I was told by a number of IT guys that as long as I don’t clog up the network an keep my speed and usage low, I’ll go under the radar.

besides, there’s no way they can filter rapidshare and megaupload downloads.

So my university obviously isn’t stopping me.

Why do you think people come over seas to go to college in the US.

Another thing that wasn’t mentioned is that many schools have some equipment capable of reducing illegal p2p use, they just to choose not to fully implement them due to previously established policies.

#1 I wouldnt make music only for money

#2 You dont just sell people plastic discs and expect to be rich

#3 The record companies are no longer needed, bittorrent takes there place and does a better job then they ever could for 100% free

#4 The record companies choose to no longer compete, and sell out garbage. They make you buy the same things in different formats that you want. They rather ruin your life, sue your grandmother and children, pay off politicians and monopolize the market to rip you off every step of the way. They want the internet policed. They dont want there scam of ‘buy before you try… no refunds’ being destroyed. They dont pay the real artist shit, they basically rape artist for there music, steal there ‘rights’ so they can sell and take 90% of the profit for the next 50 years.

The list goes on and on.

Why dont you do a little research for yourself, your exactly where the industry wants you.. like cattle waiting to consume whatever they slap in front of you.

top executive says OMGZ our stuff is being pirated!!

lower executives say ITS OK WE FIX IT

those executives say OH SHIT.. UHH.. LETS HAMMER THE UNIVERSITIES THERE EASY!

universities get a whole bunch of shit.. they dont wanna f*ckin deal with it.. so there like.. OK HOW CAN WE MAKE THIS PROB GO AWAY?

they buy a big expensive peice of metal, shove it in there network infrastructure.. and now there ‘Doing Something’.

Its not about whats right or wrong.. its about doing something half ass and being able to report back that you did something about the problem.

pass the buck.. because nobody gives a real shit.

“The Higher Education Opportunity (HEO) Act of 2008 requires US universities and colleges to undertake measures to reduce sharing, and go after students who use filesharing networks to share.”

After the fascists conquer the universities, they’ll get to primary schools and kindergardens:

“The Primary Education Opportunity (PEO) Act of 2009 requires US kindergardens and primary schools to undertake measures to reduce sharing between students, and eventually go after children who share.”

Sharing and caring is pure stalinism. Copyright censorship is the real freedom. The sooner we beat our children into accepting that simple truth, the less problems will they pose to the society during their education.

@7 lmfao!

You dont need a “proof” for that. Its self evident. Those industries are based on what they call “copyright”, which actually means a copy prohibition for everybody else. A prohibition on private sharing/copying is a kind of large-scale for-profit censorship. I dont know any example of forced large-scale censorship where everyone else _didnt_ lose. Its bad by definition, its bad in practice.

History repeating itself?

noobs teaching noobs.. *sigh*

Of course people still bring files from home and trade with usb sticks anyway. This is actually faster and safer.

Also, something called the “Higher Education Opportunity Act” has no reason to deal with and should not be dealing with piracy. In fact, not spending money on stopping piracy leaves more money to go towards education. Why are the people in charge of America so stupid?
