I never liked that little tard tapping his watch saying how much “waiting sucks” -give us money so you don’t have to wait. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to punch that little bastard. Honestly I don’t mind waiting to download (Megaupload, HotFile, ect) but just that little manipulative tool they use- which looking at it, they are gonna have a tough time explaining that scheme to officials if they want to appear legit.

If I make it, it’s mine to give away. Which your bright idea would only hurt. Also, “inception” is just a word. Much like “dvdrip”. They aren’t limited in use, your system would end up removing legitimate things just for having those words in the file name. Also, have you seen some wallpaper packs? I downloaded one awhile back, single RAR file. OVER 200 mb. That thing was loaded. Ditto theme packs to customize my copy of Windows to my liking.

You don’t ever think things through do you? You just throw ideas out there, thinking they’re great, without pausing for a moment and seeing just how bad they are and the potential they have to be either misused or cause legitimate harm to legitimate things.

Thus, you’re the greatest example of the geniuses thinking up these laws. Clueless. With no actual knowledge of technology or anything really in general.

In a counter-move the file-hosting company RapidShare has hired lobbyists of its own. TorrentFreak got a chance to talk to RapidShares general counsel Daniel Raimer, to find out what their main motives are and how open Washington is to their message.Source:http://torrentfreak.com/rapidshare-fights-for-the-cloud-in-washington-111006/ [...]

Are they next going to shut down all of the Pharmacies that get robbed for drugs because they don’t have their own police force to stop it.

In the end its all about money. Congress is crooked, on the take for whatever they can demand.. The laws and regulations come about by who has the most to pay off the congressman or senator. If the pirate lobby has a bigger fund, then congress will modify the law to fit the needs of the pirate. Rapidshare has got the game figured out.

If all the file hosts got together and pooled their money, I bet every crooked politician could be bought.
