But I do think it's funny to watch them have to fork over lots of money, time, and stress.

I feel so bad for that "guy on the corner" Oh wait...he's laughing at me, and YOU and everybody else in our business. He's just innocently pointing at all of Duke Dollars entire members areas ripped for free to anybody that wants it! And oh...I just noticed. He's not just innocently pointing. He's also getting PAID to point.

lol

But you and Gideon are definitely right. And everybody with skin in the game is just a mean and bad person. I don't even know WHAT a tracker is that gideon is babbling about. I'm in the porn business. Not the "stop people from stealing my shit, even though I'm not supposed to call it stealing" business.

Damn, I wish that poor innocent "guy on the corner pointing" named TBP would stop laughing all the way to the bank. Poor guy. His time is gonna come, and his money will be cut sharply...just like has happened to all the content producers and companies distributing and paysite owners. And then he will cry just as hard as we have.

I just hope gideon has that pic of a baby crying handy to use on TBP when that day comes.

FIDDY innocent TBP's standing on the corner innocently pointing at crime and getting paid to do it
Wow. Just Wow.

You openly admit you don't know shit.

Like I said.

This case isn't about copyrights and people stealing shit. This is FAR greater than that. All you naive tools who think this is about torrents need to open your eyes. If you want people to stop stealing music and movies and other data. Then do something about it.

Changing the interpretation of law to say what TPB does is illegal is so wrong it's just insane.

Think about it, changing the interpretation of the law like that. Could make ISPs responsible for someone using their connection to download copyrighted material.

Instead of going after the people breaking the law, you're changing the interpretation of law to be able to go after any tool a criminal uses.

What's next. Are we going to charge the companies that make slim jims with grand theft auto because car thieves use their tool to steal cars?

Are we going to charge Glock with murder because people have used their guns to commit murder?

Are we going to charge the company who made the baseball with the charge of destruction of private property because some kids threw it through a window?



LONG LIVE TPB!

Here. I'm going to try and explain this to you in really REALLY simple terms.

TPB (The Pirate Bay). Is like the yellow pages. They make available the INFORMATION of data. Not the data itself.

Now through out the yellow pages, you have a bunch of LEGAL information transfer.

Now let's say a few people, use the yellow pages to find a gun broker, and buy a gun. They use that gun to commit murder.

Instead of going after the person who committed murder. You're bringing the case to court and trying to CHANGE THE INTERPRETATION OF LAW, TO MAKE THE YELLOW PAGES ILLEGAL FOR PROVIDING THE MEANS TO FIND THE GUN.

.....Now, I originally referred to google. This is exactly how it would effect google, or ANY website on the internet. It would literally be a break down of information and free press and freedom of speech.

Let's say there is a document with instructions on how to make a bomb. If some person used google or any other website to obtain that document. Google or the other websites would be liable for the damages caused by the bomb. It will apply to ANYTHING done illegally with data procured from an internet source. It will make that internet source liable for the crime committed.

Is this clicking yet? Now granted, these are extreme off the wall analogies. But it seems you're not grasping it any other way it's explained.
