its not just the owner! its you to! your sharing. and im sure theyll decide, fuck it, company isnt the place to shoot at… its the users! than your all fucked…
From The Oatmeal, I think it explains it pretty well.
… Everyone done playing with their tinfoil hats now?
False as long as your website is hosted inside the US and is a US owned website. See section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The point of SOPA is to go after foreign websites, with unintended consequences for some US based sites.
Where’s that stupid idiot " neon " now?
Whining about people from this site and Facebook I’m sure.
I figured by me posting a trollface they would realize I wasn’t serious but I guess not.
So much rage.
Double post. Stupid database error.
And dead. Both bills put on hold indefinitely. Well done internet crew. :bigclap:
Oh shit! Dropping that ka-nowledge on your ass… I think SOPA passing would bring a crippling halt to torrent sites. Demonoid was I believe in Brazil at one point and then moved to another country after there long shutdown and before Deimos stepped down as owner. PirateBay was Sweden I believe, but they were taken down BY Sweden IIRC. I’m sure USA would have liked to have a piece of that.
Block all the DNS lol
SOOO…UFC got hacked by the same hacker group???
---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 PM ----------
he website of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the world’s most popular martial arts organisation, has been hacked and visitors redirected to the hacker group’s site at Ugnazi.com.
The motives behind the attack are unconfirmed (now confirmed, see update below) but likely to be due to the UFC’s unwavering support of SOPA, a bill introduced to fight online trafficking of copyrighted content.
The UFC is notoriously ambitious with its attempts at pursuing sites who post streams to its live events; taking popular online streaming sites such as Justin.tv to court.
The UFC has always made clear it strongly supported the hotly debated SOPA bill. Most recently, a piece written by Lawrence Epstein, Executive Vice-President and General Counsel for Zuffa (the UFC’s parent company), once again defended his company’s position.
Dana White, the UFC’s current President and the face of the company, gave this response to the hacking on Twitter.
The image below is what US visitors of the UFC’s website will have seen at time of writing.
Update:
An email from the hacking group, also on Twitter, confirms the motivations behind the hacking:
“They happened to be vulnerable and we were lead to believe they are for SOPA.”
Different group…
That group isn’t anonymous
It’s kinda funny thought all these sites keep getting hacked by some really stupid bullshit
LOL @ UFC site…
now back to justin.tv
If nothing changed on the internet EXCEPT no longer being able to DL free movies and free computer software I would be totally OK with that. But we all know that’s not how it would roll out.
where the hell do i stream shit from now
UFC is so greedy they pay people to rat out and spy on Bars that are showing its events,the other day I was browsing the Job postings on craigslist and it was on there. :tdown:
Yeah, one of those fuckers got us.
PIPA and SOPA were NOT passed…then less than 24 hours later they do this - http://www.pcworld.com/article/248443/filesharing_site_megaupload_indicted_for_internet_piracy_shut_down_by_us.html#tk.mod_stln
Then in response the hacker group Anonymous does this:
This is going to get interesting.
Again, there was more to the megaupload thing than just having some albums hosted on their site. (See previous page posts by Onyx). Also, I saw the article about CBS.com and UniversalMusic.com. Shortly after it was posted I checked on both sites, and both were up and running and fully functional. So any damages that were done were very minimal and fixed rather quickly. Not that impressive.
Ok
The US government didn’t do anything illegal they followed current laws/procedures that are in place…
Which basically means if they wait and follow the proper legal procedures there isn’t a need for SOPA/etc.
Anonymous launched some lame denial of service attacks for a couple hours…lame…
From what other people said CBS and the other site didn’t get hacked someone just poisoned the DNS or some bs.
