Poor Anti-Pirates: E-mail About Leaked IFPI Email Gets Leaked

torrentfreak.com — The infamous anti-piracy organization IFPI sent an email to warn its members NOT to any send email to colleagues that use an xxx@ifpi.com email address because that domain is now owned by their rivals from the "International Federation of Pirate Interests". Unfortunately the members did not listen, and even the email about the leak leaked

  • JordanTW90, on 11/23/2007, -4/+83Who needs black Friday when dvds are free every day of the year?
  • thegreathal, on 11/23/2007, -0/+63I want an ifpi.com email account.
  • autosovereign, on 12/06/2008, -5/+50they shouldn't have made this info public yet, so they can get more emails. now everyone over there will be sure to double-check that they aren't sending emails to @ifpi.com :(
  • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -0/+28I'd like to know too, I have some Ninja things I need to get done.
  • jjb123, on 11/23/2007, -1/+29Basically ***** anything ending in an A or I.
  • mahoua, on 11/23/2007, -0/+24yo mama
  • spyrochaete, on 11/23/2007, -2/+25The Pirate Bay never concealed this fact, and they clearly have a link to the "real" IFPI.org on http://www.ifpi.com/. TPB obtained the domain legally and fairly, precisely as they operate in Sweden and have always respected their countries laws.
  • JoshLeafe, on 11/23/2007, -1/+21All the staff had been notified not to send to @ifpi.com anyway..
  • spyrochaete, on 11/23/2007, -1/+14If you ask the question you're probably already a member.
  • Picer, on 11/23/2007, -2/+15We Pirates have nothing to worry about with idiots like these, they must employ apes at there computers or somethink...
  • Damian91, on 11/23/2007, -1/+12Quite sad when you live in a time where piracy is considered helpful when it's obvious the help isn't wanted. :s
  • colto, on 11/23/2007, -0/+11Vagina ends in an A :)
  • inactive, on 11/23/2007, -0/+11"I’ve always doubted the rumors that most people who work at these anti-piracy organizations are too dumb to tie their own shoes, but I’m starting to believe it now." Yeah, and the heavy hand of the industry is likely to turn me into a pirate simply because they are being such douchebags!
  • jjb123, on 11/23/2007, -1/+12yo papa

    oh wait...
  • yetAnotherCroc, on 11/24/2007, -0/+11This War on Piracy(TM) is really turning into the Show of the Millennium! Just when you think it couldn't get any more hilarious they take it to the next level. *Goes and gets more popcorn*
  • LogicBomB, on 11/23/2007, -4/+10Just because anti-pirating companies are going too far these days doesn't mean you shouldn't have to pay for anything. Unlike music, you can't support the movie industry by seeing them in concert or buying the t-shirt. Sure, download ***** movies but at least pay for the good ones.
  • Icyfenix, on 11/23/2007, -0/+6You know, it's probably someone on the inside ...
  • NJank, on 11/23/2007, -0/+6thanks for releasing me from that moral bind. I was really worried about what to pay for, but now that I know I can use my own relative judgments I can confidently pay for nothing as I don't think any movies are any 'good'. Yippee moral relativism!
  • MarkOfTheDead, on 11/23/2007, -0/+5Lot of good that did.
  • monikerd, on 11/24/2007, -0/+4perhaps on some level pirates are "the bad guys", but they are doing a brilliant job showing the incompetence and immorality of their adversaries. There is no justification in braking any law. Definitely not by those who are supposed to uphold them. It appears to me that the ifpi/mediadefender/.. are the only ones acting like crooks and liars. What are they trying to do, shut down tpb at any cost? What would that even change if they were successful. That's like trying to shut down everybody who communicates the locations of speedcontrols.
  • MarkOfTheDead, on 11/23/2007, -0/+4Don't be scared, the reply button doesn't bite.
  • dizam, on 11/23/2007, -2/+5If I download a movie, and I really like it, I buy the DVD. As Simple as that.
  • Lunarbunny, on 11/23/2007, -2/+5Most anything from Pixar?
  • thunderclap, on 11/23/2007, -2/+4Give a definition of a good movie and I will. Last time I noticed, most movies from Hollywood are worthless.
  • luchid, on 11/23/2007, -1/+3And he used there instead of their.
  • luchid, on 11/23/2007, -1/+3Wow you really have an irrational hatred for Apple branded music players, don't you. You do know they play regular MP3s just fine, don't you?
  • Inferny, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1You are disturbed, watching something like that....
  • Atomic1fire, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1what they should do is get people to know the laws and attempt to stop the reasons that people pirate
    such as
    1)common misconceptions
    such as its only illegal if you sell it which is just idiotspeak for I dont know anything about copyright and a freind who didnt know anything either showed me limewire
    2)price
    create cheaper music
    3) label killing actions
    create better music
  • kazamx, on 11/23/2007, -1/+2easy. A good movie is one that you enjoy.
  • jpohl, on 11/24/2007, -1/+2America?
    Canada?
  • PHovey, on 11/23/2007, -0/+1Yes.
  • thebrawl, on 11/23/2007, -1/+2Before I send an email, I look in the TO field, to make sure I didn't accidentally type 'ifpi.com' or something
  • ltkerr0r, on 11/23/2007, -0/+1hard
  • Atomic1fire, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1most pirates are idiots as well
    thinking its only illegal if you sell it
    which is a flawed load of crap to begin with because they dont take into account that they still are not paying for it
    and are still making illegal copys for personal use by downloading it off limewire
  • Mankar, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1Try a proxy.

  • VegaObscura3, on 11/23/2007, -4/+4How do you know if a movie is good or not, before you see it?
  • inactive, on 11/25/2007, -1/+1***** the stupid little inbred 15 year old ***** that uses a racist drawing as a sign of rebelion.
  • ganjadude4391, on 11/24/2007, -1/+1limewire is still around?
  • mllawso, on 11/23/2007, -5/+3No, you support them by going to see it in the theatre before you illegally download it.
  • ltkerr0r, on 11/23/2007, -3/+1edit
  • sgoogle, on 11/23/2007, -6/+3***** initialisms (except TPB)
