In fairness to Balrin, anon is more famously know for using the word than you are, and you show a disliking for the anonymous. So yeah, it is ironic.Legion said:
Gene Simmons Declares War on Anonymous

Wait, are we talking about just random anonymous internet dwellers, or anon from 4chan? I can see this going either way with the former, but if Gene is up against /b/, he's fucked.
Finally someone has declared war on Anon outside of their bedroom and actually might give a good fight. Although he mentioned the FBI and snagging a few "adventurous kids". After all who have gone before him, those words just sound hollow.
I'll just lurk in the corner with the popcorn.

So, the main thing I grasped from this is that Simmons actually had the guts to be a copyright jerk.
That's nice, Gene. Especially after your son has been accused of stealing the fuck out of Bleach in his manga, oh, half a year ago.
I'll be definitely rooting for Anon this time.

I like how Anonymous are against these people who try and rule through fear and stopping people from speaking out. It's really noble how they take down websites with people trying to express their opinion on them even though that opinion is clearly stupid to anyone with half a brain cell.

Simmons will fail, but I think he'll do at least some damage to Anonymous. If what he says about tracking down a few people is true, it'll be loltastic, but it's like fighting a swarm of bees. Except they're angry internet bees. And there's no honey.

huh.....i don't know who to root for....i like anonymous because they helped cached that puppy throwing girl...but Gene Simmons was in KISS...well i never really listened to kiss so my votes for anon.
He's a dick for saying that he wants people to lose their homes, lose their lives and put them in jail for downloading a song that's worth $0.99BigEaZyE said:
True, but as I pointed out, I borrowed it, I am not claiming originality. I also like it for reasons that are completely different from theirs (based upon their attitude and actions that is).EightGaugeHippo said:
Their ideal seems to be "We are many and you don't know us, so don't mess with us". Which to me, is just plain cowardice. Old school bullying where they can't do it alone or if they risk any consequences.
If they are that stupid to risk going to jail for that then that's their problem not his.JeanLuc761 said:
All I should say is:
TROLOLOLOL.
But really, Gene Simmons was acting like the dick, the music industry is full of dicks and have done horrible things to people, ruined lives. I think this is one of the better things done by /b/. Some day, I hope the Music Industry goes down.

Well, nice knowing you Gene Simmons, you don't have much of a chance against Anonymous.
I'm not sure who is right here, yes people should be punished for breaking the law, but the punishment should fit the crime. What Simmons is suggesting takes the cake, spews it up and eats it again.

"Make sure your brand is protected, be litigious, sue anybody - take their homes, their cars, don't let anybody cross that line," he said at the time. "The music industry was asleep at the wheel and didn't have the balls to go and sue every fresh-faced, freckle-faced college kid who downloaded a clip, so now we're left with hundreds of people without jobs."BigEaZyE said:
that sounds like a pretty big dick to me
I'm not sure who I hate more, Simmons for wanting to sue everyone, and basically ruin their lives because he made a million less than he wanted too? Or anon for being a giant rabies mob of hackers who take offense to everything?
Oh well should be interesting.
