Would you start a war? Loot a pension fund? Circumvent the Constitution? Monopolize the media? Unless you are a government official or a corporate executive, chances are, YOU WOULDN'T!
     
All around us we see war and environmental destruction, eroding civil rights and obscene profits. No wonder media corporations and their lobbyists want to control what you can say and do with media. The MPAA's latest video against file-sharing could have been just another insult to our collective intelligence, but putting it at the beginning of hundreds of thousands of DVDs and making it impossible to skip was going too far!    
 


Our parody of the MPAA video is called Abuse of Power (320x240 1.3MB // 640x480 6.2MB) This video requires the latest version of the Quicktime player (download Quicktime 7
