Okay, it's official.

The MPAA, or whoever the fuck is behind this, is nuts. CRAZY.

I thought that region whatever encoding nonsense was bad enough, but... *cracks up laughing*

Wouldn't that make renting out dvds difficult?

If they do something like this, I'll be annoyed, because I already have a dvd player and some dvds, but I'd just stop buying DVDs and wouldn't get a new player.

On a side note, whenever I see things about biometric data as proof, I get uncomfortable. They're saying iris scan, not retinal scan, and I really have no idea what mine would be like... but it kind of sucks to not only have a health problem, but also lose access to things because of it. They used to have these ads on television saying things like: Ever open your front door, just by talking? You will. And show a voice identification system... and people would say things like: Ever been locked out of your house, just because you caught a cold? You will. And I feel that way about eye scans and finger prints too. Sure they don't normally change. But one of my retinas changed drastically. And I did some temporary damage to one of my fingerprints once by stupidly connecting two wires that I really shouldn't have connected by hand.
