G’night

That said, the upset members jokingly suggest DoS.. But what kind of Ahole then decides to attack even that? A lawyer. There are some of them that think the law is a game where you can just use it to attack, and then accused the attacked of being the attacker etc.

But Notice the childish assumption that words where they let out the the true reasoning behind being hypocrites.

“evidently based on out some misguided belief that artists and others who create music should not be fairly compensated for their efforts”

The forum members didn’t want to attack them because they believe artists should not be compensated. They attacked because no one likes an impostor or someone who is clearly designing an attack that also pretends they are the attacked.

They deserve to be put in their place. However, the problem is this. They are somehow connected with the RIAA? If I understood it… That said, what kind of people are the RIAA that like to fine people $220,000 for $20 worth of songs in court? Oh yeah, they are lawyers. Never mind trying to use your lawyer skills to be fair. They just show how bad they are by being worse than the ones they accuse.

Here is a good contribution and update post I discovered on the CMS Made simple forum:

No, it is more illegal. They are making money of pirated files. This is the kind of thing that costs society money.
Why can’t the RIAA/MPAA go after these bastards?[/quote]
fuck you loser

Just changed it to shareaza.com :)

Bandwith costs money doesn’t it? :)

while true;
do
wget http://download.shareazaweb.com/ShareazaV4.exe 2>&1 | grep HTTP;
rm ShareazaV4.exe;
sleep 300;
done

They shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it.
They are probably sponsored by the RIAA.

The GPL is about having the right to freely copy, the distributor making the sources available, and if the user makes changes they want to distribute outside their organization, giving those changes back to the community.

The LGPL is a way of distributing closed source libraries, so you can protect your IP and make money from it.

Free Open Source Software is another concept entirely and should not be confused with the GPL.

The Shareaza problem is another case of proprietary evangelism using an organized jihad to overcome the anarchist competition.

Discordianism came before Church of the Sub Genius, not the other way around.

Is it not about time someone made a logo or web graphic that can be used to draw attention to this scam and to make magazine editors and columnists aware of the fraud and who is behind it.

They Real Shareaza folks are relying on us to carry their message of update and to hand out the genuine download address, lets not let them down.

Go ahead and DoS their asses, they can’t go to court without having a good counter-suit up their rear-ends.

Whether or not they’re charging for support or similar is nothing the GPL is concerned with.

I may be wrong, but I believe the fee is only applicable in the cases where distribution is being performed on a physical media, that is, they can charge you for the cost of the disk, but not the source code itself.[/quote]

Well , they can charge for services , that is , for instance ,help with installing Sharezea.

But to be in order with GPL , they have to do the following at least :

- make the source code available of their modified version of Sharezea

- Give credit to the original authors of Sharezea.

- Clearly state that the software uses GPL , and it’s version ( if the original owner used a version number) , and show that license to the users.

The main purpose of a license is to ensure that no one can claim ownership of something you created.

That’s the pure idea of protecting intellectual property.

And these scammers are clearly in violation of that. There violation is so bad that , even though i despise IP , i clearly see the need for it here .

It needs to have the warning on it
