Slashdot Mirror
Aimee Deep Interview
LawGeek writes "Aimee Deep is probably most famously known as the highly attractive cover-girl of Madster (formerly known as Aimster). Since being involved with Madster (her father's business), she has had the opportunity to become more interested in legal and business issues surrounding the music distribution business and now blogs on the subject. Greplaw editor Mikael Pawlo recently interviewed the 18-year old Ms. Deep on various topics."
How about the sound of thousands of eyes rolling at the parroted cyber-libertarian cliches? Yeah, she's "only" 18, but couldn't she come up with something creative, or at least interesting to say? Whoops, I forgot, perky boobs in a camo bikini let one get away with shit like that. I apologize for the interuption, let the fapping continue.

use their body and fliting to get ahead, don't they ever want to be judged by their mind and merrits? even when you click the link for the interview her picture still stays there taking up half the frame, like its part of the content or something, and the first question is just flirty remarks.
That being said my nipples are hard and she has a great future ahead of her.
Who gives a shit?
No, seriously. This is like interviewing Anna Nicole Smith. She got famous from
showing her tits, and now all of the sudden we're supposed to be interested in her message ?
...I was gonna post and say "who cares about the interview, why not just go straight to the pictorial?" but you beat me to it. Well done!
For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
I haven't even looked at the blog, so I'm talking out my ass here but...
who on Slashdot could possibly care what an 18 year old poster girl has to say about the legal issues of IP?
When did anyone on slashdot get such pompous standards as to what they read? God bless this site, but for Bob's sake it's nothing but a bunch of 18 year old (physically or otherwise) boys spouting off on the legal issues of IP and occasionally even more weighty topics.
If there's one place that M. Nobody Inparticular can feel free to spout off like an authority on any topic, it's got to be slashdot.
So - not to get too serious - but is the problem that she's a girl?
Cheers.
Highly attractive? Well, that's open to debate. Let's just say that I wouldn't look twice at her but, from the posts I've seen so far, there are obviously some people out there who would kill their mothers to meet this girl.
Speaking of "girl", that's exactly what she is: a girl and not a woman. If a thinly-veiled opportunity to lust over someone who's not even out of her teens is considered "News for Nerds" or "Stuff that matters" then is it any wonder that Slashdot is often laughed at by more mainstream news outlets and (IIRC) blocked by some parental control software? And I haven't even mentioned sexism.
Anyhow, all that could be excused if she had something useful (informative, insightful, interesting, funny or any combination thereof) to say. But, clearly, she doesn't. What next: interviews with Cameron Diaz on her favourite websites?
Seriously, between this story and the earlier story about (shock, horror) a review of a mobile phone, this must have been a seriously slow news day. Personally, I think it's sad that the Slashdot editors haven't yet grasped the concept that publishing for publishing's sake is a mistake rather than a necessity.

Some people like women who actually feel like women rather than skeletons. Her gut is not gross just because it's not anorexic. THIS is what a gross gut looks like. (warning, image is not for the faint of heart; it's no tubgirl, but you've been warned).

I am just surprised that she lives that close to me! (Cohoes is a town just north of RPI, and about ten minutes down the road from Albany) I feel a bit too old for an 18-year-old geek model, though.
:)
Is it suddenly not acceptable for slashdotters to joke about the stereotypical single-34-year-old-living-in-mom's-basement image? Seems like I see a lot of posts on here along the lines of "hey, she's not so hot, I can do better than that!" No, you can't. That's why you're posting to slashdot. If you could, you'd be doing something else on a saturday night.
I get the feeling that a lot of the people here complaining that she isn't so good looking have a hidden agenda - trash-talk the attractive girl, so the other geeks think you're fighting off women with a stick. It didn't work for me, I just assumed you took a break from the pr0n to read some slashdot. I for one think she's attractive, maybe not supermodel attractive, but if I saw her on the street I'd take notice. And she lives nearby so I might just see her on the street! Then I can be all like, hey, you're that girl from Aimster, and she'd be all like yeah, that's me baby, what's up, and I'd be all like nothin, what's up with you, wanna go out for a beer, and she'd be all like I can't, I'm only 18, and I'd be like hey, how about if I bought you some beer and we drank it over at my place, and stuff. (Sorry, I'm in the middle of moving, so I'm exhausted and all I have set up is my computer)
I really hate signatures, but go to my website.
It's called MARKETING!
As for the interview itself, I would like to know how it was conducted. It looks to me like it was conducted over AIM, in which case I'm sure John either wrote the responses himself or was standing over the typist's shoulder coaching him/her. If it was conducted over telephone or in person I'd be very surprised.
Wow, rather intimidated by good looking women aren't you? So let me get this straight, from the lack of evidence to suggest she is a brainless twit, it would appear that she couldn't have typed the answers herself because:
A) She is a girl
B) She is a hot girl (as if looks relate to brains in any way)
C) She is only 18
D) Someone else (not her) involved in Aimster is a felon (BTW, if you have ever used a P2P system, you are probably a thief, maybe even a felon)
Would you have the same contempt if it were an 18 year old male "hacker"?
I can't honestly say I know for sure that she is very smart, or concerned about any of the issues brought up in the interview. But what reason does anyone have to doubt her intelligence?
- I love animals. I try to eat at least one a day.
Ok, Just for the record I am a happily married straight male. As I was browsing through the posts, most of them sound like a bunch of sex crazed 16 year old boys. Ok, this might be a long shot, but are there any girls who read slashdot? Ok stop laughting, I'm serious. I would like to know what the ladies of slashdot think of this Aimee Deep girl. Once you take away the tits, whats left?
It never ceases to amaze me how nit-picky geek guys are about women.
There's an easy explanation. Geeks hide their fear of relationships behind their "high standards". Set your standards high enough and you'll never have to cope with the difficulties of relationships again.
Of course I'm talking from experience.
Sorry, but I cannot be the only one that finds the use of clueless bikini-clad teenagers to sell an important issue rather a turn-off.

Is how this ties into "my rights online"?
a teenage girl. Which is exactly what she is. No, she's definitely not a geek (sorry). She does seem to know a little bit more than her peers about copyright and the courts.. which is to say, not much. There's some intelligence there - whether it's hers or she was fed some answers, I can't tell. I hope she doesn't go into a career in modeling, especially if she does actually have some brains.
Finding out that most of those pictures were taken while she was underage... all I can say is her dad must have serious problems to let her, nay encourage her, to do that.
