LulzSec, Anonymous Reason For PROTECT IP Act, Says RIAA
Dangerous_Minds writes "ZeroPaid is reporting that the RIAA is using the latest activities of hacktivists to bolster its claim that America needs the PROTECT IP Act, the act that would place a layer of censorship on the internet in the U.S."
And expose the sordid details of RIAA exec's child prostitution activities on their Thailand "business trips".
"Flyin' in just a sweet place,
Never been known to fail..."
Why would they target an organization that is helping them towards their goal of making America so unlivable that the people will accept Sharia Law as a lateral move?
It makes perfect sense to me, seeing as how it is a known fact that all members of Anonymous and Lulzsec are under the jurisdiction of U.S. Law.
Obviously anyone here understands that the Protect Act has NOTHING to do with the stupidity that the RIAA is spewing. But let me restate it for those that don't understand. They are using recent events as a False Flag-like excuse. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/False_flag I am not claiming in any way, shape or form that they are responsible for said events. Merely that they are taking advantage of them in this way.

So the logic here is the same as it has been for every rights-compromising measure put forth so far this century; "[name of enemy] is going to cause massive amounts of economic/physical/spiritual damage unless [measure] is undertaken immediately. [measure] will of course restrict your rights, but it's all in the name of protecting something greater than you." Of course, that something invariably reduces to somebody else's profit, which is likely already happening at your expense, so why change the status quo now.

Their child prostitution is right out there leading their marketing pushes. Check out the "teen seen" music sources and Disney Channel fare. 13 year old girls in bustiers?
MAFIAA is _proud_ of their rampant selling of child sex and sexuality to the public. That it is more "child porn" than direct prostitution is the only possible argument.
Innocent people shouldn't be forced to pay for inferior software development.

Why shoot your ally in the battle against liberty?
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
It will treat everyday law abiding citizens as charged criminals under investigation while the people it targets will patch over it in less than a day...
At this point I have trouble weighing out which group is dumber
Where do I sign up for my check, I've produced content! ...Oh I see just for the megacorps then is it?
What Anonymous/LulzSec do (a good percentage of the time) is illegal anyways, yes? Why the crap do we need new laws when what they do is already criminal?

They need to be quicker on their feet to out adapt the world of technology. Counter measures roll out faster than laws countering measures. All it does is create some vicious enemies with long memories. The RIAA needs to STFU and come up with a modern working business model for the digital age. It doesn't take much brain activity to come up with something that could solve this problem, so what the hell is their problem?
Take the Red Pill.
Yeah, because removing an image tag is roughly the same as posting peoples' login information, proprietary source code or a list of email addresses to a porn site and telling people to ridicule anybody they know on the list. Gosh dang kids these days just have no sense of humor.
exactly... look at how Microsoft hides their IP in Ireland to minimise their tax bill... but uses US patent law to enforce it...
