Copyright Infringement And The Porn Industry

Ever since the good capitalist folks who created and operated Megaupload were busted for distributing or allowing copyright material to be distributed as well as money laundering and other things, I've actually been reading up on this stuff.  I've been reading many articles and posts about some of these new fangled rather shady lawyer operations who track people online and send rather intimidating letters to people's ISPs about how one of their customers has downloaded copyrighted material and if they don't pay a settlement outside of court which usually amounts to $125, $200, and the highest being $250, then this person will be named in a lawsuit and may pay $30,000.

One such shady law firm, and I say shady because this pretty much amounts to "hey, pay me off and this won't go any further" is a law firm called Copyright Settlement Group.  They can track down the IP addresses of people who have either downloaded shit, had their wi-fi Internet hacked with the hackers downloading shit, or people who have checked out peer to peer sites such as BitTorrent and not downloaded shit.  Apparently if you don't download shit your IP address still gets logged and these law firms come after you anyway.  Another such firm is called Copyright Enforcement Group who recently launched a, can you believe it, satellite platform to track down these god awful porno downloaders.  The press release announces the benefits of their system:

 

  • Stable global server network with 99.99% uptime
  • Unlimited asset tracking capability
  • Infinitely scalable
  • Unrivaled infringement volume
  • Maximum efficiency
  • Fully automated

Wow, all that to help out the makers of fuck flicks.  I'll be damned.

One pattern that I've noticed after reading about this for a couple of days is that this group goes after wi-fi users, mainly threatens people who have Charter as an ISP, asks for settlement payouts between $125 to $250, mainly threatens people who have used peer to peer file swapping sites or merely just visited them without downloading anything, mostly represents pornographers, and even posts links to pornographic material in the hopes that someone clicks it so they can send a letter.  As a matter of fact, their victims are mainly accused of downloading porno.

Really what this appears to be is some sort of shakedown or extortion tactic.  People can visit their website, put in a case number and password, and find out what monetary value they are being shaken down for.  Now, I realize that copyright infringement is bad.  Downloading someone else's material for your personal enjoyment without paying for it is somewhat bad.  A lot of people do that to see if they actually dig on the material and if they do, then they actually purchase it and if they don't, they delete the shit.  This particular issue can go both ways.  People are on the fence about it.

What I actually find comical about this whole situation is that this law firm if you want to call it that mainly represents porno.  Smut films.  Wanker films.  Fuck flicks.  People who videotape other people fucking.  And they really think they are doing something important.  And somehow the general public is supposed to laud their efforts.  "Oh wow, they're going after those bad people who illegally download smut and are protecting the virtuous producers of such films."  Wow.  Protecting their creative content.  I don't know what's so creative about videotaping people fucking but okay.

People are contacted via their ISP, most always Charter, with an email that informs them that their IP address has downloaded porno films that most people have never heard of.  The only porno films that I have heard of are "Deep Throat" and "Debbie Does Dallas".  Of course that probably due to the fact that those were the pioneer films of porn and the fact that they are part of many jokes.  Recipients of such emails usually receive something of this nature:

This is the type of email that people are sent.  Which kind of makes me wonder about shit like this.  You're always warned that there are many malicious, nefarious people out there generating emails that look official but may contain viruses and whatnot.  Maybe I'm crazy but if I were to receive an email like that knowing full well that I don't rent porn flicks or purchase them and definitely wouldn't download one, I might regard being sent something like this as one of those official looking emails that I've been warned about.  Just food for thought.

From what I've gathered, these law firms and I use that term pretty loosely are more interested in receiving settlements out of court than actually taking alleged offenders to court.  Which I can see why.  Most judges are your average strait laced, conservative, family values type of Republican people and I can only imagine appearing in a court room representing some pervert who producers films of people fucking.  With some really bad, cheesy musical score.  I'm sure you have an aural image of what I mean.  And some poor schmuck sitting there being accused of watching this shit.  Kind of bad for both parties.

Now I've read that the porn industry is a multi billion dollar industry but like other industries with music being a prime example, it's over saturated.  Anyone can videotape people fucking.  All you need is a video camera and some people agreeing to participate in a fuck session for an amount of cash.  Then you get it produced and make copies of it on DVD and put some lurid photograph on the cover of the DVD case, and sell it for ten bucks.  So I can see where these porno people might want to make some extra cash and claim that they're losing money that was never earned and might not even have been earned if some high school kid hadn't downloaded "Fuck Me Until I Drop From Exhaustion".  This appears to me to be the case.  I've seen numerous redacted letters of people who have been accused of downloading fuck flicks that no one has ever heard of produced by studios that no one has ever heard of.  So I can well imagine that with fuck flicks being low budget, you need a way to earn some extra cash.  Capitalism at its best.

If you read the letter you noticed that people can settle online.  You can't send a check or money order or drop the payment off in person due to security reasons.  Ha ha ha.  Pretty innovative. 

One of the FAQ questions on I think the Copyright Settlement Group is:

Q: What if I have an unsecured wireless network/router?

A: The Internet Service Provider (ISP) account holder is responsible for securing the connection and legally responsible for any infringement(s) that result from an unsecured wireless network/router.

That's pretty damn funny since most people don't know much about using the Internet aside from turning on the computer, installing Norton, looking at websites, and turning off the computer.  Unless you're a computer geek, you probably don't know much about securing anything and even the most secure systems get hacked into.  Ask the FBI and the DOJ about being hacked. 

Basically what this looks like to me is a front for the fuck flick industry to make money.  Put up a link of a fuck flick no one has ever heard of on a peer to peer network, get people to click on it, and then threaten to sue them if they don't pay up a settlement amount of $125, $200, or $250.  You can definitely rake in some cash if you scare enough people.  The website TechDirt posts about this sort of thing a lot and if you are hit with one of these letters you do have options and the EFF can help you out with that.  Only thing I wonder about is if a minor clicks on such a link, can these fly by night law firms wound up in some serious legal trouble?  Making porn accessible to a minor?  After all if you can nail people by entrapment, maybe you can get nailed as well.

A Musing

I once again read an article about Obama and his Kenyan father who for all intents and purposes was really just a sperm donor. He didn't take much interest in his son. Having a foreign born national as a parent and an American as the other parent is merely an accident of birth. It is not the fault of the individual. As the daughter of an American and a foreign born national, I feel special. Yes, that's right. Special. I'm proud of that fact. I am the result of two different cultures. I have two different worldviews. My mind is not limited to just one perspective. When people insult Obama for having a foreign born national as a parent and really that's what people are pissed about, they insult all of us who have a foreign born national as a parent. Fuck that. I'm proud of who my mother is and I am special. I'm not going to let anyone take that away from me.  This article stated that Obama has not shown his medical records, personal records, and birth certificate.  Is there a law that I am unaware of that requires every President to do this or is this just limited to people with a foreign born parent who have the audacity to run for office?  Are we the children of one foreign born parent not American enough to suit people?  Were I to run for President would I have to supply all this stuff because my mother is from Switzerland?  I have no problem with a President showing such things as long as EVERY President has to show this stuff.  Otherwise I call bullshit.  Unfortunately Obama never really got to know his biological father.  His worldview is 100 percent American.  He only knows one culture and that's the American one.  So why give him so much shit over his father?  I'm sure had he had his way he would have wanted a father who stayed around to raise him and see him mature into a young man.  So not only is he being slammed for having a foreign born national for a parent, but he also is having the fact that his father didn't stick around shoved in his face.  That's uncool.  If you don't like his policies, fine.  I don't like many of them myself.  But stop giving him shit for having a foreign born national for a father.  There isn't a damn thing wrong with that.  And stop shoving it in his face that his dad didn't stick around.  People don't need to be reminded of shit like that.  Also have some damn respect for his parents.  They are both deceased and cannot speak for themselves.  That's fucked up.

Homosexuality And Bradlee Dean

New York did a stellar thing just recently.  They decided that gay people have a right to get married and be happy.  Kudos to the people of New York who feel that gay people are Americans too and have the same right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that straight people have.  Everyone born in this country has the same rights.  Those rights don't depend on who you fuck.

I've noticed lately that Christian fundamentalists have really gone over the edge when it comes to homosexuality.  They've been howling about it for years and whining and wailing about how it's an abomination to their god and how it's destroying America and traditional families.  Amazingly enough, America is still standing and straight people are still marrying and having children.  I guess the real reason why they're so sore is because many people view human beings as human beings and many people don't have to believe in their view of Christianity or don't have to believe Christianity at all.  And we sure as shit don't have to abide by their Bible.  That's their text book on how to live life, not mine.

I've known a few gay people throughout my life.  People I worked with.  Perfectly normal people who live normal lives.  Work for a living, pay their taxes, vote, and even serve in the military.  And just happen to love someone of the same gender.  They're hardly the evil monsters that Christian fundies make them out to be.  They're not lurking around in huge packs with some insidious, nefarious plan to make us straight people gay.

These Christian fundies are really screaming now because a lot of people are asking for anti-bullying legislation.  Now, I'm not one who believes you can legislate human behavior.  The people I truly find at fault for producing assholes that like to give others shit are the parents of these assholes.  They absolutely refuse to raise decent children.  They refuse to teach their children manners, courtesy, politeness, and respect.  Why do they refuse to do this?  Because they think it's "politically correct" to be a decent person and we can't have that.  Oh, hell no.  When I was a kid, my mom told me if I didn't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all.  We have definitely turned into a nation of people who say just anything no matter how insulting, hurtful, boorish, vile, and nasty it is.  And when you say something these people scream it's freedom of speech.  Now I believe in freedom.  It's just that your fucking freedom ends when you're stepping on mine or anyone else's.  Then you can jam your freedom up your ass.

This anti-bullying legislation is being asked for because kids are commiting suicide.  Why?  Because they are either being accused of being gay when they are not or they are gay and being harrassed, intimidated, and even asked to commit suicide because the world would be better off without them.  And these kids believe it.  Why do children say such horrendous shit?  Because their parents believe gay people should die.  It all goes back to the parents.  You can legislate all you want but fucked up people will raise fucked up children who will become fucked up adults.  It's a vicious cycle.

The reason why Christian fundies don't want anti-bullying legislation?  Because the dreaded homosexuals will come and get your children!  They're just waiting in the wings to prey on innocent young minds.  They will turn your children gay!  I'd like to know how the fuck you can turn straight people gay.   Do we have two buttons on us somewhere?  Press button 1 and we're straight.  Press button 2 and we're gay?  Is that how that shit works?

Christian fundies are totally vehement when it comes to gay people.  Always coming up with reasons why gay people are this insidious evil force out to get us all.  They talk about gay people all the time.  Imagine what all perverted shit gay people are up to.  Imagine they live some sort of lifestyle that's different from everyone else's.  I've often wondered why it is that these fundies talk so much about gay people.  Of course it's mainly because they're gay themselves and have a fucking complex about it.  They're also oversexed.  Goodness knows I'm no sexual prude myself but these people think about sex more than I do.  Of course I don't have hangups about sex like these people do.  They think it's perverted and sinful and dirty and bad.  They feel guilty because they think about sex all the time and the Good Book says they shouldn't.  But they do and they engage in it with the opposite sex and with the same sex and just hope to hell they won't get found out if they're politicians.  Of course some of them do get found out.  Goes with the territory.

A friend of mine who lives in Minnesota, you know, that state that has some insane stupid bitch named Michele Bachmann who wants to run for President?  I mean really, I feel strongly that the mentally challenged should be given every opportunity to succeed in life but the Presidency is really taking it too far.  This friend of mine told me about some fucknut named Bradlee Dean who fancies himself a minister.  Has some ministry called, you won't believe it, You Can Run But You Cannot Hide.  I'm not quite sure what I'm running from and can't hide from but maybe it's nut cases like him that are out to force their bullshit on everyone else.  Maybe I should run and try to hide but nah, I stand my ground and tell assholes like him to go fuck themselves.

This Dean guy used to be a drug addict and then one day he found Jaysus!  Can we say halleluah and amen?  And please put 10 percent of your earnings in the plate please.  Now I know that when pathetic losers realize on some visceral level that they're pathetic losers and find Jaysus, it's supposed to be heartwarming and make us feel all fuzzy inside.  We're supposed to forget that they drank too much, did too many drugs, got too violent, and got arrested too many times solely because they found Jaysus!  Which makes me wonder about something.  Before they found Jaysus and while they were doing all this self-destructive shit to themselves, were they flaming atheists?  Or did they lose Jaysus in a back alley while buying drugs from a drug dealer and then one day they went back and miraculously saw Jaysus standing there?  I mean really, what is this shit?  Could it be that one day they realized that they were seriously fucking themselves, destroying their families, and losing their friends, and decided that shit had to stop?  So they picked up the pieces, apologized, and straightened out?  Nah, that's too mundane.  Adding Jaysus to the mix makes shit so much more exciting and people like to hear it.  Jaysus is a commodity.  You use Jaysus when you need him.  Especially if you're a pathetic loser that wants to make people think you aren't one.

I have a dear friend who was addicted to heroin.  He overdosed on it and damn near died.  He was addicted for five years.  He's also Catholic.  Has been all his life.  I asked him if at any time in his life when he was doing anything stupid such as using heroin, if he somehow lost Jaysus and forgot he was Catholic, and needed to refind Jaysus.  You know what he told me?  He was just as Catholic when he was using heroin as he always has been.  It's just that he was offered heroin, thought it would be fun to try, and found out how addictive and dangerous it was.  He didn't lay his addiction at God's feet.  He didn't even lay it at the feet of the person who offered it.  He laid it as his own feet.  He was solely responsible for fucking up and he admitted to it.  It wasn't Satan who tempted him or a loss of his faith.  He was simply a human being who made a big mistake and learned from it.  He apologized to his family, his friends, and to God.  He felt God had given him a second chance and he was going to take it.  Fact is, he was Catholic the entire time.  Which makes me wonder something else.  Are people like this Dean really Christians or have they just gone from one extreme to the other?  Instead of being addicted to drugs and doing fucked up shit, they turn into religious fanatics.  They become more biblical than the Bible.  Their religious fanaticism is just as bad as their drug addiction was and maybe even worse.  They think that because they found Jaysus and cleaned up their act, that they have some inroad to God that no one else does.  The sad fact is this character's cocaine addiction would only have fucked him up.  Now he's trying to fuck up your kids.

He was a fucked up pathetic loser addicted to cocaine and now he's found Jaysus and has become a fanatic who is rabidly anti-gay and says some really stupid shit.  This fucked up bastard actually goes to public schools supposedly to talk to kids about how bad drugs are and starts a fucking Christian revival in a school auditorium to a captive audience.  When in the hell did it become legal to try to convert other people's children without asking for parental consent?  He even goes so far as telling teenage girls to save their virginity for marriage because guys don't want leftovers and that they must submit to their husbands.  Hello fucktard, this is the 21st century.  We don't submit to jackshit let alone men.  Deal with it, accept it, and get the fuck over it.  Oh dude, and I really like the photo of you when you were sporting the copycat Axl Rose look.  You can see that picture at this link and I suggest reading the whole article that goes with the photo of this depraved fucktard:

http://gods4suckers.net/archives/2010/06/05/bradlee-dean-friends-an-american-horror-story

Why don't you try some originality for a change?  He and two other fucktards have a band called Junkyard Prophet.  Never heard of them?  Me either.  They start their bullshit out with an hour long set because apparently they can't get booked anywhere except in high school auditoriums and then after they're done causing kids to go deaf, they start in on their fundamentalist right wing political bullshit because not only do you try to convert people's offspring to your religious brand of bullshit, you also try to brainwash them with your political views also without parental consent.  Dean, I hate to tell you this but religion and politics are a parents' domain when they raise children.  You have no authority to interfere in what religous views people want their kids to have or what political views they want their kids to have.

Here is an excerpt of what one of their stay away from alcohol messages turned into:

Most of its appearances are at public high schools, he said.  A story in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette is an example of the criticism the group has received over its presentations.  It told of complaints by students and parents after You Can Run But You Cannot Hide appeared at a high school in Eureka Springs, Ark.  “Some students ... said that what began as a message to stay away from alcohol transgressed into rants from lecturers on topics including abortion, gun control, the sanctity of marriage and ‘the dangers of rock and roll.’”

This asshole thinks he has the right to discuss this shit with other people's children?  Oh, give me a fucking break.  This is what anti-drug and sex education in the schools has turned into.  Evangelizing your children without your consent.  Scary shit.  People who are fucked up losers and find Jaysus are nothing more than fanatics who have traded one fix for a different fix.  With Dean, instead of snorting cocaine, he snorts evangelical Christianity which gives him a different high I guess.  One of power tripping and control. 

What I find truly amazing is that this fucktard has managed to be booked at 226 schools across the country because he fantasizes that we don't have separation of church and state and that we need to live in a fucking theocracy where we have to believe the fucking bullshit he believes and we have to abide by his Bible.  You would think one or two schools would be suckered into booking him for anti-drug programs but 226?  You would think word would get around that this guy is a fucking right wing evangelist who has no right filling young minds with his bullshit but somehow it didn't.  You would think a school district would be checking these fucknuts out before they schedule them but they don't.  And this stupid Bachmann bitch thinks he needs to visit 2,600 schools where he can brainwash your children without your permission.  This looney bitch needs to be taken off the ballot.  She needs to be removed from office.

It's really amazing what lunatics you find out there.  Drug addiction is definitely a dark side of any human being.  What's even darker is when these people trade drug addiction for an addiction to Christian evangelism and think they're on a fucking mission from God to fill your children's heads up with evangelism and right wing rhetoric without asking you, the parent, if you even approve of this shit.  Because Bradlee Dean doesn't think he needs your consent.  The fucker probably thinks he's God.  He put out a DVD called "My War" where apparently he's totally surprised that he and his crew of fucktards have gotten kicked out of schools.  Like that was some travesty of justice or something.  He thinks it's just awful because he was telling "the truth" which in nothing but his own personal, warped, and twisted religious beliefs and political beliefs.  That's hardly what I would call "the truth".  It's about time to put a stop to this.  I don't give a shit what fucking paranoid delusions this self-hating gay cocaine addict is suffering from.  He doesn't need to be addressing children.  He needs to deal with his inner demons, accept what he is, and leave the rest of us the hell alone.  And he needs to stay away from your children.

Liberals are criminals?  I don't use illegal narcotics.  Never have.  I have never traded one addiction in for another one and then thought I was on some fucking mission from God and illegally try to impose ideas on other people's children.  He thinks homosexuals are pedophiles?  He's the worst form of a pedophile.  Talking to children about other people's sex lives, when girls can have sex and can't have sex as well as telling them they are inferior to men and need to "submit".  Bradlee Dean is a pedophile warping children's minds.  And he sure thinks about homosexual sex a lot.  And how homosexuals prey on children.  Maybe he's got a thing for gay sex and children.  He certainly likes to prey on children.

By the way if he's so opposed to rock music, then why does he admire the likes of Tommy Lee from Motley Crue who is likes to beat women?  Maybe that's how you get girls to "submit" to men.  Beat them into submission.  All in all, this guy is a total fanatic who is backed by poweful politicians and may be coming to a school near you.  Be warned.

Breed Mares For Jaysus

My friends have been talking about this Quiverfull thing.  Some of them have just heard about this and now they realize that the Duggar family is/was on TV promoting this shit.  "Look at how much fun we have with a zillion kiddies for the Lord!"  One of my friends came across this.

 

BIRTHING GOD’S MIGHTY WARRIORS

Re-examines our ideas about birth control.

God’s people were never supposed to use it.

But with the introduction of the birth control pill in 1960 and its blessing by the World Council of Churches in 1961, Protestant ministers and their wives jumped on the birth control bandwagon. Their action lead many of God’s people to accept a lifestyle of family planning. Twenty-five years ago in the mid 1980′s home-schoolers revived the no birth control belief and today the movement has broadened to tens of thousands of couples.

Basically rethinking birth control has gone mainstream.

Those of us who are quiverfull know that quiverfull mothers are some of the happiest because we are birthing and raising our children. It’s a shame the liberal press is attempting to portray us as a bunch of “uneducated breeders” being forced to go along with dictatorial husbands. My husband is one of the nicest guys in the world, hardly a dictator and I am a college educated women. If this were true of other quiverfullers then there’s got to be some unhappy women out there!!  RIGHT?

It’s been 25 years now. A lot of women have become quiverfull. Some of their sons and daughters are grown and are becoming quiverfull. Surely in 25 years time given the internet, youtube, blogs, books, cult watching scandals, religion in the news and the ease of information in our press wouldn’t a large group of women have spoken out by now?

THE TRUTH IS: They’re not out there!

Letting God give us children makes mothers happy and after twenty five years quiverful mothers are some of the happiest!

This is my response to this. 

I've always said that I didn't have children because there were plenty of people out there having enough of them that I didn't need to participate.  And you ladies are a prime example of that.  Definitely don't have to worry about the extinction of the human race.  While I could care less if you have 100 of them I just sincerely hope that you are supporting these children on your own.  Because I have no interest in paying to feed them or paying for their medical care.  So as long as you aren't on food stamps or medicaid, have as many as you like.  I find nothing admirable about having a bunch of kids that you can't support on your own as I've noticed that some of these families find themselves needing outside help with food and clothing.  Just make sure that your husbands support you and your families on their own.  I refuse to financially support any children that are born under these circumstances and I will have issues if I find that ANY of you belonging to this "movement" are on public assistance.  If that's not the case then birth away for Jesus ladies.  By the way, what's with all the militaristic stuff and "the final generations"?  That's kind of creepy as I totally abhor violence of any type.

I truly find these people very creepy.  They're part of a cult movement that believes in mass producing babies and brainwashing these kids into doing the same and there is a seedier side to this business.  They honestly think that if they produce enough of these "warrriors" they will take over the government and put any business out of commision that offends their sensibilities.  In other words, they would very much like to force their lifestyle and beliefs on the rest of us.  Turn the country into a theocracy.  We as a free, democratic nation where no one has to abide by someone else's personal beliefs need to be wary and not allow this to happen.

Pamela Geller

There's a skeleton in everyone's closet I guess.

 

Pamela Geller, also known as Pamela Oshry, (born 1958 or 1959 on Long Island, New York) is an anti-Islamic American blogger, political activist, and co-founder of Stop Islamization of America. She has been cited as one of the most visible opponents of the Park51 community center and mosque in Lower Manhattan.
 
Her weblog, “Atlas Shrugs”, is named in homage to Ayn Rand’s book Atlas Shrugged, as she supports Objectivist philosophy. The blog has been criticized by Media Matters for America called “right-wing” by The Jewish Week and “extreme” by The Guardian.
 
Mark Potok, a spokesman for the Southern Poverty Law Center, has described Geller’s rhetoric as “over the line” and “hate speech“.
 
Pamela Geller has lent her support to a number of other political causes. She has been a strong defender of former Serbian president Slobodan Milošević, and has denied the existence of Serbian concentration camps in the 1990s. She has also claimed that black South Africans are launching a “genocide” against whites and expressed support for the far right English Defence League.
 
Eric Boehlert, a senior fellow at Media Matters for America said that “Pamela Geller been instrumental, she has whipped up hatred in the right-wing blogosphere and now that’s spilled out into the wider community.
 
Controversial postings on “Atlas Shrugs” have included a number of false claims,including that Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan (who is Jewish) supports Nazi ideology (accompanied by a fake picture of her in a Nazi uniform), a video suggesting that Muslims have sex with goats, a doctored photo showing President Obama urinating on an American flag and false claims that Obama’s mother was involved in pornography and that Obama “was involved with a crack whore in his youth”.Geller has also used her site to accuse President Obama of anti-Semitism and doing the bidding of “Islamic overlords,” while posting an essay suggesting, without any evidence, that the President is the “love child” of Malcolm X. During an RT Television News interview, reporter Lauren Lister repeatedly questioned Geller’s claim that she is not anti-Muslim, at one point calling attention to Geller’s having posted a drawing of Muhammad on her blog with the face of a pig superimposed over his own. Geller responded by saying “I don’t know where it is in America that you can’t make jokes or make fun.”
