Turkey Bans Periscope (stockholmcf.org)
stikves writes: According to online reports, a recent court order has banned Periscope across Turkey. The cited reason is the alleged violation of copyrights of a local company named "Periskop." This adds to the list of online services no longer available in Turkey, including Wikipedia, PayPal and WordPress, among others. While access from Turkey to the domain periscope.tv and to the Twitter account "periscopeco" is banned, users can still access Periscope services under the name Scope TR and Twitter account "scopetr." Lawyers from Twitter, Apple and Google requested rejection of the case, "saying it was impossible for a company like Twitter, operating in the U.S., to be aware of the existence of the same brand name in Turkey," reports Stockholm Center for Freedom.
What is Periscope? I am guessing it is a type of food or drink. Anyhow, I am outraged about it.
Lemon curd is quite delicious.
I really wish I could muster up some sympathy for how an ever-increasingly thuggish and authoritarian asshole like Erdogan is doing even more thuggish and authoritarian shit.
But, I can't.
What we need to do is stop coddling his ego that he's a member of the Western democracies, and let him get on with building his theocracy and fuck the hell off.
It'll be just another source of angry Muslims in the world, nobody will even notice.
Erdogan, another regressive disgusting piece of trash that has been freely, wllingly and knowingly democratically elected by the mindless, populist and guillible masses that more and more, in this sort of mini dark ages we're living through, force their collective stupidity on the thinking minority.
I lived in Turkey for two years.
This was planned by the government.
Warren Jeffs is in jail you stupid fuck.

So you are saying, on Slashdot, that if an older man were to become a Mormon you have access to lots of young hot females.
Is this some kind of Slashvertisement?
Turkey has also banned its submarines.
General Relativity: Space-time tells matter where to go; Matter tells space-time what shape to be.
for submarines wanting to transit between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean
The stated reason for the ban makes no sense:
> The term “periscope” had been copyrighted by the local company at the Turkish Patent Institute.
How can one "copyright" a term? I assume they mean trademark? So what? The company can simply change its name for the local Turkish market. That is no excuse for a ban.
I laugh/snorted when i read the headline, thinking Turkey was trying to ban actual periscopes.
Shut the fuck up chris. Nice talking to yourself.
Seriously when you sockpuppet yourself as AC do you really job hope that someone engages your comments?
You're talking to yourself in hopes some passerby will decide to join in on all the fun and talk to you?
Prepare for silent running...
And nothing of value was lost.
Yeah, but what about teh Mooselms?
Twitter, Apple and Google are just lazy and want to be able to do treat trademark law the same way they are already treating tax law. WIPO has an online search where you can easily search for trademark conflicts worldwide. It's a few minutes work to punch in some spelling variants and check that any conflicts that come up are not in similar industries.
Dear Team Creimer,
My name is Dave Fournier and I am director of the Alien Con 2018 affiliate programs.
We still have room for affiliates and we have an even more interesting proposal for you that would bring a lot of attention towards yourself at the Alien Con. Nobody will miss you and imagine the impact on your long tail revenue streams!
Here is the punch; we are looking for someone to impersonate Jabba the Hutt at the Alien Con and we can't think of a better candidate than yourself.
As a signing bonus, you would get all the Alien Con employees used lottery tickets so this will be a win-win for everybody!
Let us know if you are interested please.
I hope to hear from you soon...
Christians and Muslims DON'T Worship the Same God!
I have received quite a few letters recently from Muslims who are insistent that Islam and Christianity worship the same God. If fact, even George W. Bush, a professed "Christian," said the same thing to ABC news correspondent, Charles Gibson...
In an exclusive interview with ABC News' Charles Gibson, Bush said he believes that both Christians and Muslims worship the same God.
"I think we do. We have different routes of getting to the Almighty," Bush said. "But I want you to understand, I want your listeners to understand, I don't get to get decide who goes to heaven. The Almighty God decides who goes to heaven and I am on my personal walk," he said.

Do Muslims and Christians worship the SAME God? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Allah is a fictitious, fabricated, false god from the 9th century ... the moon god (which you will see later in this article). According to www.thetruereligion.org...
For various reasons, many people have come to believe that Muslims worship a different God than Christians and Jews. This is totally false, since "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for "God" - and there is only One God. Let there be no doubt - Muslims worship the God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus - peace be upon them all. -SOURCE
As proof that the above claim is a lie, we need only turn to the Koran itself, The Women, 4.171...
"...believe therefore in Allah and His apostles, and say not, Three. Desist, it is better for you; Allah is only one God; far be It from His glory that He should have a son, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His, and Allah is sufficient for a Protector."
Clearly, the Koran (written about 600 A.D.) DENIES the Son of God, Jesus Christ! The Koran teaches that God has no Son. In contrast, the Word of God, the Bible, declares in John 3:16...
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
1st John 2:22 calls ALL Muslims "LIARS" because they deny that Jesus is the Christ...
"Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son."
According to the Word of God, you are a liar and an ANTI-Christ if you deny the Father AND THE SON. Clearly, the Koran and the Bible are completely INCOMPATIBLE. Islam is a big lie, totally contrary to the Word of God. The Koran is filled with demonic lies! There is no common ground, you either believe the Bible or the Koran. You MUST choose! George W. Bush is wrong. The above quote from www.thetruereligion.org is wrong! The Koran is wrong! Islam is a false religion!
Muslims Deny Jesus' Deity, Crucifixion, and Resurrection!
At www.islamworld.net, the following statement appears in large bold lettering at the top of the home page...
"THERE IS NO DEITY WORTHY OF WORSHIP EXCEPT ALLAH, AND MUHAMMAD IS HIS MESSENGER "
In contrast, the Word of God proclaims in Revelation 4:11...
"Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for t

So what if a net filtering tool developer looks like Poppin Fresh? You must not have paid attention to the energy with which Poppin moves around in some of the Pillsbury commercials.
Land that jump dude
Show me your moves
I can dig up more.
There are plenty of other "acrofatic" characters, and you might be able to catch one of them on someone's P***scope stream.
This is very interesting.
Lawyers from Twitter, Apple and Google requested rejection of the case, "saying it was impossible for a company like Twitter, operating in the U.S., to be aware of the existence of the same brand name in Turkey,"
The same companies do not have problem to litigate in even more obscure countries like Poland ... ... .. where it will be pronounced something like ape-pe-el
using phonetical similarity (in foreign==english) language
domain AP.pl registered 10-20 years ago for company Art Production
it may sound similar but not on local market
Couple years ago they went for grocery store using for several years domain a.pl (a-pe-el)
But oh, we are sooo... big American Company (TM) how can we know ... or how we could find owner of the picture used by us ....
It looks that any domain starting with a is endangered in Poland.
or any product with name starting with "i".
Because there is some corpo iDiot who have to react.
I'm well aware of the scene but it was totally obvious that you were talking to yourself back then just like here.
Since you brought up the subject out of the blue after getting called out here I'd like to point out to any observers that my observation was totally correct.
You need to stop trying to use the internet as a substitute for real human interaction it's not good for you. A normal person would not care if nobody replied to their posts and wouldn't be trying to prime the discussion by talking to themselves. Did you learn this behavior in one of your 'get rich quick with the internet' books?
L:ike everyone else in here I had no clue what Periscope is, so I clicked the link. It's actually Slashdotted!
Old-timers will remember that when Slashdot was at the peak of its popularity and people read the articles before commenting, any linked article would be effectively DDoSed by being accessed by the vast herd of users.
" Cheek & Chong "
Really, Tardolardo?
That's a risk we'll just have to live with, you DNA garbage can.
My Volkswagen is named Turkey, so therefore I no longer acknowledge the infringing body of land claiming to be called Turkey. How about Turkistan?
...once we get to the point where the pace of innovation settles down and a few generations have gotten used to whatever technology we settled for, then they will be all set. In the meantime, not so much...
By assuming that every AC is creimertard, you make yourself extremely obvious, Chris.
" It's been fun seeing you react to random ACs reacting to a well known pre-Internet meme."
Yes. Totally random. And "well known" to who, Chris? People old enough to remember "pre-Internet" memes? Like maybe a 48 year old pachyderm virgin at 1919 Fruitdale?
This has to be the best post I have seen about Islam
Down periscope. Dive! Dive! Dive!
But it's 2018 right now. So, what "People old enough to remember "pre-Internet" memes"?
Well, I know there's a turkey using a keyboard, Chris!
GOBBLELOL!!!
You're such a fat failure.
So someone could act stupid enough to make me believe they're tardchris?
And that would compel me to make an anonymous post? And then someone could laugh at my AC post?
Oh wow. I'd better just let you do whatever you want with no consequences!!!
I'm intellectually checkmated by tardChris.
I never click on tardchris links sorry.
That means you have only 10 years to invest.
If you're lucky we'll have one more bull market to pay off your credit cards and work on your retirement before you're homeless!
An upside-down periscope is the only way you'll see your penis, Thicky!
Creimer, not a "normal" sf&f cunt!
Chris, why did you delete my comment from your great video page?
I already told you about this, go figure why you have no comments on your channel and why people never come back!
You get 4 views a day total for 50+ videos so, not even 0.1 average view by video and you delete comments as they come in you dumb fat bastard.

Tardolardo!
After, creimer repetitively made fun of POTUS on line, he now goes after aliens on his youtube channel.
No target seems big enough for creimer, maybe because nothing matches creimer size.
What a dumb fat bastard!

How_to_defeat_CRE1MER_on_Slashdot!!!
1)Why-are-people-upset-with-him? 2)What-can-I-do? 3)What-are-his-sockpuppets? 4)Who-is-FatCashewsLovesMe? 5)How-to-defeat-his-hustles 6)Why-are-there-dashes?
1)Why-are-people-upset-with-himHe makes frequent low quality posts for two reasons:
Money)BASICALLY: He made thousands of shitty posts and bragged about how much money it made him.
DETAILS: He wants you to follow his referrer links. He wants you to have his referrer cookie, even if he links to something stupid and promises you that its great and you don't buy it. If you shop on some sites later on and buy other things he'll get a portion of what youve spent. He ALSO tries to drive traffic to various blogs and vlogs that so give him money.
KarmaHe believes karma accumulates infinitely. So he makes lots of pointless posts that are not bad enough to mod down but maybe you will mod them up if youre trying to use up your mod points. He was a raging ahole for awhile thinking that he had a warchest of karma armor to protect him.
3)What-can-I-do DOWNMOD you will usually get more mod points, get the oldest posts first you will have plenty of time to get around to the latest ones. Most metamods recognize his name and will not penalize you for modding him down. AC posts by him are usually refilled as well. METAMOD his posts down. REPLY ONLY as ANONYMOUS COWARD and reply only to the most deeply nested comments because this helps hide his posts. Downvote his SUBMISSIONS he has gotten banned for self promotion and also uses submission karma to dodge the mods.
3)What-are-his-sockpuppets Most famous: CRE1MER CDRE1MER, ILoveFatCashews, Anonymous Cashews, The Fat Bastard
4)Who-is-FatCashewsLoveMe Mildly annoying. Sort of funny. He works tirelessly to contain cr@imer. Not me. Not cr@imer
5)How-can-I-avoid-his-hustles DONT FOLLOW HIS LINKS!!!
IF YOU MUST:Use a private tab and never buy anything on the same session. You can get yourself a part of the commission hed get if you use a cashback shopping portal to buy whatever he spams on amazon, Ill let you pick your own. Or if he fools you just close the tab and clear the cookies for that site. There are other sites other than yutube that will let you watch his videos. I dont know if it even matters but I can picture his jowls jiggling at the though of people subverting his 'business model'
6)Why-are-there-dashes (and other weird stuff) I know most will only skim these posts and I want the most important information to sink in at a glance. If there is something of interest hopefully you can find it. I also avoid actually using "CRE1MER'S" name because he may think that he gets something from having it indexed by search engines.
