I fairly certain that number isn't accurate. What a bunch of clowns.

I'm pretty sure this has been posted before.
Hm, can't seem to find it with search (search on here sucks though).
Anyway apparently the judge said it was ridiculous to ask that much anyway and it should be limited to one offence per item. Which is obviously still going to be a huge, unpayable amount lol

The record companies are going broke because of their own stupidity. The clung to physical media even though any moron could tell that music was doing digital. Apple killed the record companies because they understood where the trend was going, Limewire had maybe a million downloads of the 11,000 songs that were illegal. At 99 cents each, that a million dollars, which is a drop in the bucket compared to what they lost by not embracing media-less music. When massive changes like that happen, the system collapses and the free market restructures it. iTunes beat you, get over it.

Anonymous' computer voice is so fucking annoying, it's so hard to understand what it's saying. Especially when it's got music over the top of it.

You'd think they could do a little better...you know, considering they regularly knock sites offline, you'd think that someone out of that group would be able to improve that voice.

Lol. Maybe. Pretty much anyone can set up a botnet though. After all it was invented by a fifteen (or so) year old.
I think there's a website where you can sign up to it when they attack a website lol

I like the voice, I like everything about em. I wish I was a super hack, that way I could go into these sites and change around a few letters just to mess with people.
ex: Change the word little into littel

You don't need to be a "super hack". Google can provide some very interesting loopholes.

can google tell me how to change the color of a hyprlink on a site where it's not permitted
because that's what I would prob be into, little goofy shit that doesn't hurt anyone
04-18-2011, 03:34 PM

Yup. If the site is insecure. Specific search terms can turn up great things. And you'd be surprised how many even high profile sites are insecure.

Specific terms, well can you be a littel bit more specific

Limewire being sued for 75 trillion dollars (actual amount).
Does $75 trillion even exist? The thirteen record companies that are suing file-sharing company Lime Wire for copyright infringement certainly thought so. When they won a summary judgment ruling last May they demanded damages that could reach this mind-boggling amount, which is more than five times the national debt...

If I hadn't found limewire the debt would probably only be $74 Billion.

Limewire won't even run on my computer. I use Frostwire instead.

Still, c'mon, what are they gonna do when they don't get 75 trillion dollars? Because they won't.

That's how it always starts I believe.
Then you come across a link that says "Billing Info". Then you go "hmmm".
Then you hear a loud bang and see a big white flash, then next thing you know you are sitting in the back of a black suburban.
(I agree though. Doing stuff like that would be funny lol.)
