think the article's been removed
it quoted an article on BBspot, which afaik is a satire/humour blog (akin to the onion)

in the related articles bit, there's an article on self-destructing dvd players

scary thing is that is almost what the Australian government are proposing now.
They are about to define a public performance as any playing of music where people who aren't direct family or immediate friends can hear it. Any breach of this will soon be a criminal offence, not a civil one.

Not to mention the new laws still make owning an iPod a jailable offence and using Google will also land you in jail.

The article was disabled by the author (no idea about the reason). The "latest news" module is cached on the homepage so its some minutes behind.

OK, no problem then.
By the way,a "related" article:

Los Angeles, CA - Motion Picture Association of America President and CEO Dan Glickman announced a bold new strategy to combat the "pernicious effects of piracy". After many failures to stop piracy by technological and litigious means, Hollywood will rely on psychological tactics to thwart would-be file-swappers by making only movies that suck.
