The Pirate Bay Talks SOPA PIPA

Posted on2012/01/19AuthorTruXter

The pirate bay Released a message about the whole idea of Sopa and Pipa. This is exactly what I have mentioned before. but with better form than what I tend to write.
In sum, sopa is just to just to ensure the entertainment industry’s monopoly on entertainment media, by creating laws that prevent people from using a method of media distribution, than what they already hold the capitol over. We are not ran by a company, a company is funded by us, we like to have the option to say ” no the entertainment you offer us is not good, we are not paying for it” and if they need to up their game, they should. Because as a person who like a good movie, I will on any day pay to sit in a theater with a massive screen and an audio system I could never own or afford.
I don’t steal. and I don’t like paying for low quality agenda based, crap media.
From Reddit

INTERNETS, 18th of January 2012. PRESS RELEASE, FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.

Over a century ago Thomas Edison got the patent for a device which would “do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear”. He called it the Kinetoscope. He was not only amongst the first to record video, he was also the first person to own the copyright to a motion picture.

Because of Edisons patents for the motion pictures it was close to financially impossible to create motion pictures in the North american east coast. The movie studios therefor relocated to California, and founded what we today call Hollywood. The reason was mostly because there was no patent. There was also no copyright to speak of, so the studios could copy old stories and make movies out of them – like Fantasia, one of Disneys biggest hits ever.

So, the whole basis of this industry, that today is screaming about losing control over immaterial rights, is that they circumvented immaterial rights. They copied (or put in their terminology: “stole”) other peoples creative works, without paying for it. They did it in order to make a huge profit. Today, they’re all successful and most of the studios are on the Fortune 500 list of the richest companies in the world. Congratulations – it’s all based on being able to re-use other peoples creative works. And today they hold the rights to what other people create. If you want to get something released, you have to abide to their rules. The ones they created after circumventing other peoples rules.

The reason they are always complainting about “pirates” today is simple. We’ve done what they did. We circumvented the rules they created and created our own. We crushed their monopoly by giving people something more efficient. We allow people to have direct communication between eachother, circumventing the profitable middle man, that in some cases take over 107% of the profits (yes, you pay to work for them). It’s all based on the fact that we’re competition. We’ve proven that their existance in their current form is no longer needed. We’re just better than they are.

And the funny part is that our rules are very similar to the founding ideas of the USA. We fight for freedom of speech. We see all people as equal. We believe that the public, not the elite, should rule the nation. We believe that laws should be created to serve the public, not the rich corporations.

The Pirate Bay is truly an international community. The team is spread all over the globe – but we’ve stayed out of the USA. We have Swedish roots and a swedish friend said this: The word SOPA means “trash” in Swedish. The word PIPA means “a pipe” in Swedish. This is of course not a coincidence. They want to make the internet inte a one way pipe, with them at the top, shoving trash through the pipe down to the rest of us obedient consumers. The public opinion on this matter is clear. Ask anyone on the street and you’ll learn that noone wants to be fed with trash. Why the US government want the american people to be fed with trash is beyond our imagination but we hope that you will stop them, before we all drown.

SOPA can’t do anything to stop TPB. Worst case we’ll change top level domain from our current .org to one of the hundreds of other names that we already also use. In countries where TPB is blocked, China and Saudi Arabia springs to mind, they block hundreds of our domain names. And did it work? Not really. To fix the “problem of piracy” one should go to the source of the problem. The entertainment industry say they’re creating “culture” but what they really do is stuff like selling overpriced plushy dolls and making 11 year old girls become anorexic. Either from working in the factories that creates the dolls for basically no salary or by watching movies and tv shows that make them think that they’re fat.

In the great Sid Meiers computer game Civilization you can build Wonders of the world. One of the most powerful ones is Hollywood. With that you control all culture and media in the world. Rupert Murdoch was happy with MySpace and had no problems with their own piracy until it failed. Now he’s complainting that Google is the biggest source of piracy in the world – because he’s jealous. He wants to retain his mind control over people and clearly you’d get a more honest view of things on Wikipedia and Google than on Fox News.

Some facts (years, dates) are probably wrong in this press release. The reason is that we can’t access this information when Wikipedia is blacked out. Because of pressure from our failing competitors. We’re sorry for that.

THE PIRATE BAY, (K)2012

Does the Entertainment Industry control us? or are they controlled by profits from us?

The Office Network

Posted on2012/01/09AuthorTruXter

Well. The network here is fully, 100% in all ways….. Weird.
Our local I.T. guy has the company all stuffed into one blade with one single hard drive (on a blade that has optional 4 front load 3.5 hd). It’s not his fault. The company doesn’t buy new crap, and leaves him making it all work. Just sometimes, his issues could be avoided, if he would listen from time to time.

But some people have their own way to learn and do things, so they get into them and stick with them. God forbid they step out of their element.

So. Everyday I have to go reboot some wet fecal matter we call a peachtree server (it’s an old Pentium III single core green machine,pata only), and hope it makes it through the day without someone needing my assistance.

The user accounts on the blade, Could be a whole lot easier to set up, if the weirdo would stop deleting the icons off the desktop and start menu “recent” area. but again, he figured out how to work the server in this weird half fast way (yeah I know how to say it but this is a vulgarity free site), so if I do anything on it, yeah… it screwed up the space time continuum.

Sad thing is, I am the relief I.T. guy when he is out of the office. I fix anything, and he has no idea how I did it, space time continuum issue again. Shoe lace untied? space time continuum issue again because I worked something. power goes out in another state? Space time continuum issue again.

Sure would be nice if the high ups here would understand what I want to complain about. but again… It’s a job.

Facebook Donations Hoaxes

Posted on2012/01/03AuthorTruXter

Update 8/20/2014
Since these are making their rounds again, seemingly with the same people who shared them last year and the year before.
The people sharing the images saying that Facebook will donate if you hit like or share on a picture of someone suffering
They do it to get likes counts up and followers. so they can sell the accounts to spammers or use them for publicity and spam.
They are the scum of the earth and everything that is wrong.

They leave no link to the donation site so that you can donate in Facebook’s place. They tell nothing of the child’s well being at the current time or what country even this person may be in.
These are garbage and should be labeled as spam.
End Update

Facebook Donations Hoaxes are really getting out of hand.
The latest “share and like to save a life” picture I have seen:

A 14 years old boy got beaten half dead by his stepfather. His only fault was this that he tried to protect his little sister from being raped. Now he’s struggling for his life, but doctors say he won’t make it without a surgery. His mother doesn’t have money to pay it. Facebook donates 45cents for every sharing or reposing.
How well do these share donations work on Facebook? Do they even work at all? Nope.
Please help.
like, share and spread the message!
Share if you care

And then there’s the burned baby we have been seeing for about 2 years now.

frowny

There are a few variations to the story but this is the only one I can find right now since I just saw it today.

This one says

For each share and like, her parents will get 3 cents. Please help them and share or like this post. Help Alexandria have a bright future.

It used to just say “When this picture gets 1000 likes”. That low of a number, tells you it was a child who had no idea how many people actually use the internet.
I’m paraphrasing, but it used to say something along the lines of “an anonymous donor will pay all medical bills in full when this receives 1000 likes” at that time it was at about 200,000 likes.
I assume they realized that was a low number and had to really crank it up to see how many people they could get to like and share the picture.
It is quite sick, because if anything came along using an even remotely similar method, no one will take it serious, or even, be so sick enough as being burned out and sick of sharing and liking, they won’t bother to help.

but the fact still stands. Anyone who says “Yeah, sorry kid, I am not going to pay your bill because you have no friends” would deserve to be outed by their town/city/village or what ever. because that is cruel and gross.
So don’t share these, and don’t like them. You will not be putting a life in danger. It’s just Facebook.

The person who is starting these is a sick individual and needs a real good kicking.

Surprised this isn’t used on twitter. Would spread fast. guess there’s no way to keep track of it on twitter.

Low Cost Unlimited Website Host

Posted on2012/01/022012/05/28AuthorTruXter

The webhost I use has been offering 2 years of website hosting for under $100. Through windows I call [[Unlimited Website Host]]. When you click that link, scroll to the bottom of the page. Prices are at the bottom.

When most webhosts charge you $140 (or close to give or take) a year, you must know that you are saving quite a penny by at least giving this place a try. They are fast. The email is imap or pop, your choice.
They are not saying hos much longer this deal will last but they did recently announce another deal. Typically that would mean all past deals would phase out soon. Though the new deal sounds great, I am not sure if my code will allow half off of the new deal. So you could land at paying slightly more than what I can get you.

I have been with this company for , coming up on 5 years now. I am very pleased with their service and the quality of their operations. Customer service is easy to speak with and very quick at getting problems solved.

You will get unlimited bandwidth, unlimited storage, unlimited emails,unlimited ftp users. Anything I can think of, is unlimited.

I hope you give their [[Low cost Website Host]] a try and respond below about your experience with the company. Two years for less than $100, It’s worth a shot.

Yes I do get paid when you click the Powweb links on my website. And yes I do use Powweb’s service and I recommend it, to family, to friends, to anyone who wants to know what a good webhost is. I even got the company I work for on Powweb. I even have a few co-workwers on Powweb.

My clean pc

Posted on2011/12/252011/12/25AuthorTruXter

You will not see me going to that website.
I know better.
Anyone notice that the “Stop Sign” commercials have stopped?
And then replaced with that veri what ever?
My personal computer will not have my clean pc installed on it.
No magic elixir. You can’t rub oil on your head and make your friends any smarter. and yes, you can install a program and have it check for specific command lines or executables to be on your computer, but will not check to see if the command line is correct, or if the executable runs the proper process.
Your safest bet is taking your computer to a proper technician, to get a proper diagnosis of your computer and a correct solution to ensure that your computer will be repaired correctly if needed, at it wont cost you every month.

FireFox App to boycott SOPA sponsors

Posted on2011/12/22AuthorTruXter

Found this little gem while surfing REDDIT, it’s a firefox addon that lets you know when you hit a website that is owned by a company that sponsors or backs SOPA . Once you get the notice that you have hit the website of someone who is against the freedom of speech, you can then decide whether to stay there and purchase an item, read an article or move on to their competitor.

1) Install addon [1] https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/boycott-plus/

2) Visit [2] https://boycottplus.org/campaign/sopa-and-protect-ip click “Subscribe”

I actually would like help hashing out a more proper campaign. I started on the list provided [3] http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/nl9e0/here_are_27_prosopa_major_tech_companies_who_has/

If you’re interested in helping out, send me a message here on reddit or through the mozilla addon support link. thanks!

Here is a list of companies that back the SOPA scam. I mean sopa law.

Again, I am against SOPA, simply for the reason that I want to be able to write a legit rant review about bad companies, and not have to worry about them suing me for informing you of bogus products. And I want to be certain that I will not get sued for saying a company name, while actually telling you the company is a good company.

SOPA Could Sopa Threaten Legitimate Reviews?

Posted on2011/12/21AuthorTruXter

While looking at the list of Sopa Supporters, I can’t help but wonder what their motive is for supporting a law that is pitched to stop online piracy. There are shoe companies supporting SOPA. Shoe companies and wire makers.
One wire company is known for selling tv audio cables for $200+ While the quality of the audio from the cables doesn’t get any better than what is produced by the hardware they are connected to. This leads to the whole post here. This company has tons of negative reviews for misleading people into buying a $200 cable that is no better than a $15 cable. If sopa is passed, then saying that company’s name would be an infringement on their intellectual property.

Means I can not tell you the name of the company and warn you who’s company to watch out for.

Is this what the planet has become? Slaves to a corporate world that tells us what we like and assures us it is the best available and does not let us say different?

I will personally boycott every company on that list I linked to. I am not suggesting that you do anything.

Just telling you what I am going to do.. Even if SOPA fails. We think it probably will not.

Long List of companies that support SOPA

Posted on2011/12/21AuthorTruXter3 Comments

Ed Censored

Please use the share buttons below to inform more people about SOPA. And the companies that are backing it. Many of the companies in that list have nothing to do with internet. A shoe company? a wire company? You ever pirate a shoe before?????

A list of Sopa supporters was posted to Reddit this morning

It’s crazy the companies you see who support SOPA

I personal oppose Sopa because I want the legal right to write a legitimate review of companies good or bad without threat of being sued for using their name to inform everyone of their business.

SOPA
(For Info on Protect IP, visit http://www.opencongress.org/bill/112-s968/money for now. I will try to incorporate this.)

Also, it has been suggested that you should support organizations and companies that express concern with these bills. If you do patronize these organizations, you should let them know that you appreciate that they are opposed to SOPA and Protect IP. Otherwise, they’ll just think it’s a good season for business.
http://www.cdt.org/report/list-organizations-and-individuals-opposing-sopa

Organizations and companies that support SOPA sent this letter to congress.
http://www.theglobalipcenter.com/sites/default/files/pressreleases/letter-359.pdf

Start boycotting these goods and services immediately and let these companies know that you will continue to do so until they actively withdraw support for SOPA.

Here’s links to contact info for each company. Try to make your message make sense. If you’re not a lawyer, don’t threaten to boycott a company that makes law practice software. It’s better to tell them that you’re disappointed in their decision to support SOPA and that you will tell anyone who will listen about their attack on free speech. Maybe even mention that you’ll tweet about it or post their decision on your Facebook page.

I recommend doing the following. Be polite, and call each of the companies. Here’s a sample script:

“Hi. I am calling because I found out that your company supports the Stop Online Piracy Act. This legislation is an attack on freedom of speech. I’ve decided to stop purchasing/watching/using your product/show/service until you actively withdraw support for the SOPA. I really enjoy your product/show/service, but I don’t want to support companies that support dangerous legislation. I plan to tweet and Facebook about your support of SOPA. Thank you for your time. Good bye.”

Writing hand written letters to these companies is also extremely effective.
