yeah, about that.... the govt track record is so much better.
Is anyone supposed to get upset because a bunch of sites selling knock off products get shut down? It's funny how slashtards constantly say the government should go after the real "pirates" and yet when they do, as in the case you quoted, you still find something to bitch and moan about.
What is "creative" about making a clone of Pacman? It's funny how often on here people whine about copyright laws stifling creative and yet the things that are being held up as being stifled are clones of other works.
What part of "different art" don't you understand?
Which is irrelevant. One doesn't need to copy the exact art assets to face copyright infringement issues. People like you need to realize that the law doesn't much such hard distinctions and there is no case law to back up your interpretation.
You mean like the New York DA who was going after all those politicians for going out with hookers and was caught himself paying for hookers? Or the "family values" politicians who are caught cheating on their wives, caught with gay lovers, etc? Yeah, if we ignore all of this what you said might actually be true.
Which is some claim that it completely destroys your credit yet Argentina's credit is just fine now and their economy is far stronger after defaulting rather than if they had chosen not to? Basically disproving his entire rant?
That's funny because if it's so bad how do you explain that after Argentina defaulted that it now has the second highest per capita GDP in Latin America?

What about the fact that Wikileaks was violating the TOS of Amazon's services?
Studies have shown that 'knock off' sites actually create more demand for the 'legit' products.
And yet your post is suspiciously absent of even one citation.
And yet, you've not linked a single one.
What, they shut down websites with little oversight
And you have proof that they were selling couterfeit goods due to lack of oversight rather than doing so purposefully, right?
and even shut down legitimate sites?
Such as?
Yeah - who would care about that!
Other than criminals, I can't really tell since you've provided all of zero evidence that any legitimate sites were shut down.
or stupidly high resource usage just for the sake of high resource usage
And you're putting this out as a trait that Java doesn't have? ROFL

So commodore64_love is now posting his Alex Jones rants as an AC?
it can stick too its guns like it did in China
You mean whoring themselves out to the Chinese government for many years before finally doing the right thing?
Given the number of patents passed through in a day
And that number would be?
GCC, which he initially wrote, is used everywhere.
Wrong. GCC was a modification of a previous compiler, Pastel, to compile C code. And when it was rewritten Len Tower did most of the work.
No it wouldn't. The Hurd is the Duke Nukem Forever of kernels because the developers suffer the same issues with delivering as George Broussard did.
Except they don't. Because it's impossible.
Duh? That sound you heard when making this post was the whooshing of the joke over your head.
Because the "middle class" is increasingly becoming closer to the poorer classes than the rich class?

If he suddenly dropped off the face of the earth it would just create a martyr out of him
You mean except for the fact that especially in the US that most people despise him and Wikileaks and would be happy if he was killed?

Because not all people in the world are obsessed with making more money than they can ever spend in their lifetime?
Argentina and Russia seem to be doing okay on being able to borrow money after their defaults.
Did you miss the part of history class where they teach about the huge amounts of anti-Irish sentiment during their last mass migration to the US?
And considering market share the one is Symbian. doing better than all others.
So going from 60+% to just barely 40% in less than 2 years is "doing better"? Symbian's market share is dropping like a rock.
He probably knows he's being filtered by more and more people.
No, this was just kdawson trying to fill his FUD quota for the day. He's a little behind.
