He stole it almost from multiple people. He got paid to make it (signed docs and all). And then he stole it from others. So he failed to deliver a product he stole.
That and he is seriously a complete douchebag and has no feelings of pity or regret over his actions. You can read some of his logs. Hell the guy apparently used his powers of running facebook to break into individual accounts. Scary dude.
"Which is Liberty and Freedom, and THAT is what the Tea Party is about."
Then they are all retarded. How do you have more freedom by not having things like universal healthcare, unions and other communist things? With public roads you have the freedom to travel. With public fire/health/police you lessen the likelihood that your freedoms will be taken from you. With unions and government restrictions/regulations on corporations you get freedom of choice of workplace and safety (less likelihood of loss of freedom). With social programs and things that help the poor you are protected from the HUGE loss of freedoms that occurs if you are starving to death without assistance.
With absolute capitalism; Corporations have MORE freedoms. And individuals have less. They have the freedom to do many horrible thing with take away individual freedom. They could implement economic slavery. If economic slavery isn't a loss of human freedom I don't know what more I can say.
Car Analogy:
Most people don't have GPS in their car (yet). That doesn't mean that GPS is bad, or that not having GPS is better. The car they are in now didn't come with GPS and not everyone is going to get an after market upgrade to add it. But probably when people buy new cars they'll come with GPS and its unlikely anyone is going to rip the things out.
If the donation amount was $10 on average (amongst the few that actually donate). And running/. probably doesn't cost more than $4000. And there are prolly about 70-90k active users on/. That means that.5% of people have to donate, which doesn't seem too unreasonable. Anything past that is income for taco.
The 'drake equation' for people who want to guess their own figures:
[Cost to run/.] = [% of people that need to donate] * [number of users on/.] * [Avg donation amount]
Input: "We've seen how free market ideology works in the real world where there are no scruples and money makes the rules and if you don't have money your voice doesn't matter. We're already in an era of corporate dictatorship of policy to such an insidious degree."

'Lets privatize schools! That will make corporations less powerful.'
I think they should combine the two ideas. Deluge them 1000s of bomb threats. How could they react to it? It isn't violent. It simply wastes a ton of their time and money. And if they decide to stay then they will likely lose a LOT of employees. Many people will simply leave if they aren't comfortable living under constant threat (even if there is no real danger). At the least it will make them uncomfortable.
Personally, I don't think that bomb threats to the RIAA in general is a good idea. But if they want to stress out the guys at the top that are pushing all this stuff? I honestly don't care if they have to live life fearfully. So long as no anontard thinks its a good idea to actually bomb someone (Sorry/. for not using weasel words)
Corporations are too powerful and our government gets controlled by them. To counteract this we should allow companies to become more powerful, less restricted and take powers away from the government, reel it in.
Almost as good as the teapartiers. "Can you believe the government is in so much debt??? Obama needs to cut taxes across the board NOW!"
Also, I've got terrible memory (diagnosed) but I can still manage 3~5 letters....
Your goatse link also made me think... there should be a FF addon that will automatically download the meta-tags / w/e from url shorteners. That way the mouse-over for the url will be to the eventual site. It'd make clicking url shorteners less worrisome. (I don't think THAT many forms of url redirection are being implemented so it needn't be that complex)
"The rise in popularity of smart phones powered by Google's Android operating system for smart phones has been accompanied by an increase in attacks targeting these devices."
In other news, the rise in people having unprotected sex resulted in a rise in pregnancies.
And a rise in the number of boaters has increased the number of boating accidents.

Top roller coasters do about 150km/h (so 1/4speed). And the windows in bullet trains don't open. Your question was just as ridiculous as asking if you can open the windows and stick your arms out of an intercontinental jet.
You could give them commercial reproduction rights so they could lease to theaters but nothing else. Music could be the same, charge to stick music in commercials / w/e. For art charge to put it in publications. Any personal/free use doesn't get charged.
"..he's as bad as the leaders he's trying to expose.."
Came off a bit trollish maybe?
Rest was interesting though./. mods just being oversensitive I guess. Though maybe you pissed off some lefty in another thread that is exacting unjust revenge. But then why they'd go for overrated as opposed to troll I don't know. Could also be the sig, It reads like spam... seriously, I wouldn't open an e-mail with that title. The all caps are sorta sad too.
I guess what I'm saying is thanks for the link to the interview.
Wiki leaks reported that they have a copy. And they'll prolly be putting up. But I imagine they don't want to piss off the MAFIAA, fucking scary group.

I meant server fees per month. But my guess doesn't matter a whole lot. Stick in your own variables... Thats why i put it that way.

Sub in w/e you want to guess at and solve.
That is no excuse for poor fashion!
I'm not worried really. I'm pretty short when it comes to people. Once all the basketball players die I'll start to be concerned.
What?! How could you let a fracking toaster into the server room?

Completely 100% not based in reality.
TY. Really I should just assume that all my ideas are already done. (wow, I think I got modded redundant for a post I made 29minutes before yours)
I'd mod you down if I hadn't posted yet, my bad.

Heh, you should read the law more. That isn't how the states works.

You got that backwards i think.
