Total bs
Hollywood just can't face the truth that it's ridiculously expensive to go to a movie, and they've lost their originality, I mean just look at how many remakes there are now. This could get very bad, very fast.....

What a epic waste of time and effort on The Federal Bureau of Investigation's part, they will never stop piracy... :hmm:
Besides megaupload.com really... they would have been smarter to move against piratebay/utorrent... But that my opinionDownloads : 0 || Uploads : 0 || Rep Power : 4749 || Posts : 157 || Thanks : 11 || Thanked 133 Times in 31 Posts

well... the funny part about this is... they didn't just shut it down because of copyright crap... no... they added money laundry and conspiracy to it...
americans need to finally wake up... and start a new revolution... or this shit won't end
@stoner...
they can't touch utorrent... as theat is just a client... and there are a lot who use it for legal stuff...
piratebay is out of reach... and kimble is already known(well at least those who used the internet for quite some time should know him or at least know his name) and he was once in jail... (some would say... once a criminal always a criminal)
so what is a better example than kimble for filesharing sites (founder of megaupload) ?!...Downloads : 17 || Uploads : 2 || Rep Power : 7485 || Posts : 1,193 || Thanks : 43 || Thanked 4,060 Times in 399 Posts
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs,
and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
So far, the Universe is winning.
