Your post, #24, has been analyzed and determined to be

[] misleading
[] FUD
[x] trolling

on the basis of the fact that you have (check all that apply)

[x] compared the downloading of a digital file with the theft of a physical object and/or called file sharing “stealing”
[x] vastly exaggerated financial losses to rights holders due to file sharing
[x] insisted that file sharing is killing the music/movie/software/book industries
[x] stated that file sharing harms honest artists by depriving them of needed revenue
[] said that without copyright, there would be no incentive to create or innovate
[] implied or explicitly stated that artists should have absolute, permanent control over their creative works
[x] supported unjust punishments for copyright infringement that do not fit the offense
[x] supported unjust, expensive and invasive anti-piracy laws and measures
[] defended the entertainment industries and/or excused an immoral or illegal action of theirs
[] implicitly or explicitly attacked fair use, right of first sale, and/or the public domain

and you have done this despite the fact that (check all that apply)

[] effectively enforcing copyright on the Internet is difficult, time-consuming and expensive
[x] changing laws to allow easy, effective enforcement of copyright on the Internet would breach peoples’ privacy and fair use rights
[] overly broad and restrictive copyright has been demonstrated to harm society and restrict creativity and innovation
[] the modern implementation of intellectual property rights favors large corporations over individuals
[x] just because something is illegal does not mean it’s wrong
[x] the financial losses to file sharing have been challenged and no solid evidence has appeared to support the claims of massive losses
[x] Internet Service Providers have no desire to spend millions of dollars to police their networks and drive away customers
[x] one download of a copyrighted work does not equal one lost sale
[] any financial losses from file sharing are incurred by publishers and distributors as opposed to artists and creators
[] artists may in fact benefit from file sharing as it gives greater exposure which leads to greater sales and a large fanbase
[x] some industries, such as the motion picture industry, are bringing in record profits despite file sharing
[x] due to regional lockout and the entertainment industries’ resistance to change, some people have no choice but to pirate content
[] a large amount of free and legal content exists online, proving that people will create even if there’s no financial incentive
[x] you have failed to cite any sources for your arguments, particularly those dependent on data.

In conclusion, I advise you to:
[] review the fundamental intent of intellectual property law
[] actually read the article you commented on
[x] actually respond to the arguments that others make against you
[x] sodomize yourself with a retractable baton.

Obvious troll is obvious.

will see what will happen!
