We Americans aren't fucking up anything. You hammerheads scream for help each and every time a disater strikes. If America is so bad, then why the hell does everyone want to come here?

Sure seems like a lot of folk have strong opinions, a lot of emotion & not much knowledge… LOL.
Laying the blame on any one,person, thing, country, etc… except money is probably both naive & ignorant (redundant ?) … but …. that doesn’t make the money or the people who generate money bad … the weak link seems to be the people/country/organization/etc. too weak, ignorant or lazy to earn/create their own money, in a meaningful way .. and that accept bad money for doing what they should know to be wrong just to get a share, of the money, they don’t deserve. Sounds pretty much like a liberal type blame game / reapportionment scheme to me. That accounts for all the youngsters espousing their “canned” emotional “lines”.
I certainly don’t mean this as a liberal/conservative issue… just noting the liberal sounding emotional responces, instead of logical, responses regarding the issue. The problem is compounded by the fact that almost every country has differing intellectual property laws .. and … most, including, obviously, USA & Malaysia exercise very inconsistent application of those laws. Could money possibly be an issue in this ?? (sarcasm) LOL
I do find it interesting that although it is very popular to bash the USA … the “States” seem to be the primary producer of a majority of the intellectual materials that the rest of the world wants to purchase, copy, mimic or pirate. It is not an accident that many countries purposely maintain much more conservative intellectual property laws and/or turn a blind eye towards enforcement of those laws. I would want all of these materials/properties available, inexpensively, to all of my citizens, too, if I were them.

@9: Actually, no. People who are hackers are not going to break a bogus law to stop piracy, so really they are getting the best they can get because all the good people know better than to help them.

Example: if you knew how to hack something, would you sell out the world just to “stop piracy” at one location? hell no.

@ 67 You can go to SuperTorrents for some “illegal piracy movies” as they have open signups. And while you’re at it, you can help Ersan buy a new Lexus with your donations.

A simple (in concept) solution would be to encrypt everything: hard drive, all connections, etc. Also use an app that checks for debugger in use , if the host were to install a debugger to ‘read behind’ the encryption with a memory dump.

It would also be a lot safer to store all sensitive data (like IP addresses) offsite.

Shinjiru is NOT , i repeat NOT an ISP. Get your facts straight. It’s a webhosting company. I am from Malaysia and there is no japanese named isp here. We have, TM NET (the biggest isp and also they monopolize everything as they’re backed by the gov, They’re good for me but alot of users say they sucks balls) Then we have other providers such as Metrofon and Penangfon (they’re only available in certain areas as they support only fiber optic lines) Then we have Maxis,Celcom,U-mobile,izzi as wireless providers. Wireless is crap….

Yes they should be onto bigger, more worthwhile crimes, but a dead kid, starved to death by their own parents doesn’t make any fucking money does it. Fat, fucking greedy corps make money, have to answer to their shareholders and worry about their director’s bonuses, they have the cash to pay the laywers and some cops, the child-abuse charity fighting to save just one life has to get to the back of the police queue, makes my blood boil, it real does!

Don’t insult Linux and open source, people; I think the quality of the software is often much better than proprietary.

Qoute #42 “okay, i bet if intellectual property goes away, then the biggest soft. companies would shut down as well, and you know the thrill with this open source cummunity – most of the crap they make is CRAP. as well as Linux distros.”

Opensource is what I use bittorent for and I take exception to the badly spelt poster, who obviously has never used Linux nor been interested in anything requiring a skill to create (You ever been a coder?)

I personally dont agree with piracy, but that doesnt give me the right to try and force my opinions onto others. #42 You sir, are uneducated and ignorant. If people want pirate goods, they will get it if its legal or not. Infact it could be argued that taking away the underground element of being “illegal” might actually reduce piracy, because Im sure alot of pirates will be doing so more out of a desire to “be a pirate” rather than an actual need for the stuff they are aquiring.

Anyway, Id just like to finish by saying to #42, you contribute nothing to this discussion. Nobody is interested in the opinions of the uneducated and ignorant (just like a certain someone who recently made waves by commenting on something they didnt understand)

British Government want to keep a huge database of all UK communications.

Richard Thomas of the ICO said it would be ‘a step too far’ and suggests a public debate on the issue. His payrise is mysteriously ‘put on hold’

If Linux is crap, then why does Windows have security holes everywhere? Linux isn’t as user-friendly as Windows I’ll admit, but it’s much safer and you’re not paying 100$ for a name.

And yes, most of the comments will be young kids saying “piracy should be legal!” because the internet is filled with young kids. Look at WoW, you have a population of a couple million and large portion of that is young kids who get full of themselves real fast. There are a fair amount of trolls though who bash “OMG piracy r t3h b4dz0rs! All pirates should be prison for life because companies don’t know how to compete without forcing other companies out of business!”. It’s a two way street.

okay, i bet if intellectual property goes away, then the biggest soft. companies would shut down as well, and you know the thrill with this open source cummunity – most of the crap they make is CRAP. as well as Linux distros.

Malaysia is ripe with pirated movies. You can buy any movie for the equivalent of 2USD pretty much anywhere. It’s a huge business that doesn’t produce any money in taxes for the gov. They want to stop the pirates from wearing eye patches sticking their wooden legs up parrots asses. Eat it.

@18 If they’re going to get a life sentence for linking to a file then they may as well do something which warrants it and track down and kill a troll, although that deserves a medal.

Does this penalty also apply to all the police types who share files? Coz if you think they’d even get told off for such a “crime” you’re a bigger retard than I first suspected.

Yea thats it go after someone copying a movie and then while you and your department are wasting the tax dollars on that the real criminals are getting away with the real big crimes like murder rape bank robbery child molesting and many many other far worse crimes…that just goes to show you how STUPID our GOVERNMENT & THE POLICE really ARE. I am so ashamed to say I am from america where our own president and his vice aid is so stupid and then the other law enforcement groups under him clear down to the rent a cops at the malls and such just follow the pide pipper and his merry men to the sound of his stupid drum. When are our harvard and yale educated political professonals going to see the big picture of how our country AMERICA is falling into the gutters of the world and worry about the serious stuff…People all around the world that use to fear us and look up to us as a role model are actually LAUGHING there AZZ’s off at us, we are just a joke to them anymore. Heres one for you. We went into afganastan looking for bin ladin and could not catch one yes one guy so we went else where to get another and we screwed that up as well we got him and now we are still chasing our tails in iraq instead of going full force back after bin ladin which we should not have left afganastan in the first place till we had the idiot that actually did damage to our country with his men flying planes into our buildings and killing innocent americans which the idiots in iraq like sadam did not do.So now you tell me why did we not keep a 100% effort on bin ladin and just let sadam be until we got the dangerious one out of afganastan? Yes that is why I call them idiots at the white house and all his pet monkies that are following him around like a bunch of pupets with a puppet master…Jokerman63
