a good reason to stop pirating movies (off bittorrent)

ed:

Nothing new there. Downloading movies has always been somewhat risky for the supplier.

"oh im proud to be a canadian...where I know im free...to download pirated material"

[quote=Bucknub]i dont know about anything, but i know music is safe to DL[/quote:a7d7d]its all good to download what ever you want, your not allowed to upload any of it.
but i have a feeling it will change soon, so if i were you i would download as much as possible.

and i am a elitetorrent member, with over 150gig's down and up

um yeah I wouldn't be too proud to be an elitetorrent member now cool:

No? All the fed attention just means it was that much better than everything else.

why is ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement ) involved?

hopefully a new one springs up

http://www.elitetorrents.org/

fbi is involved, also homeland security, lol. i'm guessing because some movies downloaded illegaly also involve foreign films and other outside of the usa companies

I don't know why Homeland Security should be involved in it, last time I checked downloading stuff wasn't the same as car bombing buildings.

I'm not sure why ICE would be involved either. Perhaps some of the uploaders were Canadian.

uploading and downloading movies illegaly across borders...duh

Possibly, but shouldn't they be doing something like patrolling the damn borders?

No wonder there are so many illegals here.

"Hey guys, want to go enforce US Immigration laws today?"
"Nah, let's just eat donuts and pick on US citizens"

....


"The FBI remains committed to working with our partners in law enforcement at all levels and private industry to identify and take action against those responsible."

"Operation D-Elite is being conducted jointly by ICE and the FBI as part of the Computer And Technology Crime High Tech Response Team ("CATCH"), a San Diego task force of specially trained prosecutors and law enforcement officers who focus on high-tech crime. Federal and state member agencies of CATCH include ICE, the FBI, the Department of Justice, the San Diego District Attorney's Office, San Diego Police Department, the San Diego Sheriff's Department, and San Diego County Probation."

Do you guys even read the articles?

t-spy is next annoy: i hope not though, that's my #1 source for everything

Sometimes.

I doubt t-spy will get shut down any time soon. I can't remember the last time I had a transfer break 10k on that. There are much juicier targets out there.

I have been wondering, though, who the hell invited the FBI to ET?

You find out, i know 133,000 people who will linch them.

torrent spy is what hooks me up. I love it. Ever notice how its just a never ending cycle? some kind of downloading comes out (napster) then after about a year it attracts alot of attention in the media and gets shut down but just before it shuts down something else pops up (morpheus/kazzaa) then when the same happens to it something else pops up (bit torrent). MIRC fits in there somewhere too im just not sure where. I don't see how they can't figuer out it will never work. These programs can be made in a few weeks yet it can take over a year for court proceedings to go trough.

ok. i hope you're right about this, or Ill say it was 1080jibbers fault as they're hauling me off to jail.

this is going to turn bit torrent into kazzaa where everyone downloads but noone will upload which will in effect kill bit torrent because it relies so heavly on it.
