Bruno Longhi becomes a teacher

Guess what caught my attention while I was checking my mail (the one that burns, not the electronic one) in the hall of my apartment? This simple but ultimately funny advertisement was attached to the wall:

BrunoLonghi

For those who can’t read Italian, or that don’t know who Bruno Longhi is: as mentioned on this page of the Italian Wikipedia, he is a TV journalist that often writes articles about the italian soccer championship. The ad promotes a self-defined course about sport journalism on TV and Bruno Longhi is its main referer.

Obviously, everyone (at least, everyone that dares to admit it) knows that he could not even be able to teach in a course: figure yourself if he can be the “didactic supervisor” (more or less, the translation for the italian “direttore didattico“) of this organization!

In the end, this is my first post in the Italian category of this blog ;)

Rapidshare got sued

It seems that the very popular 1-click-hosting website Rapidshare raised the interest of the GEMA (Gesellschaft für musikalische Aufführungs- und mechanische Vervielfältigungsrechte or, translated in English, Society for musical performing and mechanical reproduction rights).

The Heise Online website reports that GEMA obtained an injuction against Rapidshare for having illegally allowed its users to upload content protected by copyright. The owners of the website defend themselves saying that the users upload files under their own responsability, so Rapidshare, under a legal point of view, is absolutely not guilty.
