P2P File Sharing News Comments - RIAA 2006-12-08
Hey, despite being in with the tyrrany, at least he isn’t a hypocrit. I bet the kids got grounded for at least a week when they got busted, and they probably were like most users who get sued — leeches who don’t manage their incoming folder (which modern P2P applications exploit to foster the health of their networks) and neglect the ip blocker.
Like this bit from the TinyMixTapes article:
Dad: Son?
Son: Oh… ummm… I was just finishing up an, uh… Excel document so I cank eep track of all my ponies.
Dad: Oh no! Oh God, no! Did I just see SoulSeek up on your screen?
Son: (Looks down) I???m sorry dad. I mean, you give me all these free CDs from Warner, but frankly, your music sucks.
Dad: I???m so disapointed in you, son. You are taking an artist???s intellectual property, you know that, right?
Son: I know, I know. I???m really sorry… Uh… dad, how much do artists make off of cd sales?
Dad: Uh, way less than 10 percent. muHaHahaha!!!
Son: More ponies for us, eh?
Dad: Yeah, more ponies.

Hey it looks like the MPAA and RIAA copyright mafia have rigged the ‘Nike+iPod Sport Sport Kit’ to be a ‘Nike+iPod Sport Spy Kit’ to combat F2F trading over short-range Wi-Fi.

Way too much sueing. It may appear to be pro-P2P, but it is not. It is definitly anti-RIAA so the RIvTP lawyers gladly help. It may affect open-source P2P like Emule even after a shutdown or hand-off if any of the individual developers has an expensive car or house and it would be a RIAA victim sueing instead of the RIAA.. I wouldn’t be surprised if the RIAA lawyers pitch-in with legal help to help their own victims take down P2P developers. Great RIAA (both the music pirate supsect and the RIvTP and other lawyers) pawns in their attacks against the developers.

He’s Piracy-4-Money, so I really don’t give a damn. I like the ‘laughing all the way to jail’ part though he he. Sounds like the Pirate Bay ‘legal threats’ page.

This one is an inital Piracy-4-Free release, followed by Piracy-4-Money. It involved screeners. Wish he didn’t sell them. Pre-Theater-Release Screeners are wickedly cool.
