exhaustive list of parts, and you
might run into legal trouble by selling it, or by building a car
from stolen schematics, or even by taking an existing Ferrari apart
and copying it a piece at a time. Though it'd be the best BoingBoing
article ever.

Of course, you could also spend 12 years designing, building, and
assembling a fully functional scale model of a Ferrari, creating all
the molds for all the parts and milling them all by hand.

Actually, you *never* post links. You remain an ignorant, self centered,
hypocritical blow hard.

A lazy one, too.

Actually I do post links when I am referring to something when the link
has not yet been posted. I don't post a link that has already been posted
within the same thread, especially directly above.

Yup. Just way too lazy to duplicate what someone else said.
