Then you, of course, come along and try to change the subject to something else entirely, something to deflect the attention from Harold’s failing. He slipped up and gave an example of the very thing he claims can’t work. His point, which I’m sure you got and I’m also certain you’re trying to obscure, is that Harold just argued for a business model that he’s always arguing against. If they weren’t CHOOSING to give away THEIR content then THEY wouldn’t “be giving away their content”. Here’s the other part: If the files are legal, why go to all the effort to hide the sources? Why use hidden trackers? Why go through the process? What the heck are you hiding? Collapse replies (7) Reply View in chronologyĪctually, he’s not almost right, he’s exactly right. Sort of makes that 4000 number on your NIN file seem small). For reference, the top file on TBP (episode of lost had 48227 seeders and 50464 leechers. The NIN files shared are the rare exception – and they aren’t shared specifically by TPB.

One clean and sober guy in the middle of a rack den doesn’t suddenly make crack acceptable. If TPB was even half legal use, or heck, even 10% legal use, you might have an argument – but the occassional legal file mixed in with hundreds if not thousands of rips, cracks, and pirated material doesn’t suddenly make it all good. Just because they set up this site doesn’t suggest for a minute that they also put the material on TBP. They are using this site as marketing, to get people intereted to watch thier show, so that comedy central will pay them for it because comedy central gets more viewers and can sell the ads higher. If P2P was doing what they wanted, there would be no need for “south park studios”. Wow, how do I even start to address this? Collapse replies (8) Reply View in chronology Lastly, the people that post on TechDirt will tell you when they think you’re right. So from my limited and completely worthless group, I’d conclude that the vast majority of sharing is legit. Blank only has 6, I guess it wasn’t that good. Fedora 10 has almost 4000 people sharing it (vary old torrent). Just on my torrents there are over 1000 people sharing it and it’s an old torrent. Third, quite a few people are still sharing NIN files. Doesn’t mean that guns should be illegal. I’d bet that all 100 are someone shooting someone else. Look at the top 100 news articles about guns. Second, Just because you think the number one use is for illegal activities doesn’t mean that the tool is illegal.

And South Park is questionable, Mat and Trey don’t care about piracy (that’s why they created south park studios so they didn’t have to download their own shows any more)

Of course they’re going to be number one.

And, as David Title points out, the likely end result is merely that an arms race has begun, where The Pirate Bay will create a workaround, and Facebook will have to block yet again…įiled Under: copyright, infringement, links, terms of serviceįirst, most of those are TV shows that just aired this week (if not yesterday). There were plenty of more reasonable ways that Facebook could have handled this, and it chose the sledge hammer approach.

No copyright is infringed by a link alone.

Furthermore a link should not be considered infringing by itself. There are plenty of legitimate uses for The Pirate Bay, and there is a significant number of legitimate offerings on the site. Now, it may very well be true that the majority of content shared via The Pirate Bay is unauthorized and infringing. Rather than dealing with it intelligently, it overreacted and has blocked any and all links to The Pirate Bay, noting that due to the ongoing lawsuit and “controversy” it’s basically decided to assume all links to The Pirate Bay are infringing and a violation of Facebook’s terms of service. The question was whether it would be the entertainment industry or Facebook first. But, you knew that someone would overreact negatively. I didn’t bother writing up the story from a couple weeks back about a The Pirate Bay feature to easily share links to torrents on Facebook, because it wasn’t particularly interesting.
