I'm sure Mike has an opinion on the matter. I haven't read enough of his articles on the matter to know EXACTLY how he feels, but the way I see it, it's not that he's actually AGAINST copyright, but he's against the abuse of copyright that's been going on.
I've never said he's lying about anything. That's on you. The articles I've read are usually no so much anti-copyright, but anti-copyright abuse.
And he's written several times (whether he believes it or not is not my concern) that he believes in copyright, but not the way it's currently being handled and the way that the MPAA/RIAA runs roughshod over the everyday people's concerns, wants and needs.
And while I might not agree 100% with everything that Mike says, I agree with enough of it, to keep reading his articles.
Now if it gets the point where I believe Mike is lying and all of his articles are BS, then I'll go elsewhere, because honestly, I have more important things to do with my time/life then spend time on a site that I think is being run by someone so dishonest.
If you have nothing better to do with your life, then I guess you can feel free to continue to rant and rave and tilt at the windmills.
My question is, if you find Mike so dishonest why come to "his" website?
Seriously. If I find a site and I feel the owner or one of the admins are dishonest and resort to lies all the time, I'll find somewhere else to hang my hat.
So my question to you is, why do you care so much about Mike and what he writes?
And if they had deleted the files, then the DOJ would have added "Destroying evidence" to the charges and used that fact to claim Kim knew he was doing wrong....
If I'm not mistaken I had heard that an earlier comic book movie (maybe X-Men 3 or X-Men Origins: Wolverine) had two or three different bonus scenes, and it depended on which theater you saw the movie in, was the extra scene you saw.
Not sure, but I heard that somewhere...
Also, what's to stop you from downloading the track and listening to it at home (either from a pirated version or when it comes out on DVD)?
Yeah, this sounds much like SOPA reborn. Now instead of shutitng down "infringing" sites without due process, it's shutitng down "smut" sites without due process.
I agree 100% (not that it matters if I do or not).
If they're not saying that she loved it or she recommends it, just that she used it, I don't see how anyone can stop them (as long as it's true).
It's stating a fact. While it also "unoffically" endorses them, that's just a side benefit.
I say that the Julia Child Foundation (or whatever they're called), go fark themselves. Just greedy bastiches trying to get money off of someone else's hard work.
A lying politician...
By the way... Welcome to America.

Can't win for losing.
Re: When I said get stuff off Drudge, I didn't mean the stupid stuff.
If Mike is soooo bad, you must be so much worse actually reading his articles and wasting your time posting on them.
Re: Slow down, Mike! You're burning up teh internets!
Did "Pirate Mike" spurn your affections towards him?
Is that the reason for all this stupidity?
Just curious.
Re: Funny post from a Friend
I'm going to steal this and post it on my FB.

Why?
I swear. The stupid is strong with them...
I guess God really does favor the retarded...
Penalty for EOLAs?
If they've already been told that their patent is invalid, and they try to sue someone else on the same grounds, that's gotta be a crime, right?
Hello?

And who determines if it's "smut"?

I mean it's not great, but that's way more than minimum wage.
