- Stormwern, on 11/07/2008, -1/+122It's like baseball, only if you strike out you get sued for $100,000
- omnithought, on 11/08/2008, -3/+82le ARRRRR!
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -4/+50I for one welcome all measures to break copyright laws and I'm all for teaching people how to do so.
- chompysweat, on 11/08/2008, -8/+45Sport? No. Dick size competition? Yes.
Thou with the biggest harddrive and fattest tube wins. - Seth024, on 11/08/2008, -4/+33Just like evading taxes is the national sport in Belgium.
Seriously, when you pay 50% tax on your income and 21% on everything you buy, you'll use every loophole in the book to avoid it. - inactive, on 11/08/2008, -3/+28its funny because its sound like french pirate
- 40yrOldVirgin, on 11/08/2008, -1/+25That wasn't French, Batman just talks funny in TDK.
- OropheR, on 11/08/2008, -0/+22Time to encrypt guys. I do not want the state, or anybody, to monitor my net activities.
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -3/+24He doesn't mean any of that, he fell on his keyboard.
- motters, on 11/08/2008, -5/+23Vivre la torrent!
- plagiats, on 11/08/2008, -3/+21Did you mean "Vivent les français !" (people), "Vive la France !" (country), or "Vive le français" (language) ?
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -0/+17Live a female flood?
- illDecree, on 11/08/2008, -1/+17i believe he's refering to online encryption, not drive encryption...
i could be wrong tho - bdav87, on 11/08/2008, -0/+15Paying does not eliminate 100% of the risk. example: windows genuine advantage
- Checkerd, on 11/08/2008, -0/+15But I'm le tired...
- givemereplay, on 11/08/2008, -2/+15There's nothing wrong with copyright. The problem is with people overcharging for content.
- kimbja98, on 11/08/2008, -0/+13If you're in the UK, it's technically illegal for you to even rip your CDs and do you honestly think the RIAA and the BPI don't get along?:p
- frieddonuts, on 11/08/2008, -0/+12Must be that time of the month.
- opticwind, on 11/08/2008, -1/+12Really? "Draconian"? Are we really going to call a 3-chance system "Draconian"?
- samuelcotterall, on 11/08/2008, -0/+10http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serge_Gainsbourg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amelie - unitedkronos, on 11/08/2008, -0/+9Then why not just arrest everyone who owns a iPod with a CD collection? At least the BPI has some better sense then to sue the weak and innocent, go to my local car boot and arrest the real pirates who sell MP3 CDs.
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -2/+11Well that's great. I was happier when I could blame the chain smoking drag queen voice on the French.
- Nephersir7, on 11/08/2008, -0/+9To live the torrent?
your french sucks.
"Vive les torrents" would be more appropriate - oxymoron69, on 11/08/2008, -0/+9If you're going to advertise, don't do it here. If you post a URL in your comments it should be relevant to the thread that you're posting in. A ***** blog about how to drive traffic to your site or sell things != piracy in france.
Keep relevant and on topic or GTFO, well unless your offtopicness is filled with hilarity, yours is not. - Heiminator, on 11/08/2008, -0/+9and we shall salute the lords of the interwebs with their mighty pron collections
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -0/+8well, i wouldn't like to get struck out for downloading something like epic movie, or some ***** flick like that...
- illDecree, on 11/08/2008, -0/+8yes, you are right.
i was issued a letter from the RIAA once, threatening to sue me
they caught me downloading LEGAL music, that happened to have the same name as one of their artist's songs...
besides, bittorrent is used for PLENTY of legal purposes, and is great technology - Bith8654, on 11/08/2008, -0/+8Some Spore owners would beg to differ.
- trashsportcat, on 11/08/2008, -0/+7http://www.truecrypt.org/
- Killbot2015, on 11/08/2008, -1/+8This article doesn't explain HOW piracy is a national sport. What does that even mean? I understand that maybe they pirate a lot of things but what about it makes it a sport? The article doesn't even imply that its competitive...
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -1/+7What the f are you talking about ?
- NodOfficer, on 11/08/2008, -1/+7French.
- inactive, on 11/08/2008, -1/+7They don't even talk about leagues, or rules, how do we know who's winning or losing, is there a Super Bowl??? If so, how does the playoff system work??
This is all very stressing. - jahsensie, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5there are many websites, communities spreading torrents, like the whole world do I guess...
the thing is Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is a singer and her husband does not want her albums to be pirated... :-) so he made a law that allows the authorities to disconnect an internet user when it's proved he had pirated some files. - jahsensie, on 11/08/2008, -1/+6Bonjour gros blaireau, t'es aigri parce que McCain a perdu ? dommage !
many questions come when talking about culture...
why are so many cities called like ours : Montpelier, Paris... ?
Remember history

- insllvn, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5In France, they call that a "royale with cheese."

You need to expand your mind. - MrShinra, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5In the beginning, the computer was dark and empty, devoid
of image or audio. Al Gore saw this void and proclaimed, let there
be File-Sharing! The connection spread where there was none, and it was good.
On the second day, the code and the framework were separated.
Al Gore called the code "HTML" and the framework "TCP/IP",
and saw that it was good.
On the third day, Al Gore said, “Let the Internet sprout CSS, HTML, yielding pages, and link trees bearing link in which is their pages, each according to its kind, on the Framework.” And it was so.
The Dial-Up was created to serve the pages and serve the links of those pages, and they became plentiful.
On the fourth day, Al Gore said, Let there be ISPs in the expanse of the tubes to separate the user from the server. And let them be for signs and for error codes, and for days and download speeds, and let them be ISPs in the expanse of the tubes to give Websites upon the Internet.” And it was so.
On the fifth day, Al Gore said, Let the ISPs swarm with swarms of living animated GIFs, and let videos fly above the tubes across the expanse of the Internet. Al Gore commended them, saying, “Be diligent and multiply and fill the tubes in the Internet, and let Torrents multiply on the World Wide Web.”
On the Sixth day, Al Gore said, “Let us make customers in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the tubes of the Internet and over the Peer to peer of the world wide web, and over the Hard Drives and over all the Tubes and over every creeping link that creeps on the Internet."
On the Seventh day, the Architect rested and proclaimed "Let the customer know that they should rest, and they should seed their torrent, and that their torrent should be shared for as long as they are to rest."
And Al Gore saw everything that he had commissioned, and behold, it was very good. - whyufail, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5More people are upset with how they enforce copyright than copyright in itself.
- trashsportcat, on 11/08/2008, -2/+7Can't you just blame canada like any other decent people?
- Sutley, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5It's two chances.
- TehDoctor, on 11/08/2008, -1/+6They can only catch bittorrent by setting up fake seeds or deep packet inspection. Enable encryption and get PeerGuardian/use the bluetack list and you've eliminated 90% of the risk.
- steviesteveo, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5Clear SEO spam here - this user is trying to pad a blog's search result - Digg users shouldn't let this abuse happen
- glenSM, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5Yeh I dont see the point in keeping a copyright after the person has died. I should be able to download all the dead peoples music : /
- layzice, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5So say we all.
- AmericanGunner, on 11/08/2008, -4/+9Only people would actually watch this if it became a sport, unlike baseball.
- Kyan, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5Frankenstonian!
- violentvinyl, on 11/08/2008, -0/+5If you liked D13, you'll probably also like Brotherhood of the Wolf.
- Aupajo, on 11/08/2008, -2/+7"have" not "of"
