Sounds less like The Matrix anyway and more like that bit in the Simpsons movie with a room full of people having to sift through loads and loads of politically unimportant emails and phone calls. The implications are pretty scary though.

That made me think of two bits of the Simpsons.

and
2. "Bart's right. The NBL is pretty much spying on you all the time. Who want's to know the terrible truth, or who want's to see me hit a few zingers!?"

These things take time to do. You can't just throw everyone out and say "sorry, we're closed now, find your own way home" or "ok, we're leaving your country now, we'll call to let you know we got home safely. Have a nice day"
These things take a long time to plan and organize, otherwise it will just be a cluster fuck and be even worse than it was before.

It was the summer of love, hippies and psychedelia, but 1967 was also the year of an apparent alien invasion.
Police, scientists and the RAF were scrambled to examine a number of UFOs which had appeared in fields around Britain.
One of those locations was on the Isle of Sheppey where the flying saucers turned out to be a student hoax.
Now an author is hoping people involved in the incident will contact him.

Can you really copyright a style of animation?
Granted this is very similar to blu's work, but it's just the style thats similar. It's a cross between graffiti and stop motion animation. The actually drawing isn't the same, blu has a darker style of drawing imo.

trying to grab your attention and create a false sense of amiability in order to grab your cash. Then along came youtube and all the fuckers seem to do it sit back and steal ideas.
I work in a creative industry myself and it fucks me right off when people do this. Yes - there is little here that could be taken to court. It's not a copyrighted style. But the sheer laziness of some people astounds and infuriates me.
There's nothing wrong with taking things that exist and using them to fuel your own ideas - it's about where your ideas go from there rather than where they're from. But surely there was once an ambition in these people to create. Instead they just take the easy route, copy someone else and push the idea absolutely nowhere. They have contributed nothing with this advert except bringing someone else's idea to many more people, shitting on him as they do.
I always used to think that people like this would get their comeuppance - that plagirising work will bite them in the ass because they learn nothing. What really gets me is that people continue through school, uni, and in work to do this and seemingly get away with it, the lazy, derivative, ambitiously-compromised hack-twats that they are.
