Comments on: Where’s the Warning Letter for the OiNK Uploaders? http://torrentfreak.com/wheres-the-warning-letter-for-the-oink-uploaders-080728/ Torrent News, Torrent Sites and the latest Scoops Sat, 26 May 2012 09:35:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Fox http://torrentfreak.com/wheres-the-warning-letter-for-the-oink-uploaders-080728/#comment-483469 Fox Sun, 10 Aug 2008 15:16:18 +0000 http://torrentfreak.com/?p=3286#comment-483469 Most people are not on the creative side of consumerism, and so they don't understand that lots of people put everything they have into their art. Copyright infringement is stealing, and there's no way you can explain your way around it. I'm not a big name artist, and you've probably never seen one of my paintings or photographs, but it would rock the boat greatly for someone else to make money off my hard work even when I don't. Ultimately, I blame the ISPs who get much of their money from constant downloaders who would otherwise spend the monthly subscription money on CDs, DVDs, games, ect. Online IS the new medium, and as such, i would want my cut.

The court held that the measures that german penal code/regulations allow for "real" criminal acts like snoop the conversation habbits of a suspect (i.e. IP address -> RL address matching actions of the prosecutors office) are NOT reasonable since doing copyrightinfringement like that is petty crime "Bagatellkriminalität" where the court that forbid the DA to get the address data compared it to the "stealing of a pack of chewing gum" which would also not warrent such harsh measures like the MAFIAA would like to see just so their obsolete business modell bets governmental protection from evolution and technological advancements.

While me already suspected something like that (+), it is important to point that fact out when reporting about the case! Some rookie filesharers might otherwise get worried to much that the MAFIAA might be already able to treat uploaders like GWB that puts people he does not liek with out trial and without evidence behind bars and throws away the key. MAFIAA does not have THAT power yet, and you people do not need to accept when they go for such a law like bush did. The radical islamists might not like most of you radical christians, but they will not bomb you jsut becuase you infringe copyrights on shitty product from MAFIAA! Jul 29, 2008 at 09:28 by Dave

A few boom jackets in Executive offices would make the world a much better place, and then those who go would at least deserve it. Is there any way we can put a Jihad on the RCIAA?

Well in that case I'm taking Brittney, Girls Aloud and all the stupid, crap-making, pop-trash, feckwits, who can't tell one end of a musical scale from the other, to court for EXACTLY THE SAME FECKING REASON! I am sick and tired of hearing this crap about "Oh dear the music industry is dying". No your crap pop-music industry is dying, 'cos little Johnny and little Mary rip MP3s of eDonkey and Kazza on Mummy and Daddy's connection. Sorry but other forms of underground music, like indie and metal are thriving because now we the fans can communicate directly with those we choose to support, we pay them for their hard work directly knowing that some fat-arsed, greedy prick music exec ain't flying down to Rio with his bimbo secretary on my and the band's hard earned cash!!!! “Conspiracy to Defraud the Music Industry”??!?!

Make laws so silly and so broad (like, prohibit copying information) that practically everybody is "guilty". 2. Make the punishments severe beyond any measure (like going to jail for sending someone a file). 3. Pick only the people you dont like for enforcement and then make examples of them by punishing them "to the maximum extent under the law". 3. ??? 4. Fourth Reich!!!1 err... I meant Profit!!!

We had you're back with the whole "England is going to invade Iraq whether the UN likes it or not" thing but piracy is where our friendship ends. Like how I just blamed all our problems on our only allies? Americans are against illegal downloading.
