Pirate Cinema

It took me awhile to get through this. I mean I think copyright reform is important but I kind of skimmed a lot of the legalese. I did like the slightly future setting with raised stakes for copyright infringement–it's easy to see a world where copyright violations get your internet disconnected for a year, and a world where that's truly a dire punishment. I liked reading about Trent/Cecil's adventures in homelessness and dumpster diving. I kind of wondered if it's glamorizing homelessness? But people do say you can get awesome stuff from dumpster diving. OK, that's not really the point of the book, just a social consciousness concern that flitted through my mind while reading.

This might appeal slightly more to the hacker/vidder crowd? Or to the homeless? IDK.
