Founder of megauopload sentenced to 50 YEARS
meanwhile, Casey Anthony walks free

This seems pretty extreme to me. He made a website that supported illegal activity, yes. He wasn't advertising it as a place to come share copyrighted files.
can't say I've ever heard of megauopload
wait, how the HELL have they already gone through the full trial and got to sentencing? and now that it's done, i want to see what evidence they had for their more outlandish claims.
this whole thing REEKS.
All messed up and slightly twisted.
Am I sick or am I gifted?
justice?
If You own an superb speed internet connection then it is also achievable toAcess Television on your Pc without any bother and Television quality is also glorious
His link is not to anything about a trial.
Yeah I posted in haste. He hasn't been sentenced. He hasn't even been extradited to the US yet. But he DID lose his top spot in MW3. Which is worse??
Oh you!
There's a good chance you've handled my ass-pennies. That gives me the edge.
yeah this is what happens when you dont check your sources
I bet you anything he camps like a little faggot.

Anyone see the photos of his estate? Dude was living large. Worth somewhere around 170 million... Last year alone he made over 40 mil...

his car license plates are hilarious
look em up
No way will he get 50 years. That's nuts.
"And now some photographic proof of the fact that the seized cars carried license plates that said things like ‘MAFIA’, ‘HACKER’, ‘STONED’, ‘V’ (for Vendetta?), ‘KIM COM’, ‘CEO’ and ‘POLICE’."

of course there was shitloads of copyrighted material hosted there, but that's not what i'm talking about. racketeering? really? and all the "oh, they really WANTED copyrighted material on the site, and secretly encouraged it" type of rhetoric. it's definitely possible, but the FBI either has evidence of this, or they are talking out of their asses on some kind of "that's how we might run a filesharing scheme" thought line. until i know what evidence they have, i got the impression of the latter.

They arrest this guy, but they do not arrest the owner of a hardware store when someone uses a crowbar to break into places and steal things.

go on.
idk if this is true, from one of the comments though,
"He's broken 10+ New Zealand laws including Money Laundering, New Zeland copyright, and suspected drug involvement. We would have taken this guy, the US just joined in. He had illegal weapons in the house, and hid away in a locked room with a sawn off shotgun as NZ police stormed the house."
i bet he has an outlandish gun rack.
damn infractions
correct me if im wrong, but i thought the founder was still awaiting extradition to the us for trail/sentencing.
anyways, if this is the final verdict, yet another illustration demonstrating that corporate america may have was too much sway over the legal system. really 50years? vs what does assault, rape, burglary, etc go for now days? 10-15years max? various white collar crime that can ruin the lives of hundreds - 1 to 5 years + a small portion of the money gained?
im all for people getting their dues and fair shares since piracy really is just stealing in a different form whether we like acknowledging it or not, but 50 years over something like this? that and the founder can't actually control what people upload or dont upload, its not his fault if people upload copyrighted content and share it with others. he is simply hosting online storage. ie i could just as easily loan someone a book or movie in person and while it may not spread out as much, its not different than sharing IF the person sharing doesn't do it for profit. also libraries - they spend a butt ton of money on books and resources and then allow the community to benefit.
The "spreading it out as much" is the whole point. Yeah, you can purchase a copy of something and loan it to a friend. That one, singular copy. Because when you loan it out to your friend, you don't have it. And if you don't want to be without it, then you tell your friend "frack you, buy your own." That's how its supposed to work. Like at the library - if you want to borrow a book (which they purchased) and its already been borrowed, they don't go into the back and reproduce another copy for you. You have to wait until that one copy is returned back to the library. Or go out and purchase your own copy. And there is a profit to copied material. The person receiving the copy has received something of value without paying for it. I'd say that's profiting. The person who created or assisted in creating that copy was simply aiding and abetting a theft.
This isn't some abstract theory.
There's a good chance you've handled my ass-pennies. That gives me the edge.
