(and you must consider that it isn't just the downloading of       images, but also the visiting of many web sites prior to find the one       that has the uncensored picture).                            And such images also help boost the canadian economy because those       geeks, in visiting all those web sites prior to finding the right       picture will have seen much canadian advertising (due to geolocation)       and this help boost advertising revenues.              The logical conclusion is that royals exposing themselves to       photographers is good for the canadian economy :-)                            Serioulsy, I think William Harry and Kate should just pose for       Playboy/Playgirl with all proceeds going to charity. If there are high       quality "full" images of them from those shoots, then media outlets       won't be interested in paying for fuzzy iphone photos taken from afar       showing Kate with just her top off.              At the end of the day, what is wrong with those images is that someone       made money from them.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
