    I know this is not what you in your self-righteousness want to hear but predators are necessary in Nature as they cull the weak and sickly and in doing so strengthen a species.Plus predators are cool and that is why sports teams have names like Raptors and Lions and Bengals and not Sheep and Pigs and Small Children.

    Also if it's necessary to compare groups to animals then I guess that would make us bugs as we bravely feed in the dark but tend to scurry like cockroaches when someone turns on the kitchen light.

    Yeah I know that's hard but the worst thing about the truth is that you can run from it as much as you want but in the end it's still basically inescapable.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    Does anyone know where TSH was hosted though? Was it in the UK? Or does FACT have jurisdiction or influence in other countries?

    Other than making site owners paranoid to the 37th degree, there isn't a whole lot of benefit reaped from having the "weaker", non-profiteering sites removed from our community.

    And as I see very little difference between filesharing and going to a library (which is deemed for the common good), I have to say the predators are doing little good for anyone. If I were to see a wolf pack off a small child in front of a library, I'd (actually go "HOLY FUCK!!! Did anyone else just see that?!!!) be inclined to put a stop to it after realizing that this was going to be a common occurrence.

    And your analogy regarding the cockroaches barely fits. The only reason we run like Hell is because the penalties for such a minor "offense" are so disproportionate to justice there is no other choice. People have been sharing books since the first book was hand printed. Why should that change now? Or was that the activity of cockroaches sharing the Bible with each other?

    It is not really FACT but FACT in association with City of London Pipcu police unit and they are, allegedly, only bothering with UK created content. They have influence and not extra-territorial powers but they will liaise with 'local to national' organisations in other countries to reduce piracy.

    Read it here: hxxp://www.cityoflondon.police.uk/advice-and-support/fraud-and-economic-crime/pipcu/Pages/Operation-creative.aspx and you see their methods.

    It wasn't their servers or their PayPal. Their domain registrar rolled over and coughed up their info. Which unfortunately, turned out to be legitimate.

    Ironically I reported you for offering invites outside the appropriate section.

    Not really but more out of laziness than moral uncertainty.

    RealtY got his page views. That's the ruling morality of the times. Fact.

    Thanks, I actually do have IPtorrents and it's the other tracker I use alongside whatcd. This is irritating though, because I relied on the top10 feature of TSH to keep up with all my tvshows. I imagine it would be alot more effort to sift through everything on IPT and I'll have to stay more organized so I'll remember to get my shows.

    I miss the days when I could just browse FTN with the genre filters I had in place for my 0day stuff, cause the uploaders there only put up the most mainstream stuff. Is that site also permanently dead? It really sucked when it briefly came back so I'm not too hopeful either way...
