BitTorrent's Creator Bram Cohen Interviewed

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the mega-props-to-this-guy dept.

Delta-9 writes "The New York Times has this interview (free reg. req.) with Bram Cohen, the author/creator of the widely popular BitTorrent p2p application." Talks a bit about BitTorrent, its implications, but also a lot about Bram himself. Interesting piece.

    -1 Redundant, some whore got to it before you!

    You are the lose, even at karma whoring. Man, I can't imagine how lame you must feel right now. If I were you, I'd just end it all. Do you really want to have to tell your internet friends that you can't even karma whore well? I don't think so. Really I don't see how you can live with yourself. You suck so bad that here I am, writing this long ass reply about how bad you really suck.

    Really, pal, it's time to call it quits. It's a safe bet that this isn't the first time you've failed so miserably, and it's a sure shot that it won't be the last. Do you really want to continue this string of terrible, terrible failures? Wouldn't it just be easier to go out while you're not as far behind as you're going to be in a couple years?

    In conclusion, YOU FAIL IT. You are likely to continue FAILING IT, and therefore should give up.

    I'm still looking for the "Gayniggers From Outer Space " movie you reference in your crap floods on bit torrent. Get your asses in gear! I want to see it!

    Thinking I could get some free (as in beer) stuff, I surfed out to supernova.org only to find the following when displaying the search page:

    Perhaps there is some sort of moral lesson here about honor amongst thieves.
