Geez, downloading just about anything these days is getting risky. These guys obviously weren't the smartest of crooks in the genre, but it still makes you think. It's only a matter of time... I think I may install a self destruct key on my computer, just in case this situation comes my way in the near future :)

I'm going to lie, I download movies. But I'm not going to lie about this either, 90% of the movies I download, I then go out and buy the DVDs. Hell, most of the time it's a $30 Criterion Collection DVD. For me, they are all basically trailers. But I have to consider the fact that half the people do it to save money also. Sick bastards...

commit the crime, do the time. what do the warning labels say on the store bought movies. a 250,000 dollar fine and or 5 years in prison. well lets see, 250,000 times 12000 movies equals 3 million dollars. well of course this would be the maximum sentence. sucks to be them.

or, basicly, life in prison, cuz 12 thousand times 5 years = 6,000 years in prison, for the Max sentence.

When are they going to start crackin' down on Trackers/Servers/Users with BitTorrent? (Not that I use BitTorrent to download stuff...)

lol, they try but, P2P (eMule, KaZaA, BT etc.) are VERY hard to shut down/track. Sense they have no central server (like Napster 1.0 did) it is almost impossible to shut them down.

yeah they will never stop p2p.

Not to seem too critical, but this fellow is as dumb as a shovel (doesn't have the common sense God gave a dog).
Signal, your math is out - that's 3 thousand million dollars, or $3 billion.
Well, in Canada you can get 18 months for murder but, I bet this guy gets more than that...

The best way to be prepared is to have a small bucket filled with enough gasoline to cover the external harddrive and a match when the situation arises :) lol

On the Broken (www.broken.org), this Indian guy made a 'button' that would set off thermite inside his laptop at 1000 degrees molten lava. It was really horribly done, they put the thermite in the battery slot, but from there, I see where you're going with the gas and match :).

its as simple as this... do all your downloading, get your hands on one of those government deleteing programs ( it writes over the entire physical surface about 10 times to enusre distruciton of the data) and after youve downloaded all the dvds music and games you want and have backed them up... erase all your tracks!!!!
