Update Sopa and Pipa bills postponed in US Congress The US Congress has halted debate on two contested anti-online piracy bills. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid delayed a vote on the Protect IP Act (Pipa) scheduled for Tuesday. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith then said his panel would not consider the Stop Online Piracy Act (Sopa) until a compromise was reached. The decisions follow protests by online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, and thousands of other websites, which went "dark" in protest for 24 hours earlier this week. "In light of recent events, I have decided to postpone Tuesday's vote on the PROTECT IP Act," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, said in a statement on Friday. Mr Smith, a Texas Republican in the House of Representatives, said in a statement: "I have heard from the critics and I take seriously their concerns regarding proposed legislation to address the problem of online piracy. "It is clear that we need to revisit the approach on how best to address the problem of foreign thieves that steal and sell American inventions and products." Get More

retaliate over Megaupload website shutdown Hackers have targeted the US government and copyright organisations following the shutdown of the Megaupload file-sharing website. The Department of Justice (DoJ), FBI and the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) among others have been bombarded with internet traffic. Web links have been been distributed which, when clicked, make the user's computer part of the attack. A statement attributed to Anonymous claimed responsibility. Blackout protest The DoJ announced on Thursday that it had taken action to force Megaupload and related domain names offline, and had charged the firm's co-founders and others with violating piracy laws. Four of the employees have been arrested in Auckland, New Zealand, at the request of the US authorities. They appeared in court on Friday. One of their lawyers initially objected to media requests for photographs, but the accused said that they did not mind "because we have nothing to hide". Their Hong Kong-based site had around 150 million users and 50 million daily hits. It had received celebrity endorsements from the model Kim Kardashian and singers Alicia Keys and Kanye West among others, making it one of the net's most high-profile file sharing sites.... More

QUOTE (1 of the 7 @ Dec 14 2011, 05:40 AM) Welcome threewill (cool name)! Hope you enjoy it here! I ask lots of questions - How long have you been a Rush fan? What are your favorite albums, songs, etc.? Did you get to see them on the last tour? I'm a newer fan - I didn't see them until the Time Machine tour. The synth era is my favorite of Rush, but I like it all. I'm not sure which section is best for your ringtones - if they're Rush-related, probably the Rush section, and if not, Music of the Spheres. Have fun! Carrie well, it all started in the 2112 era....to you, i may probably be that line "what can this strange device be?"...2112 was the new fresh sound of the time and there was much more competition in those days with the big guys (led zep, floyd, black sabbath, deep purple, etc) and those are just the british!! i got to see the band twice when i visited the UK. The hemisphere and permanent waves tour, so you can pretty much sum up my era. almost all albums are my tops, i can't really pick... P.W, M.P, Rush, Signals S&A...list goes on!! naturally, all rush related ringtones, so i will go forth and seek.... anyways it good to be here, still have loads more to look into this fine forum cat lover i see...well we are on track...
