The guy who put together those videos is quite the smug douche. Love the undertones of his spin...

The Jeepers Media guy is kind of a dink. While its true that the US imprisons a shitload of people, most of those people are black and / or drug offenders. He makes it sound like linking to sites containing copyright material is instant jail time which of course it is not. This guy is delivering his opinion with so much glee and calling it fact it's a wonder why Fox News hasn't given him a job yet.

I am still watching this guy. What an ass. He really doesn't have his facts straight at all.

Spin? Are you denying that the same people behind bills such as this were not only large financial backers but also the largest distributors of the pirating software?

If I supply you with a gun and you shoot someone with it won't I become just as guilty?

You're hilarious. Cnet distributes torrent software, and CBS owns Cnet... so by your logic, or the logic of the dimwit who posted this video... CBS is profiting from piracy and suing people for infringement.

Similarly how Target sells very sharp Wusthof knives, which gang members can purchase and massacre entire families with...

I guess by your logic, Target supports murder.

Go unplug your computer.

Not only do they distribute the software several of them are financial backers in some form or another in several of the softwares.. So they developed and supplied it to people knowing full well what they were going to do with it.

hmm not sure that is "dimwit" logic.. it actually seems pretty straightforward to me.

They are profiting off software who's main use is to steal copyright material. Then they are suing people who use it.

i love using analogies .. but this is a poor analogy. The majority of people buying knives at "target" are not using them to commit criminal acts, nor is "target" advertising it's knives as a great way to commit an illegal act.

In the video he explains that not only is CBS distributing software who's main use is to distribute copyright material , but they are actually demonstrating via screenshots , its use to download copyright files.

to make your analogy proper you should have "target" advertising it's knives with a picture of gang members murdering someone with one.. then ask if people think target is also responsible.

Do you stumble often walking around with those blinders on? Or like a blind man you've been wearing them so long you can do it effortlessly?
