Wow this is crazy. I'm sure google doesn't care there too powerful and have there hands in more places than even the government can keep track of. However these guys are getting screwed for sharing torrents. Its not illegal to download a backup of something that you own. For instance if I own a copy of 4 Rooms DVD which is a hard to find DVD in stores anyway and it gets scratched when I download it and watch it I'm not breaking the law even though I may have had to go to a site that most people do break the law to get what I needed. I do understand it does happen there and probably most of the time people download but just because the industries sick of sewing users doesn't mean they can turn it around and go after the providers. Comcast Lost a lawsuit because the were blocking these torrents, and they lost because people use them for more than piracy.
ANY Linux Flavor comes down faster on a torrent.
Want to stop piracy make prices biased on income. Art in some form of fashion is desired by every one, and now all people can afford to get it at its price. So instead of just going well my life sucks and I guess I don't deserve to have this at my $5.15/hour job (Minimum wage US), people get it in what ever way is currently available. How many people bought blank tapes and actually used them to make mix tapes that they didn't give away or share with some one. Well should you sue the tape making industry because I'm sure they knew people used there product to make copies of copyrighted material. Its just a case of greed in the corporate world gone wrong again. This is why the whole economy is collapsing in the first place. The same basic greed is every where and people don't invest because of fear of it getting worse. That just makes things fall apart more.
I'm sick of it all damn the powers that be there all evil douche bags that could care less about the fulfillment of the lives of others.
