Dan Farmer quotes about
computer death fear maybe motivated named people talk
People don't want to talk about death, just like they don't want to talk about computer security. Maybe I should have named my workstation Fear. People are so motivated by fear.
american-scientist hamper people
If you don't want to deal with them, fine. But don't hamper other people from dealing with them.
ideas secret normal
The whole idea that what is not normal should be kept secret - that's really distasteful to me.
writing connections protection
I can write a program that lets you break the copy protection on a music file. But I can't write a program that solders new connections onto a chip for you.
availability people complaining
Even if the music industry simply gave away all their music people would complain that they don't have the bandwidth to download all the stuff - the problem would merely shift from availability to distribution.
song honesty mean
Even if it was a difficult operation to copy a song, it only takes one person to do it. After that the spread of the song via the Internet or other means of propagation is only limited by the honesty of the users.
american-scientist enormous knows network
You have this enormous network and no one knows what's out there.
