"I get the impression you actually think you're convincing people with this "piracy doesn't pay" nonsense.
If it didn't pay, there wouldn't be so many sites doing it. Seriously, duh."
One could argue that fanfiction and fanart are forms of piracy, as people use IP of others without paying them a penny.
And if that's the case, why are there so many fanfiction and fanart sites out there with people not making much (if anything) off of it? Seriously, duh.
"I know you're bitter about the golden age of piracy being long gone, but I'd suggest you look in the mirror when thinking about who the moron truly is."
It's been gone for hundreds of years now. Only recently has it come back over by Africa where people hijack boats and such.

"Shutting down the servers wouldn't censor them in any way, shape or form."
I'm sure that if you say that lie often enough it will help you believe it and sleep better at night.
"They can go on ignoring the real world experiment in lawlessness unfolding in Somalia"
Um, bob, have you paid ANY attention to Somalia at all? did you hear that the lawless people of Somalia are getting arrested and driven out by the people of Africa?
bob, you should take 10 seconds to look up the history of the MPAA... You know how Hollywood got started?

Man...
I'd rather deal with 100 psychos with guns, 1000 terrorists and the crappy health care system than the DoJ/NSA/FBI.
How sad is that?

Not really, no.
I can turn on the radio to listen to music and record it if I have the tools, therefore, I'm "taking" music without paying for it.
I can call a person greedy when they really are greedy.

If someone infringes on a copyright, the original is still there.
If someone takes a car, the original is not there.
but apparently you can't see the difference.
Not to mention that you still don't admit that your precious masters at the MPAA broke copyright and patent law to get started.

Re: Re: Re: Why should political parties be above the law?
patents is not property, bob.
Learn the difference, bob.
Or do I need to use the rolled up newspaper again?
If you make a copy of something, the original is still there, bob. That's what you don't seem to understand.
If I make a copy of your car, you still have your car, I just have a copy of it.
If I take your car, you no longer have a car.
Do you see the difference?
