Feels to me like the media industry would rather get into the rape, kill and burn business themselves than let fat boy get off easy.
Anyone else thought of this guy:
When seeing the megaupload guy?

Possible, but very misleading because he hasn't been to trial and sentenced. Might be found innocent or get a light sentence. And two, with the murderer, he should have been sentenced to death if found guilty especially if found guilty with DNA evidence these days.
Kim Schmitz or whatever he named himself could very well be guilty of the crimes he is being charged with and if he is, he shouldn't be treated as some poor (yeah right$$$) hero being oppressed by the government.
But that's a post to be expected from somebody who admits he supports pirating
Wow, someone on the forums actually believes in the death penalty. That's quite the surprise.
im confused.. isnt it against the forum rules to post political discussions?
"Political discussions are prohibited" plainly in the rules... hmmm selectively enforced.. hypocrisy uber alles!

Boy, that comment just made me remember the kid in school who, at the end of the day, pipes up and says 'but teacher, you didn't give us any homework tonight'..
dont get me wrong i cant stand any of this legislation.. it's just a little ironic, ive had topics closed for this very reason, political discussion. i actually think they should abolish the rule, but, it's there.. for you to remember when you've been flagged for it..
I think it's pretty obvious that this is an exception to the rule due to the possible ramifications of bills like these passing and the effects they would have on the internet as a whole.
Political debates are not allowed on this forum because, quite frankly, if you've ever seen one on a forum, then you know they are just flamefests, they never go anywhere or convinces anyone of anything, it's just 32+ pages of Left calling Right "smegheads!", and the Right saying "no you're the smegheads!" to the Left.
That is allways what it boils down to, and it can tear communities appart for no good reason, so i don't really blame the mods here for not wanting that here.
This thread has not degenerated into that, and mostly just serves to make people aware of something that's going on, and thus, that's probably why it hasen't been targeted by the mods, it hasen't gone sour like they usually do.

I don't think this is a purely political problem. It's more moral than anything. You have both some Dems and GOP'ers for and against the program. All I can say, as a Libertarian, this is what happens when you have a crony-capitalist society, and a corrupt government.
P.S. It's been a very, very long time since I've been on the forums! It's nice to talk to you guys again!

OK new from NZ, Mr Dotcom's plea for parole has been declined and he will continue to stay in NZ prison. The courts are now trying to decide whether or not to extradite him to the US for a trail there.
