Re: Savages!

Uh wait a minute. If they own the rights to the film and they put it on a website to download how is that an illegal download?

If you say well the movie company didn't do it then why are they not going after media defender for sharing said movie?

Re: Savages!

They are not claiming people download anything illegal from that site, and I am sure what they claim to offer is not even legit. But they are running a sneaky progie to see what contraban people do have on their pc. If they find stuff, they can copy all your personal info and documents so you are positively identified for later use in court. Very sneaky trick and much more damning without the hassle of isp supenas and such. I am sure there are lots of people that fall for it just like there are people that pay those croked sites $9.95 a month to use Kazaa and Emule.

It's also called computer crime. They give prison terms for this type of behavior.

Where have you been? Didn't Congress give the RIAA the "OK" to "break into" PC's who they "thought" were stilling music? I remember reading where people had a "black box" on their cable line to keep their cable box in "test mode" (blocking the code cable companies send to scramble the box). However, unsuspecting customers returned boxes thinking they were broke when Motorola send a silver bullet down the line to lock up the boxes. Then, with the boxes in hand.. turned it over to a 3rd party to bilk money out of the customer.. As with the RIAA, most claims were settled for 4k (some more). Think the paper said hundreds (in the Detroit metro area) were busted for "stealing" cable. Guess if it has the FCC or Congress's blessing.. it's ok..
