    Why do you even go after the forums when you can whine all day about the file hosts who are actually hosting all the files and on top of that are paying to people for it? Doing illegal work and on top of that, encouraging it with providing money. Two charges already there

    Anyone saying "this is illegal" about internet activity doesn't understand how the law works. No nation can dictate the law in another nation. If a country says that it's not illegal no matter what content you host, it's not illegal for a server in that country to have those files on it for download. And it's not illegal in that country for someone in another country to download those files.

    And no, no "US company" controls the internet. Any country is free to pass whatever law it passes regarding how the internet is used in that country. If you connect to a site hosted in that country, your government may be able to do something - to you - but unless the US wants to illegally invade another country, it can't tell any other sovereign nation what to do within its own borders. While some US company controls the lease of certain top level domains, that has nothing to do with the US controlling the content of a server that's not located in the US - unless the US wants to violate international law.

    The only blanket "it's illegal" is if there's a treaty in place, and there's no "anti-warez" treaty.

    Too narrow thinking. There are high profilers (insiders) involved. Multiple servers running simultaneously. Social engineering and information trading with deep hacking. They cannot be touched. Your tummy is not up for it. Just forget about it.... :)

    Warez are not legal not even in China / Thailand but they government do not clamp down on it. But since they not host the files they do not break the law. Same as Google do not break the law, same as TPB did not break the law. (even if the Swedish court thought so). The user who is sharing the files is breaking the law, that is why host like Filesonic kick them out when they see a warez file.

    There are plenty of places where Warez IS legal, as there are no copyright laws whatsoever.

    Warez sites exist simply because the owners know where they can host them legally, and not run into any issues.

    What's funny about China is they censor everything, yet they don't do anything about warez.

    what i find interesting is how the affiliates are linking up here. It gets quite interesting when you start looking into deep into affiliate connections

    they're onsite advertisers consist of register.com for a banner at the bottom, and the adperium network serving ads at the top. here is a quote from adperium terms:


    this link from crunchbase says they are licensed under rightmedia API

    http://www.crunchbase.com/company/adperium

    and who is rightmedia really? ;) yahoo

    http://rightmedia.com/api


    so now you tell me there is not funny business going on?

    oh and also for all you conspiracy theorists - look at adperiums image logo

    United Nations all the way

    keep digging, keep asking questions - you probably will not like what you find :)

    We can only speculate on such things. I'm assuming that the people who charge for copyright are going after the file hosting services and not sites like Warez-BB because they figure that even if they take down a Warez-BB-like site, another one would just pop up. If they take down the file hosting services, everything goes away. They get it from the root.

    those are so well known terms like legal, illegal... but few people ask themselves how come somebody on other part of the world can do something they cant...are we not all human? we have all divided ourselves with shitty borders shitty goverments shitty rules, shitty religions, laws, conequences, prisons. you all forget that laws are made up. and by people. And in case of ACTA made up covertly by really bad and greedy people. they acctually succeeded with large amounts of money. so real question should be not about warez-bb but about how we all try to blindly obey the law and those who invent laws are just submiting people more and more with every written word. we are nothing but food for the system.

    It's not "blindly". Those who understand how civilization works understand that it doesn't work if no one obeys the rules.

    If you want to get the benefits of a particular civilization, you obey the rules of that civilization. We do it, animals do it. Most lions know that it's against the rules to attack full-grown elephants. Those that don't become stains on the ground very quickly.

    Downloading a ripped movie isn't going to kill you, but it can still hurt you. (Fines, prison time, etc.)

    I'm not coming down on the side of the MPAA - if the industry can't learn to adapt to changes, it goes the way of the buggy-whip industry. Indie filmmakers can make movies for pennies and release them on the internet. And Pixar is competing with that. Indies also don't pay stars 10 million bucks for a month of work, and they don't spend millions advertising the movie with a toy kids get in an unhealthy meal, or more millions trying to bribe legislators into passing laws that make it illegal to download anything larger than 2MB.

    What will happen in 5 years? 10? 50? Who knows? But for now sites like Megaupload will be shut down, the people running them will lose their shirts (and possibly a few years of freedom), and some people who download not-free programs, music and movies will be prosecuted.

    This civilization you are talking about... it is not working. How can you say it is civilization when some people barely manage to survive (in 21st century!!) and some don't just because they don't have money. and in the same time trillions of their tax paying dollars are spent to control them and for military to kill people around the world with big fu_king tanks ships helicopters guns etc... halloo!! secret agencies working towards "national security" which is just a funny phrase for them while people are hungry and poor. And media companies obviously have money, but it is not enough for them and never will be. It is their hidden agenda which is not hidden any more....

    Would you rather live in the woods, having only what you can make with your bare hands? That's civilization not working. You have a roof over your head, you're not too cold in the winter and you can communicate with just about anyone in the world. If you want to give that all up, you're free to do so, but I'm not going to bet any money that I don't need that you'll do it.

    i couldn't agree more with you tomazy, i was actually writing out a response to it but figured it wouldn't matter - the majority of people miss the point regardless.
