Love the casual racism there. Surely you of all people should be backing those “yellow bastards”? They are after all, pirating like you and me are.

And heaven forbid the Chinese wanting to show their best to the world. Not like us Westerners, who always put substance before style!

It is ridiculous to relate this pirating to Chinese people without any proof. It should be denounced if The Pirate Bay provides torrents for the opening ceremony, and i believe IOC is doing the right thing. I cannot think out any reasons why Chinese people would even try to download this stuff; they can see it right on TV from public channels, without any charge. Maybe Chinese have lots of thing they don’t do well, but try to impose all the charges on them is unfair, and with no evidence, what do you call that?

as a hosting country, China is too eager to put on a perfect show to the world, maybe some approaches are inappropriate in the eyes of the West, but do the Chinese people steal something from you?

God bless us with more understanding.

RIAA, MPAA, IOC,â€¦ Same shit, different acronyms. Free and public distribution services akin to what The PirateBay provide threaten the profitability of some industrial sectors, so they utilise their powers to eliminate the threat and so solidify their position of control so they can profit.

Hand A: Popular interest.
Hand B: Corporate interest.

Looks like IOC is spineless to to enforce their own rules but expect others to follow MPAA/RIAA style rules. In fact I suspect other forces at work here.

@27: The Swedish minister of Justice need not worry. I barely heard of Sweden before this, or cared for it.

Now I refer to Sweden as Valhalla for their amazingly intelligent people. The reputation is huge and stands out above all others in Europe as far as I’m concerned.

“Police That Mustache!!!” Funniest line ever shouted on television.
Also enjoyed “Scrape that hippy shit off your lip” – Generation kill is a great show thats realistically demonstrates the asshole to cool human ratio in the Marine Corps.
Although ALL the marines I have personally known have been total assholes, I always imagined some must be decent folks.

The Swedish minister of justice, Beatrice Ask, told the Swedish national radio that she believed that The Pirate Bay did not give Sweden a good reputation :-/ (this time regarding the threats from IOC towards TPB).

We hope (and think) that’s wrong, so we now urge our users to tell her how they feel about the bay!

Please fill out the form below (and do alter the default text if you like) and press Send. Madame Ask will receive it as an official document, so please do be careful with what you write, as it will be a public document.

And we love you for showing us support!

Who would want to buy the DVD. Its not like a movie or something is it(Its the best Olympics Opening Ceremony I have ever seen thou). And I didn’t see any Official Olympics streams in any sites.I googled for an hour just so I could watch an ad free version of the show. Mr. #17 is obviously related to IOC.

You are confusing China with the IOC.

The International Olympics Committee is not China. They are a separate organization that moderates the Olympics.

Even so, most of the above comments are still valid regarding China and their approach to the world.

No, China is not exactly for free information. They selectively enforce copyright. The purpose of file-sharing is freedom of information, and how could any totalitarian state stand for such a purpose? Remember: The Pirate Bay is blocked in China.

I’ve been keeping track of TPB torrents for Olympics 2008. Before the news got out, there was only a sprinkle of Olympics 2008 torrents. After the news about TPB, the number Olympic 2008 torrents increased significantly. I think the news story encouraged more torrents to be posted.

I heard a guy say in a fourm once that he enjoyed living in china because of how relaxed their policies were. His example was that he’s subscribed to a PSP gaming magazine, and included in the magazine is a DVD which is full of all the games that they reviewed.

We already know the Swedish Police and Politicians can be bought. Tell the IOC to fill in the appropriate form and post a check.

The IOC got Youtube to take down a Free Tibet video that China complained about. The IOC are scum.

First they got a little girl to mime for the opening ceremony, i think the present project is trying to digitally craete the Swedish wrestler who threw his medal… to say how fantastic China is and they are just scared people will see through that “mastery” as well.

Little commie yellow bastards remember one thing, the great wall of China as well as the great _firewall_ of China + all the control that goes with it will only be in your country, you cant control shit out of there, least of all here.

You can order a DVD of the opening ceremonies from NBC, so I’m sure they’re trying to protect that revenue as well. But, as stated, the Chinese are the biggest stealers in the world. They don’t buy ANYTHING.

Leave the Swedes alone!

When you say ‘after the fireworks’, you mean after the digitally-re-created-faked-for-3-billion-people fireworks?

At least Athens got it right.

But nothing can beat Sydney’s Opening Ceremony. Spectacular.

Question: What with the internet DOGS controlling EVERYTHING over in China, could Fred Blogs living somewhere in Beijing set up a VPN through TorrentFreeedom, or Relakks, say? Or is the government too paranoid because that means they can’t control the access Fred gets?

And how many torrent sites in CHINESE are there? Or possibly specifically for Chinese? I can’t imagine there’d be many. (TPB?)

@ 1 – God

exactly, they don’t respect any copyright, they don’t even sell game consoles there in the knowledge people will only buy counterfit games.

To get all up about TPB is stupid. The Swedish minister should be telling the IOC to stop wasting time. If it was live video I could understand but it’s a recording.
