The Pirate Bay appeals Italian block

article published on 24 August, 2008

Swedish BitTorrent tracker site, The Pirate Bay, is appealing against the decision of an Italian judge which ordered all ISPs in the country to block the popular website.

Come on guys, we all know that the pirate bay is used solely to find copyrighted material.

I mean, it's like if I have sex with your wife or girlfriend, but since I wore a condom, my penis never actually touched the inside of her vagina. So does that mean I can say "Relax man, we didn't have sex!" after I bang your wife?

Bomber, what weed are you smoking, is it reefer again.

its not the same, the internet is a whole if one segment is lost the rest must be as well.

but since you like comparing the internet to sex, the net is like a billion cloned virgins if you have sex with one you must have sex with the rest because they all act and think alike.




Make them pay pirate bay!

Like i have said be fore i don't care most of the files that the pirate bay searches to notice how i said searches not hosts contain viruses malware and spyware and several companys are using them to track down these pirate partys to arrest them so thanks for the nice search engine but no thanks to the pirate bay.

The problem is its not solely anything and thats the problem if they want to nail the gray area then block google and half the net as well, there is no in between with shortsightedness.

The argument used against The Pirate Bay can be used against all the search engines that direct to The Pirate Bay or all the search engines that link to copyrighted material. These P2P sites are no different than Google and Yahoo. They are just more specialized.
