You can't blame legitimate businesses from wanting to stop the distribution of their property but they should also respect the law.

Yeah, you gotta stop those grannies and dead people from pirating your stuff.

Though I think they'd hurt RIAA and MPAA more if they DDOS'd sites that sell legal music and movie downloads.

Hah, now that would be funny. Is it possible to DDoS all of iTunes?

 

[AMDZen]

Love it when a plan comes together

Thread backfire? Most definitely.

4chan is out of control, but I really have no problem with cyberterrorism directed at the RIAA and MPAA.

Civil disobedience.

I don't get why 4chan gets a bad reputation. They are a beacon of freedom on the internet.

That's how I see it. 4chan's the asshole of the internet, but like everything else, we need an asshole to function properly. I'm glad they're here.

Hmm never been to /b/ have you?

Is it really appropriate to say "4chan did _____" when it is only a small subset of its users (along with non-4chan people) doing these kind of attacks?

The Muslims crashed two planes into the WTC so yeah.

Let a small child do whatever he wants, he'll end up playing with his poop.

I'm starting to think this myself... especially as I read more about this specific case. From what I read it was TPB that sparked this one.

 

[SSSnail]

We are legion.

 

[DominionSeraph]

I'd join in but my ratio fell below 5.0, so my bandwidth is spoken for.

 

[JackBurton]

Keep up the good work 4chan.

hey all,

How do we get people to pay money for content like a movie?

 

[Double Trouble]

404 - sympathy not found. As far as I'm concerned they can ddos anything associated with the the RIAA and MPAA permanently and I won't have any problem with it.....

Sell it at a good price, in a format people want, without DRM. There will always be piracy, so there's no point in worrying about that. Take care of your customers, and they'll take care of you.

 

[Hail The Brain Slug]

This song seems appropriate.

AND - listen closely cause this is the important part - make the content WORTH PAYING FOR. I won't even pirate a shitty movie, what makes you think I'd pay for it?


edit: go #team4chan! Too bad they can't figure out how to ddos MPAA/RIAA executives' lives.
