Topic: Free Our Internet

I just fear what will happen if the US Government decides it's "had enough of this shit" and takes off the kid gloves.

If this happens then then the United States of America will officially no longer exist. Instead it will be the Imperial Americano (American Empire) as stated in many of those cyber punk mangas and animes (Ghost in the Shell to name one). But if America becomes an empire then it's only a matter of time until they, like Rome before her, will fall. And fall hard.

I just love how in their videos Anonymous claims to be all about freedom of speech and all that but when someone starts voicing an opinion in disagreement with their views they attack them for it, At this point anyone genuienly suffering as a result of internet piracy is probably to afraid to give their side of the story.

Well, remember that Anonymous is not in any way centralized. People can be dicks, and this guy seems to have gotten on the wrong side of some of the members of Anonymous who are less noble.

He requested a hack, so he got hacked.

I honestly don't give two shits about idiots who pretty much provoke others. And if the news wishes to equate a cause with a name, they can go screw themselves, ... well they can go screw themselves even if they didn't since they tend to spread a lot of misinformation.

If you haven't had a chance check out the court papers on the Megaupload Conspiracy. I posted the link on page 1 of the thread, they were so thorough with the competing file sharing sites they basically opened a pandora's box and fukked it up for everyone. Also think about this, the FBI has the IP address of everyone that has ever downloaded content through megaupload. Realistically they wouldn't? be digging through all them unless looking for stuff such as kiddy porn and unsavory things like that, but it still gives you something to think about the next time you are trying to download anything from the internet...
