I'm honestly wondering if they will ever find the private tracker im a member of less then 30k Members worldwide and its hiding behind Several fake webpages and there are no Outside links google will get you no where.

Only way is a direct bookmark. GL ... But ya never used it anyhow the trackers i use have massive download speeds.

I just watch old movies mainly the ones you cant even find anymore.

First: You've got a picture in there that's 800x286 pixels. The maximum signature size is 700x250.
Second: Your other picture in the rotation fills the full 700x250 boundaries by itself.
With an image that big, you can't fit any text below it. Please fix this.

Another funny (sad) aspect of this story is...US Authorities arrest 3 Germans in New Zealand...It's strange how countries cooperate when it is in cooperate (pun not intended) interests.

Damn... here I was thinking I was safe on our little island.

Goddamned US, we don't want your nukes, and we sure as hell don't want your laws!

I'll be damned if I sit back and watch my country get Yankeethized.

Where were those Germans situated?

I am not sure, but is North Shore District something you can relate to? Found here.

Another fun (sad) fact: Multiple musicians and artists (P. Diddy, Snoop Dog among others) made a song FOR Megaupload, defending it. It got taken down by Universal Music because it allegedly infringes some copyright :crazy:Any sane person must notice now, that all those record labels and media lobby organizations don't give a damn about the genuine artists.

You should know that I don't. But the 'why care, I don't use Megaupload' post made me think of Niemöller's lines. Neither I used that site, but the events made me feel unease. Maybe I should have paraphrased the quote...

Is this how you define freedom?

Virginia has had strong anti-piracy laws since the 1980's. Many companies have found out the hard way that if they are skirting the law in the slightest way, it's not a good idea to have a server or an office in Virginia.

Freedom of speech is quite a big part of being free I guess.
