this is nothing more than the media attempting to use fear as a means of stopping illegal fileshares...

"Of course, the best way to avoid a potentially embarrassing disclosure of your porn tastes is to avoid downloading pirated porn in the first place. But for those people who already have, there appears to be little in the way of guaranteeing that they won't end up like the thousands of people whose porn-viewing habits were exposed in Great Britain."
 
It would be interesting to make a poll here to know how much are for/against that. Personally, even if I'm against illegal sharing, revealing identities like that is just completely wrong.

So, basically what it comes down to is "DON'T STEAL COPYRIGHTED MEDIA".
If you don't steal the stuff, then your name should not be amongst the details stolen from ACS.
There is plenty of free porn available legally. I know that there are people who rip off entire websites and then share or even sell the content as if it were their own, selling memberships to copied sites. These people should be named and shamed.

The problem with 4chan is that the evidence being stored by ACS has now been compromised, which may well mean the information cannot be used to prosecute. The question is - what were the 4chan users trying to do?

This is just another case of bad things happening when you break the law. :dunno:
 
I am totally against the theft of pornographic material. However, should not punish the person who downloaded the file from some free site without knowing if the material is illegal or not. It should punish those who illegally distribute this material (free or not free).
Sometimes it's not easy to know if the free material is legal or illegal, because there are free porn sites for advertising.

What is this like Porn Napster or something?
 
You cannot mess with 4chan, period. There are hackers and other types on there that have the ability to ruin your lives. There is a group (I will not name them, we know who they are), that see themselves as revolutionaries or maybe anarchists, and sometimes they do some good (ie. spamming the inventor of spam, finding that girl who threw the puppies in the river, etc.). But piss them off and they will exploit the weakness of the information age. Bottom line, leave the internet alone.

And to that "group" that will remain...nameless ;) I just want to say "keep up the good work".
 
Who steals porn material don't like pornography or is an idiot. if you steal porn the porn industry will be poorer. So the quality the porn will be poorer.

Bring out the lawyers. Bring out the lawyers. This shit will go on past my death. Protect your shit on the Internet if you don't want it stolen. I just hope Freeones protects.
 
could you imagine walking into your office and there's a printout on your desk from your boss with the movies that you downloaded?? Talk about an awkward moment!!
 
Prosecuting due to illegal downloads is dumb. Where would you file the case? No court has jurisdiction over the internet since jurisdiction is bound by territoriality. Does the internet have territorial bounds? Not unless a treaty is signed by all nations, prosecuting illegal downloads would be a futile exercise.

Making the hackers angry and pissed off at you is also bad for business. These people are relentless. That law firm will definitely get sued for failure to keep their records confidential and protected.
 
All i can say is don't take copyrighted material and you have nothing to worry about. Find the stuff to download legally and go about your business
 
Why do people still mess with file sharing websites? Can't they think of better ways to infest their computers with viruses, trojans, and hijacking?
 
Internet Privacy is a big concern. In the past people had a similar challenge with the postal mail system. And mail was then and still is protected with privacy laws to protect freedom. Something like that is definetely required for the Internet, email and so on.

Intentionally distributing copyrighted material however is wrong. But what if you just sent a picture to "kind or advertise" to a friend something, or enourage him to pruchase something. Is that wrong too?

There is a fine line for everything. The privacy of communication on the internet is a great chalange and a solutions is necessary to protect the freedom.

One way is to limit of what can be stored about someone and for how long. At the end it's a difficult subject.
 
:laugh: ACS Law! The first of many! You are fucked Sirs!
