Its practically stealing work that other people have worked damn hard to make. If you believe walking in to a shop and stealing stuff that makes you happy is right then go knock yourself out. But if you get caught then its YOUR fault, not anyone elses.

Just to make sure its clear, I’m not saying I haven’t downloaded copyrighted material. I’m just saying if I had and was caught then I shouldn’t blame the company for it. It would be MY fault.

As someone mentioned before, when Napster was stomped hard, wack-a-mole started. I suspect this will bring a lot of different new techs to the forefront, encryption will get started as a mainstay, you may see random port assignments as well as filtered IP numbers or substituted IP numbers, VPN may take off, the file sharing may good dark net, there are any number of possibilities including some no one has thought of yet, liable to be the end result of this court action, even if it is only temporary in judgment.

What is for sure is that file sharing will not die. As much as music is culture, so is sharing part of human nature. The only real thing that remains to be seen is what new directions this court action will bring about in the file sharing realm.

For myself, I don’t need the net to share. I know other ways. Ways that aren’t traceable back to you. For instance, it was discussed once before that while there might be problems with large sharing numbers, wifi without the net behind it, isn’t very traceable at present. It’s simply too local to be caught when you consider how big a geographical area that would have to be filtered to find each and every wifi that might be home router setup as a wifi hub.

Taking your external drive along with you to visit friends, leaves no IP number. What it does is offer is hundreds of gigs at your fingertips for swapping and is not limited to internet speeds, nor detectable on the internet if the internet is not used. WASTE is another option. While small in the number of people that could share simultaneously, they do so in security.

I too find it amazing the judge has not considered his own personal safety or that it is at issue. There are a lot of nuts out there in the world and some of them will no doubt take this as a personal affront. I myself am no threat to this judge. I have neither the will, the travel ability to be in the same local area, the motive that is intense enough to make a valid threat to him, nor the inside information to the judges’ movements. Nor do I want to know any of those details. I would assume with the range of people that are out there, many I am sure have to be using TPB services, that all will not be as I am. I do wonder if the judge has thought any of this out to it’s end conclusions. No doubt the judge is educated, most likely far better than I. If I can see the possibilities, surely he can.

I too feel there is a lot of stuff going on in the background that might not stand the light of day were everything known. It’s just a feeling going by what came out in the trial during its’ time and then to come up with this sort of decision just seems to smack of something not being on the level.

Moreover the judges are technically illiterate…

What now?
boycott sony and WB? lol

No worries. As long as it’s links to music, go for it.

Cheers!

Meanwhile, this MIGHT cause a hickup in filesharing, but it wont be much, or long either!!

Copyfight & stw

In my experience, most people vaguely know that you can get movies off the net, but their knowledge of how to do so is limited to watching YouTube. Why not show them how to do it?

this is why google dont get wacked

You are right we should start shooting all these parasites right now without waiting for the rest of the story.

We are not interested. The all thing is a parody of justice. No justice no peace.

My stuff is on bitorrent roaylaties free and this stupid judge have no right for makin MY STUFF! inaccesible to the public.

I remumber that many people warned them not to shut down Napster but since this entairtainement parasites ar of the same species than Bush and Sheney they did noty listen and it turned into an disaster. And still they did not learn the lesson and are diggin themselves in even further by comiting crime against our societies.

Since our governement are not doing their job to protect their citizen we have to do it and it is going to hurt.

Napster was the perfect 21st century solution for the renumeration the artists (but not the corporations of parasites) since it was centralised and since it was easy to monitor what was shared and to what extend and renumerate the artists accodigly via a glabal licence system. But Noooo! These criminals have to break it!

As far as I am concern this is a war the glove is off and we will take no prisonner.

Too late! we will never be on their side, we want them dead and we will get what we want because there is to many of us. We will be on the side of the next entairtainement industry that will be build

WITHOUT THEM!

Meanwhile I am hoping that the Vicking will respond appropriatly to this injustice and fire their governements

In any case it is not going to make us buy any music or movies or go to the music theater. On the contrary it will help us intensify the boycott.

I will discontinue my TV subsrciption. I just installed TOR and I will be uploading and seeding movies and music days and night.

It will be brought up that such a decision would need to apply to ALL search engines, as well as ALL ISPs.
Though that’s certainly what the MAFIAA would want, it won’t happen.
You can’t make EVERYONE liable.
