Australian Federal Police Raid Major ISPs
pflodo writes "The Australian (newspaper) has an article about Telstra the major Australian ISP and other 'declined to name' ISPs that have been raided by Australian Federal Police to 'seek the identity of particular subscribers' in relation to their activity and files stored on the ISP's servers. I imagine they will eventually raid some domestic homes and make a scapegoat of some unfortunate teenagers."
There is a dramatic difference between creating and recording your own music, and copying that created by others. Halting piracy does not have any bearing on your ability to create music of your own.
What I want to understand is why morons such as yourself don't understand this distinction? Or do you understand and you just use bloody stupid analogies to distort the issue?
What a fucking idiot you are. You and the moderator should be ashamed of yourselves. Did anyone bother reading the linked article. The person in question arrested had made threatening remarks in an internet chat room about the president. Trust me, and let me say if someone logs onto a chat room and make threatening remarks about the president I will fall all over myself grabbing a phone to call the cops on the bastard. Why don't you make sure you post ALL the facts rather than sensationalizing a threat to the president? Making threats against the president in this age of fighting terrorism is a serious offense. I hope the guy gets sent up for it.

Australia sucks. Simply. Move away if you live there.
