I tried to mark pro-copyright brainwashed pricks here.
I am not pro-copyright, but I'm certainly pro-respect-the-authors-license for their works.
The author/artist of digital work is certainly free to choose wherever license they feel needs to be attached to their work.
I feel we should respect a license be it proprietary or open source.

 Angry

WTF..    You guys seriously blame a service provider for exclusively supporting copyright material ?   How ignorant can you be ?

Here's a thought, did LAVABIT exclusively supported crime or terrorism ?


These are merely service providers that are also providing you the privacy you want/need. Without those kind of services you won't be able to have a private conversation anywhere, ever.

Where is the right for privacy ?  I guess you have none, in this world.  Roll Eyes

Looks like this has turned into a copyright discussion. Just my opinion, no matter what, let's give credit when it's due okay and that means paying to the rightful owner for the work done. If someone did the same to you someday and stole your work without paying, I'm sure you will feel bad as well.

Nerds love 'free' movies, but it is killing the people who produce movies just like the music industry.

People have been saying that file sharing is killing the music industry for a decade now -- obviously a huge exaggeration. Who watched the Grammy's the other night?


Music industry was devastated by file sharing thieves.  Just because they are giving out Grammys doesn't mean the music is any good.  Obviously you were around when the Kinks, Stones were awesome.  

Kim Dot Com is  world class scum.  No wonder he lives in exile and is getting his access to payment networks shut down.  

Bitcoin needs advocates who have more to offer than clever ways to steal.

I like the way you respond to a joke!

If I say 'Knock knock' , you say 'Kim dot com is a fat pig stealing money from the people that sacrifice their souls in to creating artistic works of arts for the people only to watch them burn and suffer!'

Come to my party!

I doubt that. But of course Kim Schmitz would like to be the reason for it. He is extremely self-centered and thinks he is the greatest.
Check out his past life and you will know what I mean.

It is good thing for Bitcoin. If there are anything against the law let police solve it but that has nothing to do with Bitcoin. Bitcoin if free to use for everyone.

Just wondering why he needs to convert all his stash when what he needs is basically to be able to receive payment in bitcoin. The large buy order could come from someone else who might have interpret that as a positive news event and thus put on a large buy.

The rise of the last two Bitcoin's bubbles has exclusively speculative reasons underneath, so Kim would fit perfectly into this scenario, where we are looking to fuel the third one.

Kim DotCom is a disgusting bloated fat pig.  He peddles in illegal stolen wares.  He profits from the illicit use of other people's creations.  Most around here don't like copyright, but it remains legitimate law.  Nerds love 'free' movies, but it is killing the people who produce movies just like the music industry.

I think your comment about "it remains legitimate law" indicates way too much respect for the legal system. There are many examples of clearly immoral laws, (e.g. Fugitive Slave Law) and I'm sure you could come up with your own list of them. Also there are lots of example where copyright laws have been used to stifle creativity rather than encourage it. Kim Dotcom provides one more use-case for bitcoin. If you don't want to use his service, don't.

Kim Dotcom is a much larger asset to the human race than the puppets who try to strong-arm him with their Wall Street-dictated laws/agendas. They would trade places with him if they had the genetics/confidence for it.

Kim just needs to accept btc asap. More action less talk.

Exacrtly. They said that about cassette copying: 'Home taping is killing music'. File sharing is here to stay and the industry just needs to learn to adapt like any other. Advancements in technology makes jobs obsolete so people and industries need to evolve along with it. That being said the music industry is doing fine; they just don't make as much money as they used to so the bosses can only afford 1 private jet as opposed to owning a fleet of them and their bands and artists can now only afford one mansion instead of 5  Grin.

Oh noes, another short-sighted brainwashed prick.

Shitty movies are killing the movie industry, not filesharing, it's something that the entertainment business doesn't like to admit so they find a scapegoat.

I don't think it's down to shitty movies as there's a lot of great films coming out, but the prices are ridiculous. They should be getting cheaper not more expensive. The prices seem to have doubles over the past 7 years or so and to go see a film in imax or 3D is ridiculous. If the cinema industry wants to survive they need to lower the prices though I think streaming high quality films though better TVs will be the future.

So ,
Seems like Paypal and MasterCard has stopped doing business with MEGA (File uploading & sharing provider)

Kim Dotcom tweeted : "I like to thank @Paypal for backing #Mega for such a long time. The pressure from Hollywood and the US Government was simply too much."
So he decided to switch from those payment methods to Bitcoin and give a boost .


I personally think that it's a great oppurtunity for Bitcoin , what do you guys think ? Grin

Do we really need to have bitcoin involved in more criminal uses?  Do we really want to associate bitcoin as this go to tool for assholes who want to steal?  

Bitcoin will be great as soon as we get rid of the anarchy assholes think its primary use is to traverse the law.


Kim Schmitz is merely a dirty filthbag.  I don't accept him as an ambassador for Bitcoin.



He's certainly an opportunist but he is very clever marketing guy and knows how to make millions. If he brings millions to Bitcoin then so be it.
