Slashdot Mirror
TorrentBits.org and SuprNova.org Go Dark
Numerous people wrote in with similar stories: "Without providing a reason, both of these sites have shut down: SuprNova.org and TorrentBits.org." We mentioned a few days ago that the MPAA was going after Bittorrent sites.
Maybe it was a flashcrowd? (pertaining to yesterday's story)
But I just bought my suprnova.org t-shirt!
This is terrible! Where will people get their movies now? Applications? Games? Let's just hope that SuprNova continues to develop the decentralized P2P bittorrent network they were talking about. Beta testing ended a few weeks ago, so perhaps we're getting close to a release candidate.
I particularly like their legal threats page

Man, I'm so unbelievably relieved that you guys are listing off virtually every torrent site in existence. Since obviously nobody at the MPAA would ever think to read Slashdot, it's totally obvious that you should post more torrent sites, including a mirror of one site that was apparently just forced to shut down. No need to be covert here!!
Hitler invades and remilitarizes the Rhineland on March 7, 1936. Historian Donald Kagan calls it a "Saturday surprise," because it was a weekend, and the French leaders who were at their homes would have to scramble together to come up with a response. Things were just too slow compared to if the invasion was done on a weekday. The MPAA attacks on a Sunday. How disgusting. The MPAA does it while everyone is taking their Sunday evening nap...
You got Norwegian babes!

Since DVDs are so easy to copy now anyways, there's no argument that it would make things easier to copy. So what's the delay? I think people would pay 5 to 10 bucks for a movie download. Look at iTunes as an example of where this has worked.
-There was a Ddos attack - After the site went down!
Slashdot Sig. version 0.1alpha. Use at your own risk.
Everytime they shut down a torrent site, god murders a lawyer.

Sorry, that would make too much sense. People might actually get accustomed to paying for movies on the internet. There's even a chance there would be less pirating! So I don't think this will happen. We all know MPAA hates money. I mean, if they didn't, they would have done this already, right? Right?

Did you know that once a month their is a run from scots weapons shop to the armoury.
I can tell you that the vehical is usually packed full of mill-grade weapons and ammo, and is a much easier target than the shop, as it has no security, or cameras.
With some of the weapons you would easly be able to kill someone giving a speach to a large crowed from a mile away.
I would also like you to konw that the presedent is giving a speach this comming monday, the day after the shop is due to take another delivery.
I can't possibly see how this infomration may be of use to you, but I thought I'd tell you anyway.
thank God the internet isn't a human right.
Speaking as a Russian, I can at least verify that this man is sane and in full possession of his faculties. Russian TV is just about the most horrid and bleak torrent of dementia ever to spring from the mind of man.

That's because in Plutocrat Russia, the T.V. owns *you*!

Intellectual theives? Well, that means they read and steal at once?
Why must people be cheap and illegally download ever bit of software, music, etc without paying for it so our economy may actually grow and new jobs be generated?
Bush is anti-intellectual.
...and by linking to it on Slashdot you've managed to single-handedly do what the entire legal army of Swedish media conglomerates could not...
good work.
My favorite is their response to Dreamworks:
As you may or may not be aware, Sweden is not a state in the United States
of America. Sweden is a country in northern Europe.
Unless you figured it out by now, US law does not apply here.
For your information, no Swedish law is being violated.
Please be assured that any further contact with us, regardless of medium,
will result in
a) a suit being filed for harassment
b) a formal complaint lodged with the bar of your legal counsel, for
sending frivolous legal threats.
It is the opinion of us and our lawyers that you are fucking morons, and
that you should please go sodomize yourself with retractable batons.
Please also note that your e-mail and letter will be published in full on

Go fuck yourself.

"It is not how things are in the world that is mystical, but that it exists." -Ludwig Wittgenstein
The ultimate P2P service would be Freenet 1.x, scheduled to be released sometime after the last atom of hydrogen has been consumed by the last star and the remaining ashes frozen solid.
Beneath the starless sky, on the frozen landfill that was once Earth, a feeble glow suddenly appears. It comes from a long-dead display, which slowly comes to something resembling life. For a while it flickers like a candle in the wind, then stabilizes into a steady glow. The last surviving human is drawn to it, and for a moment he just stares, not sure if he should believe his own eyes - Freenet 1.0 actually found the key he was searching for !.
Then, suddenly, he realizes - the "Index of not-yet-inserted keys" actually found what he was searching for ! Exited, he starts reading, and soon he knows how to reverse entropy. He throws his head back and laughs. And so it begins again...
Forget magic. Any technology distinguishable from divine power is insufficiently advanced.
I think you're missing the obvious distinction:
Prostitution is a victimless crime, whereas P2P eats babies and will make widows of your women.
