RIAA warns against bitcoin, The Pirate Bay in latest ‘notorious websites’ list

http://rt.com/usa/riaa-bitcoin-pirate-bay-notorious-993/

Since there are many people that despise the RIAA this might be an endorsement for Bitcoin?  Perhaps they should be afraid?  

 RIAA stands for?

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), a lobby group working for the benefit of the major record labels and other heavyweights in the music industry

fuck the RIAA

long live digital reproduction; doesn't cost anything. copyright is just human control on freedom, prosperity, and human progression

Is donating to the Pirate Bay illegal? Afaik it's not.

While I wouldn't go so far to damn all copyright laws, I think the current ones are utterly stupid. (and most of that thanks to those lobbying groups)

Ahahahah. So now downloading the blockchain is pirate i suppose.  :D

Rich Imbecile Association of America

Fact: there's a much easier way to distribute music

Fact: the RIAA wants to stop this new technology making it easy to distribute music; because without this technology they make more money (arguable)

One of the reasons why RIAA dont like bitcoins is that they are very good at going at the money source of pirate sites. Payment solutions, ads etc.
With bitcoin they CANNOT do this.

Kinda funny how Hollywood was set up specifically to avoid patents.

So now we finally reached the "they fight you" part... :D

Maybe we should rethink how we profit from our work without relying on copyright laws; we obviously don't agree with them so it comes as no surprise that we don't follow them.  No matter how severe the punishments, a law we don't agree on is just that.


I'm in it to win it ;D

Oh, thank you RIAA for reminding me to make another bitcoin donation to TPB  ;D
