GENERAL THOUGHTS?.

As for me. lol. well there's still hundreds of sites like megaupload. The FBI says this has nothing to do with SOPA, but the timing of something like this is just too convenient don't you guys think? (a Day after the Blackout protest pretyt much).

EDIT: And funny enough, following the shutdown of Megaupload, the following sites have been hacked:

-Department of Justice
-Warner Music Group
-Universal Music
-White House Site

Yeah Ive been following this too, its horse shit.

I'm sure they have some legitimate grounds to arrest some of these people as the founder has a laundry list of criminal activities but taking down megaupload for piracy? That is some SOPA shit right there. The timing of this is HELLA suspicious too.

I thought safe harbor laws prevented this kind of thing.

I for one welcome our new Orwellian overlords.

All glory to the hypnotoad!

On a conspiracy level this suggests that all common procedure of law creation is a fixed game, that's if you're into that sort of thing though. It's a bit much to take in on that level, or at least rationalize it.

And then I realized that the chord progression from Chrono Cross's Another World is the same progression as the chorus from Peace of Mind by Boston, and life was never quite the same.

Next Tivo and the maker of the VCR will arrested because they invented the "record" function on their products.

WTF is with Americans thinking they control everything.

Honestly, I believe it's the Churches fault. Rome and the Vatican were the same way about everything. Now look what happens, They move over to America, were the "power" is at.

Lol, I just knew there be a thread like this here.. :D Only bad for me was that I was downloading a 54 episode show and they shut down mega when I was at 42. But I found a torrent now so I'm cool... :P Fighting piracy is like fighting the need to eat chocolate, you make a move but 15min later you're screwed anyway... :)
