Here&#8217;s a remarkable writeup on a analysis of search results from Google and Bing (Microsoft search engine).

		<description><![CDATA[How about this? A Spanish woman claims ownership of the Sun. There is an international agreement which states that no country may claim ownership of a planet or star but it says nothing about individuals. Now she demands a fee from anyone who uses the Sun. So basically you are all screwed&#8230; except me&#8230; since [...]]]></description>

They accuse Kroes of trying to get the open standards and open source off the agenda. Kind of weird isn&#8217;t it?

Niet alleen vanuit technisch oogpunt zijn gedistribueerde filesystemen cool maar OFF (Owner Free Filesystem) gaat nog een stapje verder: opgeslagen data en transfers worden randomize. De data die wordt opgeslagen is dus geen kopie van het origineel. Dat betekent dus ook dat op uw &#8220;opgeslagen&#8221; mp3&#8242;tje geen copyright meer rust. Het is [...]]]></description>
