Is why I like to have multiple aliases and always connect via vpn... harder to sue me if they can't figure out who I really am.
On that note, it would be really cool if there was a TOR-based github alternative (or even an I2P-based one) for hosting project repos somewhere that take-downs have no effect and servers can't be seized. Anybody aware of anything like that? then again, I'm not even sure how I would configure git / ssh to use a TOR-based server lol
Those silly old suits. The world left them behind long ago.
Good luck sueing someone that lives in an unheard of African country with a population of one. This is exactly why people release software anonymously.
laughs in Russian
lol good luck tracking down someone who releases software into the wild.
Brb downloading the piratebay on the piratebay
Sie the stupid animal that crawled out of the water so we evolved into humans, who can pirate digital goods.
It's not a serious suggestion, they're just using this as a "fuck off" response to the record labels.
"One two three not it."
Sue the mine in China that supplied the raw materials that went into the dielectric material in the capacitors in the power supply of the computer that facilitated the downloading of illegal content….
Those materials wouldn't exist if the Big Bang didn't happen. So sue whoever made that happen.

I sue everyone in Muricaland that enables tech to pirate. Including ISPs and record labels themselves they are the content providers.
Really funny because you can't sue a gun maker for the guns they sold killing people. I say funny but I mean that it's so depressing I have to laugh to maintain sanity.
Well if that argument works out for the studios, Oneida better get ready because I'll be seeing them in court. After all, they made the spoons that I used to eat the ice cream that made me fat.
The same people that would use the "they made the software that was used for infringement" will be the ones stating that "the manufacturer of this firearm is not responsible for it being used in this mass-shooting".
Kinda funny how the main driving point behind their argument is "does this affect me and my bottom line"
Why is it always that a torrentfreak link is posted here and it's something negative and fear mongering?
Because part of their job is sharing all the batshit people argue in court that affects the space?
Whose job? And why does inconsequential rubbish that will be laughed at need to be reported?
Torrent Freak's.
They cover news in the torrent and piracy space. This is very clearly news. It's literally the whole purpose of the site.
They should sue movie producers. After all, they regularly supply the pirates with fresh wares.
Someone doesn't understand peer2peer filesharing. Next they will sue Microsoft for allowing pirated thing to run...
