Werner Langen, a European lawmaker representing German Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU party, echoed that suggestion, drawing parallels with U.

But I think if you asked the average person or lawmaker if Gmail provides a means of communication, they would also say yes.

Sounds a tad buggy and something a lawmaker might want to fix to avoid this kind of thing next time.

OR: b) The fix is in, a tame lawmaker will drop a bill that they just happened to have prepared that was sitting in their drawer for a rainy day.

Its enormous amount of lobbying is all about guaranteeing that monopoly by buying lawmaker votes.

I don't think that any but the most naïve lawmaker believes that these laws will stop the behaviour they criminalise.

No lawmaker and few citizens are willing to pay for that.

I don't think any lawmaker has the right to make it for you.

Some lawmaker proposes getting ISPs to enforce copyright?

If we don't find a solution, some old lawmaker will.

It's a good idea, but your best shot at success would be to try and run it as a charity so as to at least have a chance at getting lawmaker support.

Who wants to wake up in the morning and think "thank goodness some lawmaker is forcing someone smarter/better than me to live in poverty so I can have this cushy job"?

An American lawmaker used the term "legitimate rape" a couple of years ago when explaining why a woman shouldn't be able to get an abortion even in the event of rape, because if it was a "legitimate rape" she wouldn't have gotten pregnant.
