An article from PC World...the author of course completely misses the biggest point. Just because the TPB stops allowing illegal content doesn't mean other torrent sites will do the same.
The piratebay just happened to have the best name and company image...so much for those...
Isn't Pirate Bay just a pointer site? Right? I though PB didn't host any actual content. It just allows people to tell other people where a file may be.
Am I wrong on this?
David in Qatar loves Piracy
TPB will probably be as successful after a post-legit buyout as Napster after they went legit.
That is to say: "not at all".
David,
Yes. Piratebay is simple a torrent search engine. The gov't took all their servors one time and had to give them back because there was absolutely no illegal content on them.
The charge is ridiculous and just goes to show how much power super corporations have over gov't.
Chromantix,
My thoughts exactly. But again its hard to fault the guys threatened with jail time and a massive fine for taking $8 million dollars to let someone else deal with the problem.
"The code is really more sort of a guideline..."
I guess I haven't been paying attention...this blog was the first I had heard about it. Of course, I've been pretty busy lately...
Anyway, rec for you. I'll miss the Pirate Bay.
galtline,
Thanks for the rec. I believe it was a pretty recent decision. My friend found it on Digg and I was like holy sh8t! That can't be true? Sadly, it's true.
Oh well, I'm off the Mississippi for the weekend. If I blog it wont be an audio blog as I will be doing it from my father's laptop. We shall see what I can manage.
So...crazy story...someone actually subscribed to my youtube channel after I created this video. I only have two videos so far, this one and this one.
Ahoy... Why are ya talking about the bay with these landlubbers? Besides, the Bay lives on... the buyer didn't come up with the money. Arrrgggghhhh!!!!!
