Aren't these measures solely for the purpose to stop file sharing of copywrited material?

This 1984 talk is pretty silly. People steal, with their computers and internet connections. And the companies who are getting robbed are trying desperately to put a stop to this.

And guess what? We are all pretty much thieves.
