lol, i do agree with you about them fighting back, but they really arent the good guys, because they are providing copyrighted work for free, the musicians do deserve to get payed for what they do, but if canada gets that $5 a month for downloading shit that would be great.

Peace

Well I do agree artists need to get paid for their work, labels take a huge chunk of the money from CDs, Concerts, etc., this and other reasons are why some artists are choosing to "cut out" the middle man and release albums without the help of a record company.

Hilarious!

These guys are awesome. They don't take any crap nor scare easy.

Priceless !!!!!!!!!!!

I dont care about piratebay.

Here is why.

Recently piratebay torrents have flooded the internet i know mostly to pirate but did you know that half of them are sting operations by the RIAA and MPAA to track your ip address and then file charges against you most of the piratebay torrent's listed that contain software from microsoft and apple and even adobe are infact produced by adobe and microsoft and apple to count how many people use illegal software and how many install it on there machines once this happens they can file charges against you.


Here is a interresting story for you

One of my friends was using a torrent from the piratebay to try out mac os x leopard before it was finalized and released to the public so he went online and downloaded the beta torrent before the beta torrent was even finished downloading 2 comcast cable company trucks pulled up at his house went across the street to check his internet connection at the junction box from where he was connected and started illegally searching his computers without a warrent this is mainly why we got the case thrown out of court because they had no legal right to violate my friends computers to search there machines we wanted to know how did they find out so fast we found out that the torrent file was produced by comcast to catch people illegally downloading software another reason this case got thrown out intrapment so this is basicly why i do not use piratebay.

Does anyone else smell fish? Really pongy, 2 month old codswallop?
Have you ever noticed that sound echoes when you talk down a tube? Just like the message above kind of reverberates from an asshole, maybe?

Well, it makes sense about the piratebay sting operations, but, its really simple to avoid, just check the seeds and leeches,

but idk...

anyone have any ideas about different torrent trackers that work as good as the pirate bay,

cuz lately it seems the bay has been spammed with more and more crap,

but maybe thats just me...

That sounds really really really made up!! Are you sure you didn't see that on a southpark episode/ thought about it in a dream or something like that??

What kind of CIA/KGB isp is Comcast then, to pull up with 2 trucks (really, 2? not 3 or maybe even 12?) in the street, check boxes... starting illegal searches on his computer....... (then they went in the house, beat up the kids, tied up his wife took the dog with them for questioning)....you believe it yourself?

Good story though, made me laugh :)

It's nothing to do with comcast is it.. They just forward a letter from the copyright holders threatening you will all sorts based on hearsay and supposition hoping you will settle for some extortionate amount of money instead of saying "prove it"

If they want you for criminal stuff they come through your door at 5am with a warrant.

They only circumstance I can see of comcast behaving like that is if there was a complaint to them from a copyright holder (or not even.. just a light on somewhere on a panel) and the ip tallied with a wire which wasn't supposed to be connected.. i.e. Stealing internet off them. Even then all they would do usually is quietly send a lineman out to pull the plug, and a cease and desist letter to the address that investigating the box showed the connection going to..

Good laugh..

I should check the news on the Bay more often.. I never seem to get around to it (too much good pr0n for us members)
