I love how we keep acting like internet censorship means the end of everything where there are countries where you can be stoned to death for making software you didn't know would be used by pirates.

I hate humanity.

I wholeheartedly agree.

I agree in like 90% of that... a little more, maybe.

Do you guys remember what happened to Mininova? They were shut down [momentarily] and now serve legal things like mixtapes, fanfics, and other relativly boring items...do you think Megaupload will have the chance [aside from all the accusations] to "system reset" itsself"?

Also I've been wondering about this while I was reading about Megauploads removal...The Pirate Bay (a p2p site known for piracy...) is and has been up for many years. TPB is one of the most popular p2p sites around or at least you've probably heard of it. So my question is--> with all the p2p sites out there and other file storing sites [multiupload/filesonic/esnips/etc.] why was Megaupload targeted? I know they *had* TONS of copyright infringement going on, but so does [practically] every other fileuploading/p2p site.

It was because they had a server in Virginia. At least, I think it was Virginia. I don't see it coming back as the owner has a warrant out for his arrest. That and well, it's apparently a "conspiracy." And having a site that had conspiracy flags waving around isn't neccesairly a good thing.

TPB is different. They're stationed in Sweden (I believe that's where they are) and don't have servers in the USA period. I feel like they were some back room deals regarding them no taking it down to be honest though.

Seems like a good time for a mass genocide of lobbyist and politicians... can't wait for all the fresh corpses and a few "captured-alive" test subjects

Well, I think that is a class many will not surely miss.

(But saying it like that... you really just want "guinea-pigs" for your experiments, right? )

Priceless its like murder!

We must act to recover what was taken from us. Take the ashes of what they have torn down and restore it to its former capacity. So the question is 1. what site| 2. when will we begin | and also sorry if this is a bit out of the usual but who will help rebuild this. Also how to safeguard our posts.

sadly more schemes are being hatched by the Gov't to further invade our privacy even more.....this time against child pronz(which i agree should be taken care of) but now this means they're gonna be tracking everyone's site history,etc...
