My Parents Try To Ban Pirating!

[TheFilePirater]

ahhhhhhhhhhh.....after so many piracy things in the newspapers my parents are tryin to stop me, i know its funny, but they REALLY try to stop it, watchin my comp all the time....HELP!!!!

[Somebody1234]

I think you better listen to them if you are a minor. They can be held legally responsible if you get caught. As an adult you can choose your own actions as the consequences will be your own.

[clocker]

Tell 'em you're glad you won't be spending so much time at the computer as it's really been cutting into your heroin habit.

how long is a piece of string?

the real odds of getting caught are high, there are so many people doing it, it'd cost a load to put everyone in prison

[TheFilePirater]

do you guys do it?

[TheFilePirater]

like leavin kazaa on all the time good chances of gettin caught?

[PsychoTrooper]

its starting to sound like we're talking about a heroin habit now...

what kind of piracy are you doing? Warez or P2P (i know they can be considered the same, by Warez i mean games and apps, by P2P i mean mp3's and the like)?
if its the Warez, doesnt it depend on the amount you do? the more into it you are, the better chance you have of being caught in my opinion. id think the feds would go after the bigger warez groups (dont know if you guys want me to mention names here or not) that get stuff out before its retail release. Billy who sits at his computer and listens to music he downloaded shouldnt be the FBI's first priority...

ill shut up now...

edit: i dont think leaving Kazaa on all the time could get you caught, though thats just me...

[TheFilePirater]

i just do moviez and mp3z NO WAREZ

all on kazaa

[PsychoTrooper]

i dont see much of a chance of you getting caught then

that shouldnt take too long

[jetje]

There are worl wide at least 5.000.000 people using filesharing but real figures would be a whole lot more..and only more people get involved into p2p! i don't have the statistics around so no more numbers...
You can figure it out they never can find all those individuals, and sue them, etc.. So i wouldn't be to afraid of that!.
If you don't sell or advertise with stuff you have ... chance of getting caught is petty much 0.

Only way that flesharing will be stopped is because of better software protection and lower prizes. !

Things like TCPA and DRM are the real threats to filesharing!

[TheFilePirater]

i give vcds to a few close friends...

[Proper Bo]

Here's my say, "MY SAY"

[Gkraker04]

May I give my 2 cents? Is that legal? Heh Heh.

[WeeMouse]

MY mum and Dad encourage me!

These things are best said out loud in a glaswegian accent.......

"Stacy gonna get us this song - I havnae heard it fur years..."
or
"I told auld Shug that you could make a Justin Timberlake record fur his wee granddaughter. so go and bloody well make it!"


Anyway I'm havering. Cant you just select the things you wanna download at night and then hide the KaZaA icon or something?

[MUSLEMAN]

all on kazaa
Unfortunately, the mp3's are the primary target for catching people. Movie files are abundant, but not on the high priority list, YET! Movies are usually fake, take too long for most people to download, and you can only watch them on a PC for the most part.

Regular pirated files of all other catagories are still being watched by some authorities, but not a priority either, until there is a practical standard figured out at the expense of the RIAA on how to get a grip on the illegal P2P. The all other software companies will follow suit.

[Acecool]

Not very high...

Ive had kazaa lite or winmx running over 3 years or around there around 24 hours a day 7 days a week, still no letters from anyone, sharing over 80 gb, almost 90

[that1dude]

im pretty sure that the government or what ever is trying to stop this isnt worried about the people downloading but mostly the people putting them on the internet. such as the guy who put the hulk on before it was even out. thats what they are worried about right now. but i hope im right :(
