Yes, the piracy isn't that serious as they complain about. The people who want to buy will buy it. And those who can't/won't buy will use alternative softwares instead, if not pirated ones. Did you know? Official stats: 80% of chenese use pirated softwares.
Who are they actually, they seemed to be fearless of the companies, some of which are among the largest in the world.
It sounds like they are just stirring the pot and making the situation even more worse when the emails could simply go unanswered. Not too smart IMHO, but entertaining nonetheless.
The SomethingAwful legal threats are also awesome. somethingawful.com/d/legal-threats/ (Sorry, I can't link yet )
They are a massive bittorrent tracker. The owners are Swedish where the law is hazy on such an issue. Wiki sums the site up best. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pirate_Bay
OMG the something awful legal page is the most hilarious shit I've read in a while. Something Awful vs. the Dog Haired Private Investigator LOL!!!
lol wow those a pretty funny too Oh and TPB's graph which proves that zero trackers have been removed and zero will ever be removed is something for them idiots to look at
