Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.

No edited by ddp, he's saying the US is the enemy to internet freedom. And I agree with him. (And I'm from Texas.)

Take a breath gentlemen... The article was vague at best about the context in which the quote was taken.

Facts are, the judge is a dick & already biased toward a 'deep throat' conspiracy with the MPAA/RIAA to hammer Dotcom or someone of his ilk in order to hammer out their agenda.

Other than bigwil's race to name calling, I agree with him, the US is belligerently quick to stamp out everyone's rights to INTERNET freedom. China has a problem with CIVIL rights; but that's not what this article is about.

Although we have a right to freedom of speech & a supposed freedom to share it, it is a surprisingly harsh case of painful rectal itch at how hard money grubbing assholes fight to keep us from doing just that - sharing.

The bitching & bickering will go on indefinitely simply over ownership, but the fact is - THEY don't own it! Yet they seem to be the ones benefiting the most.

The quicker we put an end to these kind of contradictions the quicker we can get back to better entertainment.

Just Like Assange; Kim dotcom has released a website that promises to expose corporate influence in controlling politics. http://kim.com/
