			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>iPhone 5 features, solutions, applications and games are no doubt an absolute turn on especially in the modern tech era. You don&#8217;t just want to carry and show off a smart phone you want it sleeker, lighter and greater. Now that sounds expensive or worse still a fantasy, doesn&#8217;t it? Well, a <a href="http://free-iphone5.com">free iPhone 5</a> will definitely drive your imagination wild.</p>
<p>Talk of all your dream iPhone features and solutions plus a few improvements here and there while making sure to maintain those original features that you have come to adore in earlier models like the curved glass display, the white and black colors plus of course, all this at absolutely no cost. It doesn&#8217;t get better than that, does it? Previously they could offer your discounts, coupons and promise you a price that would not hurt your pocket but now it is even better, securer, thinner, lighter, slimmer, sleeker and all these for free.</p>
<p>Yes, it will be better than your Android phone, iPhone 3GS, and even iPhone 4 but the excitement are bound to get a notch higher especially when such alluring offers come together with cheaper models of the existing models. And yes the iPhone 5 will be 100% free and legal plus it will be guaranteed. No monkey business! So just how do you go about it?</p>
<p>All you need to do is sign up to some of the trusted give away or freebie websites like KUDOS, FreebieJeebies and the like, complete a free/sponsored offer or survey form from any of the listed advertisers/third party promotion companies and wait for your free iPhone 5. This should take you just a few minutes and you are done. Now that sounds too good to be true, right? Well, it probably is too good but it is true and it is all about taking advantage of online incentive marketing. Just make sure you time the release date of your much loved iPhone and be armed with as many referrals as possible and that&#8217;s it! You can easily find referrals from free trials, casino offers and credit reports. You will also qualify to refer your friends once you are signed up. </p>
<p>Alternatively, you could look out for other forms of marketing kind of the ones that require you to fill in some basic information like your email, area zip code and postal addresses and pop, they send you the offer! The best thing with these free offers is that if you don&#8217;t get the iPhone you could end up getting some other offers like ipads, coupons, iTunes, free vouchers or other Apple products. So don&#8217;t let up. </p>
<p>Anytime that the Apple manufacturer releases a new iPhone you are bound to benefit from such offers and this fall will not be an exception as the launch of the iPhone 5 come of age. Some of the free iPhone 5 will be a great strategy to test and promote this new brand iDevice. And what a better gift this Christmas than a free fifth generation iPhone masterpiece! </p>
<p>Of course there are many successful engineering touches and feats that the Apple manufacture would want to repeat and even take to a whole new sensational level but price will be without a shadow of doubt the first among the first priorities. They will want to make the iPhone 5 as affordable as possible. And with the anticipated pre-orders could come in some free iPhone 5 for promotion and that is where your luck is.</p>
<p>With the price of various products and commodities as well as value added tax rising in the recent times iPhone prices have not been spared either. Although Apple Inc. promises to release a cheaper model of the iPhone like Nano or a simplified version of the iPhone 4 to go head to head with the iPhone 5, it will be interesting if you are able to grab one of the few free offers for your keep. Most of these cheaper iPhone like the iPhone Nano and now the free iPhone 5 promotions are designed and meant to take the wind out of Apple competitors and they are doing a hell of a good job with it. As the company launches its new upgraded iDevice they will be showcasing their improvements and strengths and the consequent releases are bound to be accompanied by some of these kinds of free offers. So keep your fingers closed. You are bound to get your hands on a free iPhone 5 especially around the time of preorders, before specific release/ launch dates or sometimes before the iPhone 5 hit the market and shelves for sale. Well, sounds like you will be needing to invest some time and efforts to get it. Oops! There is no such thing as &#8216;free lunch&#8217; after all but just so you don&#8217;t burst your bubbles free is relative. This time it meant no cost for your iPhone 5. Now you know; get busy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The current election campaign has taken different shapes and the issue of digital policies has not been ignored. Technology writers and pundits have noted a couple of issues on the approach of the major parties on this important issue. What has been noted to be at play in these main political powerhouses is their devotion within their platform to have digital issues tackled, where the New Democratic Party and the Liberals have run different events concerned with digital policy. The trend has been an agreement on many an issue by mostly the main parties, each delivering surprises uniquely, offering a glimpse of the intensity of their distinct aspects of digital policy. General agreements by these parties fall in the area of telecom competition, security-privacy balance, copyright, Internet access and setting the price.</p>
<p>For the conservatives, their policy on digital platform seems to be lacking in details the other parties have in plenty, perhaps because of its track record in the last five years. A number of the positions are mostly geared towards showing their continual commitment to follow their clear course and promise of having rural broadband projects funded, opposing vocally the iPod tax implementation and gearing up towards copyright reform by having Bill C-32 re-introduced.</p>
<p>They have a surprise however; where as much of their emphasis has been on the Canadian economy, Conservatives have smoothly shifted from the economic aspects of digital platforms to concerns of digital security. A good example is the fact that the Tory seems to lack a lot to say on the prospect of having barriers of foreign ownership removed to suit the telecommunication companies or how they insinuate using the spectrum auction&#8217;s proceeds.</p>
<p>Rather, Tory seems to want spectrum set apart to the delight of first responders, emergency units and the police authorities, for example. With the spectrum said to be worth dollars in the hundreds of millions, the agencies will be needed to have the same amount of money to make use of it.</p>
<p>Conservatives have also renewed their commitment to have the police enjoy many new powers within the digital framework. A lack of specific reference seems to lurk in the scheme of the party. However, this has been included in its promise to have 12 bills associated with criminal justice passed in 100 days after Parliament has started its business, or at least have a minimum of two bills able to facilitate the police towards digital information access.</p>
<p>The Liberals on their part also have a couple of surprises to boot, for instance showing their willingness to move out of their uncertainty of several years and try out detailed positions of digital policy. The commitment of the Liberals is seen in their stand to use the spectrum auction proceeds specifically to cater for digital polices, that includes cultural funding and the expansion of rural broadband. They are uniquely the only party to set obvious targets towards the connectivity of broadband with their goals aimed at starting rather modestly, for example, within the first three years 1.5 Mbps and better speeds set to take effect by 2020.</p>
<p>Liberals on their part seems have an average detailed prescription on the issue of copyright reform that tells of their looming change to have Bill C-32 transformed. Inclusive in this is the expansion of the provision that describes fair dealing to have education included. However, they have put conditions on this that, &#8220;education&#8221; and &#8220;fairness&#8221; must be defined rather clearly.  Another change is on the provision that describes digital lock to have it allowed to circumvent for purposes that are not infringing.</p>
<p>The New Democratic Party on its part has taken a rather surprising turn on digital issues. Of this, the party&#8217;s commitment to have a decade of new media and Canadian Internet policies transformed is the most significant. This also makes the New Democrats to stand at the top of the other parties in terms of aggressiveness on Internet pricing. It seeks to have practices of billing wholly based on usage banned at the wholesale and retail realm. The party also seeks to have a longstanding approach reversed on Internet regulation and that of telecom, by promising to have the CRTC directive of 2006 rethought so that it can be determined by market forces.</p>
<p>The New Democrats are also gearing their focus on the increase of regulation for Internet providers as well as internet video services. New Democratic Party is also alone in saying that it is considering having Netflix and other prolific video providers and ISPs contributing towards the support funding of Canadian content creation. New Democrats policies will require many reforms be initiated on the Broadcasting Act and compel CRTC to have its decision on new media reopened, seemingly offering a hands-off internet regulation path.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An elephant named Amazon Cloud Drive just entered into the already crowded room that is online music sharing.    Of course it makes perfect sense that Amazon.com would seek a piece of this massive pie, since they already have the most sophisticated online content delivery systems in place for their bookstore.  Not too mention the huge customer base, state of the art shopping cart systems, AND a huge war chest of funds that will come in handy to battle the thousands of very aggressive lawyers employed by the recording industry.</p>
<p>Strangely enough, the current leader in online music downloads, Apple computer, is thought to be a beneficiary of this latest move.  Confused? So were we.<br />
The thinking is that Amazon will break the ground with the first widespread online content locker, and apple will soon follow with a superior service and control of the storage devices that 69% of online music lovers already use.</p>
<p>Amazon told All Things Digital that it doesn&#8217;t need licenses for music storage. What is less clear is whether or not it need licenses for streaming. (In fact, the labels themselves do not seem to be clear on that either.) Insiders told Reuters that unlicensed streaming might be illegal; in 2007, a similar storage locker service was sued by EMI for copyright infringement. EMI didn&#8217;t win, but the mere threat of the label litigation seems to have kept many from pursuing lockers.</p>
<p>Obviously it makes great business sense for Amazon to go after this market, but the ancillary benefit could be huge. Amazon is one of just a handful of companies with the resources to stand up to the music industry on this one. Like we said, sit back and enjoy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Followers of the ACS:Law file sharing cases recently heard at the Patents County Office in the UK would have been delighted to read Judge Birss&#8217;s comprehensive annihilation of Andrew Crossley&#8217;s law practice. The 17,000 word judgement was delivered on Wednesday 9th February and managed to criticise just about every aspect of the ill-thought out ACS:Law copyright infringement cases brought against alleged file sharers as a result of the much maligned &#8220;speculative invoicing&#8221; campaign.</p>
<p>Judge Birss criticised all aspects of the case, from basic errors, to misrepresentation and factual flaws, and indeed, it seems that ACS:Law and its partner, MediaCAT managed to do very little that was right throughout the whole debacle.</p>
<p>However, more interesting were the comments made by the judge with regard to the monitoring of IP addresses, and specifically whether this actually established if an offence had even taken place. As such, many feel that the ACS:Law judgement could have far reaching repercussions on the new Digital Economy Act designed to clamp down on alleged file sharing over the Internet. And indeed, the DEA is now the subject of a judicial review next month, so once again, we await the results with interest.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>But it seems that their reign of terror is finally over and as a result of an investigation, the Solicitors Regulatory Authority has referred the case to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal for a hearing next May. ACS:Law principle lawyer, Andrew Crossley, is also facing the same fate, so he will be watching the results of the case very closely.</p>
<p>There has been a great deal of adverse publicity of late about file sharing lawyers, ACS:Law, following a catastrophic leak of documents relating to dubious business practices involving alleged filesharing cases, but now Davenport Lyons are the subject of fresh file sharing scandal following a leak of documents.</p>
<p>The lawyers were the first to make big business out of sending pay-up-or-else letters to people accused of alleged file sharing and over the last few years they have made a fortune conducting generic schemes designed to frighten people into paying hefty fines in order to make phantom court cases go away. Unfortunately for them, evidence now proves that the firm of anti piracy lawyers knew all along that the evidence they were using to threaten people was mostly unreliable and would never stand up in court.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Davenport Lyons were the first in a long line of lawyers to realize just how lucrative it would be to target people with pay-up-or-else letters threatening legal action for alleged file sharing. Way back in 2007 they first came into the public eye with a landmark case against a woman accused of illegal file sharing and it was not long before other firms of lawyers saw the benefits of pursuing similar claims.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for Davenport Lyons, documents have now come to light which prove they were fully aware all along that the evidence they were using against people was flimsy at best and very unlikely to stand up to serious scrutiny. Of course the cases were never intended to be taken to court as the simple generic letters were designed to scare innocent people into paying up rather than risk expensive litigation.</p>
<p>The Solicitors Regulatory Panel has now decided that Davenport Lyons has breached the code of conduct expected of solicitors and as such has referred the case against two of Davenport Lyons partners to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal next year. The hearing will go ahead in May and will last approximately 7 days.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The judge at the centre of the much publicised ACS:Law and MediaCAT copyright infringement case recently heard at the Patents County Court, finally delivered his scathing judgement on Wednesday 9th February. </p>
<p>There were more than seventeen thousand words of criticism against the two protagonists responsible for a catalogue of speculative invoicing cases, but as well as the long litany of criticisms against Andrew Crossley and his partner in crime, MediaCAT, the judge raised a few issues that could have serious implications for the Digital Economy Act in the UK.</p>
<p>Judge Birss commented that monitoring done to identify an IP address as part of a copyright infringement exercise cannot possibly identify whether an infringement has actually taken place given the widespread use of Internet routers. This technicality is crucial to the Digital Economy Actsomething that will probably be discussed at a planned judicial hearing next month following applications by leading ISPs BT and Talk Talk.</p>
<p>The ruling could have serious repercussions on future speculative invoicing scams carried out by other greedy law firms in the anti piracy arena who are seeking to make an easy profit, of which there are still a few left despite the humiliations suffered in recent months by ACS:Law.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anti piracy firm, ACS:Law, has hardly been out of the headlines in recent times. First they came into the public eye following months of speculative invoicing against alleged file sharers; next their website was attacked by angry activists as a result of their dubious anti piracy business practices; and finally, when they tried to bring a number of cases to court in an attempt to further their speculative invoicing business empire, their scheme was exposed as full of legal flaws, much to the derision of the judge in charge at the time.</p>
<p>In the wake of his last disastrous appearance at the Patents County Court in the UK, Andrew Crossley, boss of ACS:Law announced his was quitting the anti piracy business. However, most people didn&#8217;t take him all that seriously, so when a further announcement came this week that ACS:Law and its partner in crime, MediaCAT had both closed their businesses down completely, it was something of a surprise to all familiar with the case.</p>
<p>But given ACS:Law and MediaCAT could be facing an action for &#8220;wasted costs&#8221;, plus Andrew Crossley has a solicitors disciplinary hearing to look forward to, the damage limitation exercise might be too late.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After seeing their insurance rates rise from 15,000 to a crippling 120,000 following the disastrous leak of confidential information on to the Internet, it is no wonder that solicitor Andrew Crossley , owner of ACS:Law, has decided to call it a day. In the last few months, Andrew Crossley has faced an ever-increasing barrage of criticism from the public, consumer bodies, and finally the courts.</p>
<p>This week, ACS:Law was back in court yet again, along with its anti piracy partner, MediaCAT, in the hope that it could persuade the judge to discontinue the 26 file sharing cases currently making their way through the judicial system at the Patents County Court in the UK. Both parties are fully aware that if the cases are withdrawn, ACS:Law can continue sending &#8216;pay up or else&#8217; letters to extract more money.</p>
<p>But since the judge was apparently even less amused at the extent of the shenanigans displayed by ACS:Law, Andrew Crossley has apparently decided to throw the towel in and call it a day. However, he still has the disciplinary hearing to face in a few weeks, so his woes are not completely over.</p>
