There are many programs out there to download to change your IP address to a proxy server address in a country that ignores copy write laws. Best one I've found is Hide IP Platinum. One click and your changed. Only thing is, its a pain in the rear when you open google and its in another language. lol But at least you can still get into TorrentSpy and ISO Hunt. |

I can use google to find the direct .torrent links themselves. That means Google is no better than the torrent index sites! ONOES! |

So does Google. So, you obviously believe that Google should be shut down as well.
And so do DNS servers! Why, if you're in china, half the internet is illegal! Quick, shut down the internet to preserve international laws! |

According to my interpretation, linking to the "illegal" content is a violation of DMCA Section 512(d) regarding Information location tools, assuming that the servers are located in the U.S.
If they aren't in the US, this is a stupid lawsuit.
Though, I hardly see what a DMCA violation has to do with handing over all U.S. user data to the MPAA.
It would seem the majority of content on these sites: suprnova, torrentspy, mininova, etc. is illegal and the operators know that it... it is sad though, that the **AA's don't try to embrace the technology and understand the overall message of "our movies/music suck and we charge an arm and a leg for it" |

copyrights are flawed and their current form should be abolished. copyright law should be totally rewritten and be retroactive and basicly a work has copyright for 20 years firm and then goes public domain. i mean should it be illegal for me to download elvis? no it shouldnt because the King died over 20 years ago.
the original idea of the copyright was to protect the artist and make sure they get credit for their work.
today the corperations have mutated that to be to make sure they make optimal profits for the next century.

Linking to "illegal" content is not illegal and never has... Sorry man, if they aren't breaking the law, ergo shouldn't "be driven from the field." |

VCR's can potentially copy protected works, same with Xerox machines, yet both of these are legal. |

Well, as usual instead of reserving all un-enumerated rights to the people, the courts chose to deny the right to link to government/corporate censored material. See the DeCSS/2600 case for the root of these problems.
But hey, if the next president doesn't have a distraction for us, we might be able to pass some laws that would please the majority of voters on this issue. |
