i downloaded a game using a popular bittorrent client to check it out. i clicked on the finished file and got notified there was a virus and a trojan detected, i deleted the whole file and that was that.
i received a letter from my isp one week later threatening me. it took two days to remove the trojan that got in but the virus was blocked by FREE software….i may have even bought the game to try, but because of the letter i received, there’s no chance of that, and any other gameing software i may have purchased that is represented by the entertainment software association …the entity that reported. i will just play free games or games not associated with esa.

Mininova fails again – back to The Pirate Bay.

People people people…wake up and smell the coffee…piracy is now, and has EVER been, an UNDERGROUND activity…it cannot survive in the light of the industry, and it cannot EVER be a mainstream thing to do. The bottom line, that nobody wants to face is that piracy IS illegal and has been for years. I hate to be the bearer of the Devil’s news, but if you want change in the copyright scene, you are going to have to FIGHT for it..on LEGAL grounds, in courtrooms, and in Parlimentary and Congressional arenas. The ONLY way ANYTHING is going to change is to have the Copyright Act either overturned, or overhauled to reflect current day. And by reflect current day, I mean include language that outlaws the usual methods that are used by the media industries when dealing with artists. If this fight is TRULY over artists and customers rights, then y’all are going at it the wrong way. The path to change lays down the legislative route. Without doing it the legal way, you’re never going to see the change you want. So…lawyers that are reading this..you might want to get busy. Those of you who have access to lawmakers..I’d give some thought to encouraging them to review the Copyright laws…in depth and at length. It’s time to put the corporate pricks in their place, and do it the only way that works..by force of government. The law is the only weapon that works against big industry..I think that is…as the age old word goes..self evident.

“In a few words, these guys (TF) have been playing with our emotions for convenience.”

LOL.

I assume that you are cynic for getting fun from a serious situation, or maybe you are retarded for not getting the message…

Dingo said it right. TF on purpose allows the intrusion of trolls from entertainment industry cartels, who sabotage the discussions and advertise misinformation and lies about filesharing.

Now; why does TF “allegedly” being a pro-filesharing site allow something so destructive for the filesharing movement?

That is obviously a big contradiction… don’t you think?

“Sure, as email addresses cannot be created anonymously or simply faked.”

That a stupid comment.

Email addresses CAN be created anonymously. Get a clue.

“why people dont go underground with ddl hosters, usenet, and private trackers is beyond me.”

Why people have this delusion about private trackers somehow being underground is beoynd me. Get it through your elitist thick heads that you are still broadcasting your IP address all over the Internet, no matter what tracker you use: it’s simply how the protocol works!

“In a few words, these guys (TF) have been playing with our emotions for convenience.”

LOL.

“Is there no way to link email addresses to the names we use to post, to ensure the fakes are caught before publishing?”

Sure, as email addresses cannot be created anonymously or simply faked. What a brilliant idea again.
