Yes it is although the AR15 is my choice. 1 or 10, 100, 1000 ppl armed to the teeth is not enough to make change. It needs to be a collective choice by millions of Americans to make a move on Washington PEACEFULLY.
In addition, if you are suggesting violent revolution you might as well put the last nail in the American coffin. Our GOV is well prepared for an uprising. See continuity of government, REX84, and probably a whole bunch of other shit we dont even know about.
Heed your own advice and stop being an arse on the Internet.
The AC that constantly has condescending comments while mentioning the "Wealthy Anonymous Fascists" comments like where he/she lives is perfect and I was just curious where this utopia was.
"you fix your country" Sure no problem. As easy as stopping piracy.
This leak actually lets the White House claim credit and look good.
Look good? Creating a malware/virus that if it was used against us would have been a jumping point to cry cyber-terrorism?
Being a cyber-terrorist makes us look good... how?
So terrorist actions from a combined effort with Israel and US is a good thing?
Lets ask the rest of the world how that looks. Because IMHO it makes us look, yet again, like hypocrites.
Just imagine:
NY Times reveal many of the details behind Stuxnet, including confirming that it was a program driven by the Iran, with a lot of help from Pakistan.
It was supposed to just sit in the computers at the power plant, confusing the hell out of the Americans.
Guess where the bombs would be flying tomorrow, and we would be told how we need to give up our privacy to keep us safe from the cyber-terrorists.
No these are just two examples that have reached "acceptable" numbers from the likes of you. There are plenty of others that, gasp, have made 5, 10, 20k. I know, I know, chump change for your kind, but enough to start recording, and possible start a small tour. Still dont get it. Keep on not getting it and we will see where you are in 20 years.
If you're open, human and awesome and you give people a real reason to buy, they will.
That concept is so foreign to the legacy players they just cant comprehend it. They have been screwing artists and their fans over for so long they don't know anything different.
"Could you be any more of a broken record or a whiny bitch?" Pot, meet kettle.
"Is there even one honest bone in that chubby body of yours?" - Thats just weird. You have a crush on him. You are like the little girl that kicks the boys shins she likes. Awww its so cute.

"You can make fun of them all you like, but perhaps it would be better if you sat down and just tried to figure out how fucking huge their job is, and why Google being gently obstructionist is a pain in the ass for them."

Re: ...despite being fearful of those "dangerous" machines
Yeah they just went right to the public:
The automobile industry eventually began waging a psychological campaign to get pedestrians out of the streets. First, it invented the term "jaywalking" (a reference to the idea of jaybirds as loud idiots) to make fun of pedestrians walking in the street as being stuck in the past.
Second, schools helped train new generations of children to avoid the streets when the American Automobile Association (AAA) became the top supplier of safety curriculum for U.S. schools in the 1920s, Norton explained. The AAA also spread the idea of school safety patrols to help keep kids out of the street.
The popular phrase "America's love affair with the automobile" eventually came along in a TV show called "Merrily We Roll Along" as part of the DuPont Series of the Week in 1961 — a time when DuPont owned a large percent of stock in General Motors. American comedian and actor "Groucho" Marx used the phrase in his narration of the show until it stuck in people's minds.
"people will not pay for as long as they can get it for free." - Thats such bullshit AC, and you know it.
I can get everything free. I still shell out 200 a month on phone, internet and DirectTv. Everything I see can be downloaded VIA the interwebnets. Guess what? It is not worth my time to replace all that content with downloads. Also guess what? If there were more outlets for content, and not just the crap out there now, complete catalogs, I would gladly pay for access to that. But ohhhh noooooss the pie-rates may copy it and put it out there for freee ohs my gods. Concentrate on the users like myself that will pay, instead of those who wouldn't pay, and even given a place to do so still would not.
"and when the "alternate financing" models are not paying the way"
Dont worry, technology will catch up to the point that we will no longer need to spend 200 million dollars to make a movie that looks great. I cant wait for that time.
Creators do so because they love to do it. Once tools are readily available to make their final product high quality, your precious little studios will fall and no one will care because there will still be quality entertainment out there at an affordable price.
- That was wonderful!
- Bravo!
- I loved that!
- Ah, that was great!
- Well, it was pretty good.
- Well, it wasn't bad...
- Uh, there were parts of it that weren't very good though.
- It could have been a lot better.
- I didn't really like it.
- It was pretty terrible.
- It was bad.
- It was awful!
- It was terrible!
- Take 'em away!
- Bah, boo!
- Boo!
