Mainstream game is all about 1080. Monitors can be less expensive, so higher resolutions and multi-monitor configurations more feasible, but is still quite full HD for the average buyer. AMD knows, and that is why this morning's announcement of the Radeon HD 7790 comes with a clear promise: the ability to play the latest games at 1080p with high detail settings with a maximum gain of $ 149.

Well here's a story that would fit with what our friend Ken White with asshats Popehat generously called censors activity. There is a lot of activity in this tale bad, it's almost hard to know where to start - so let's really work backwards and reveal each new layer of censorship activity one step at a time. It begins with this: cooking blog scholarly Scholarly Publishing Society, published a blog post this morning, saying he had deleted some messages from your site because of threatening letters from a lawyer representing Edwin Mellen Press, an academic publishing house. While I disagree (strongly) the decision to withdraw the kitchen learned these positions, they do not publish letters at least legal, Amanda R. Amendola, we'll post it here:

There are all kinds of wrong here, but we only insiders in the rabbit. Firstly, it is quite weak Kitchen scholarly folded after receiving a single legal letter, not even alleged any violation of the present law. As the letter makes clear, they are simply overwhelmed what was written, but even they do not think the original ticket has reached the level of defamation. Instead, they simply love it, and promise that "we demand that the time Mr. Anderson publishes or makes a statement about our society or authors is that any defamatory, continue any action court only against him but also his organization. "And Kitchen scholarly bent and worn poles. Good job, Edwin Mellen Press to create scary effects on freedom of expression. He also said that if you post something that then causes a defamatory statement may sue ... well, this is an exaggeration. Then this line is pure crap:

We take this information to your attention because they are both editors of the declaration of Ms. Hunt and Anderson blog. As such, it has a legal obligation to control this type of comment. To limit the damage these facts, we demand the immediate withdrawal of Mrs Hunt, comments on your blog.

As Hunt said, in particular, Amendola is simply incorrect. Or she knows nothing, or chooses to simply ignore section 230 of the CDA and piles on piles on piles of jurisprudence makes clear that blogger

not

the opinions of the publisher and the user have

no legal obligation

for monitoring. But in any case, is wrong. Whether or not applicable to Anderson blog, which is at least a little fuzzy. Is

possible

the blog itself can result in liability to the owner of the blog, but there are also many cases involving people mail forwarding defamatory, courts felt that it is protected by section 230. Guest Post publishes a blog on the same e-mail? Seems to have a strong enough argument for it, but anyway, the argument

matter here

Amendola has already admitted they can not find anything defamatory in the original blog entry Anderson.

course, this made me curious. What was in the original blog. While a kitchen scholarly loose collapsed and fell to the post, the Google cache still has, at least for now. As the text of the latter and the comments at the bottom are fundamental to understand all this, I have kept the text in PDF format and embedded here:

As Facebook and Google are starting to flex their muscles lobbying, critics warn that their values ??are very different from those of millions of ordinary Americans

One day last month, about 40 protesters gathered outside the house noise Mark Zuckerberg Facebook co-founder Mark in Palo Alto in Silicon Valley, California. They chanted slogans and waved placards as a small select group of people who arrived in stylish sports car and escorted inside the residence where the billionaire relatively modest life with his wife, Priscilla Chan.

must have been an unusual experience for Zuckerberg, 28, whose position at the head of Facebook is more likely to arouse admiration or curiosity normal and ordinary Americans are outraged, Poster waving protesters conducted by the local police. But it was not a normal part Zuckerberg was chosen. It was his first collection policy and the election of its candidate attention. The Republican governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie

Under the eyes of the protesters, Republican bigwigs, Condoleezza Rice began arriving to pay tribute to - and write checks - a governor who took a stand against gay marriage and higher taxes Meanwhile rich embarking on a crusade against the attacks on teachers' unions in his home state.

But fundraising was one of Zuckerberg movements in politics. This week, the

Wall Street Journal

said he was in the middle of helping to organize a support group with other technology leaders political superiors. The as yet unnamed organization to demand reforms in areas such as research on immigration, education and science. The newspaper said it had raised millions of dollars from their cash-rich donors had an initial target of $ 50 million.

is a remarkable development, but also inevitable. The technology sector has emerged in Silicon Valley and other areas of development in the United States has become a multimillion dollar industry whose largest companies - including Google, Facebook and Twitter - have fundamentally reformed the way most of us live. As he grew in power and influence, was forced to enter the field of politics, trying to change the policy and gain allies across the political spectrum. For Big Oil, Big Pharma, tobacco and big banks, you can now add High Tech. This raises an important question that is rarely asked: more as they try to shape American politics, it is the technology giants really want

Kate Losse think

issue needs a lot of attention. She should know. It was one of the first employees of Facebook and Zuckerberg became a speech writer before leaving to write a book about his experiences,

The Boy King

seems aptly titled book was, and the latest technological advances in the world of politics, including the creation of a well-funded organization policy, are probably only the tip of the iceberg. "The fact that this type of development is happening suggests that there is a political project," said Losse. "So it is important to ask questions now. Otherwise, you might wake up one day and there is a system in place that we did not see coming. "

As with any other major industry, those involved in the Silicon Valley have political views across the spectrum. But, in general, are usually a mix of social liberalism and free market economy. It is a world where people are happy with the ethnic and sexual freedom, but the distrust of big government and see the "heroic entrepreneur" as an ideal ambitious. It is a political culture that has a debt with the libertarian novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand, who preached that the free market was the interest of the future and the government's hand was a little more dead weight in human creativity.

Google, is a leading company in the sector, and has hired former senior politicians - including former Congressman Richard Gephardt, Former Congressman Susan Molinari - to fight for their interests. Facebook lobbied on bills privacy, trying to protect their business model to exploit its content and user data as a form of marketing for advertisers. A former congressman onboard and on the form of John Shadegg.

The time when the United States was negotiating the ACTA, which were among those who have sounded the alarm about how disturbing this trade agreement was - negotiated in the back of the USTR whose details will be kept secret until they are locked in. In response, many of our Critics argue that we have been exaggerated, since ACTA was merely a "general agreement" that (1) could not Congress to force anything and (2) does not require changes to U.S. law, so "no big deal." In fact, we were told directly that Congress would not feel bound by such things, then it must be silent with our own arguments "tired", which are simply a "Chicken Little mentality" based on "what if ".



course, part of our concern very specific about ACTA is required even if no direct modification of the law, although locked in laws problematic, which makes it much more difficult to solve these problems. And although technically not "bind" the Congress, the second that no Congress has proposed a law that goes against the international agreement, we heard screams usual crew stakeholders copyright on how Congress make the most horrible of horrors "that violate our international agreements." Of course, this would ignore the fact that they have written or heavily influenced these agreements as a direct route through Congress.

For all inquiries Chicken Littles And if the past few weeks, the "scenarios" we talked became very, very real, and noted that what is so problematic that the USTR is particularly copyrights and patents in international trade agreements. First, as we noted a few weeks ago on the subject of phone unlocking some existing U.S. trade agreements have made it difficult for me to solve the problem. In particular, we call KORUS, the free trade agreement signed with South Korea there is a half-decade, which included a number of provisions of the copyright law, pushed by the entertainment industry (which had won because South Korea was one of the first countries in broadband coverage). The end result, however, is that this would go against the agreement actually solve the problem (as the White House says he wants) Unlocking be illegal.

Now Shirwin Siy rightly notes, Congress is not technically bound by these agreements and Can />
replace:


First, trade agreements do not dictate laws that Congress can and can not occur. If you are executive agreements can not override laws passed by Congress in the past, even if they are executed as treaties may be replaced by subsequent acts of Congress. While Congress can pass a law that cancels a previous law can pass a law that prevails over an earlier treaty. This is technically true, but the reality is not so easy. Shortly after my post went, I began to listen to the people around DC on the subject. In recent weeks, speaking to many people at the Capitol, and a variety of other people involved in the discussions, one thing has become clear: while some members of Congress really wanted to do a complete overhaul of release, the realization that international agreements on the road may have scuttled plan altogether. Recognize that Siy is correct, and that Congress is not technically necessary, but it is clear that

political reality is, in fact, very different. A bill that goes against an international agreement is considered a non-combat and non-policy that should be adopted for the project to make something really probably not worth it.

So we have a very concrete and tangible example of an agreement that is not technically "change" our laws ourselves in a bad situation.

AND ... could be worse. For all the talk about how Congress is not really the USTR negotiated, it seems that someone forgot to say that certain members of the Supreme Court. When the case was last week Kirtsaeng, dissent, written by Justice Ginsburg, repeatedly cited
international agreements
to play

right

, although these agreements are not intended to define the law or by force. John Bergmayer note how
