Hope Gene Simmons wins. Stealing songs is a dick move. I might not have as many songs on my iPod as others, but at least I did it the right way.
I think that is just cruel not fair. One guy downloading songs getting sued for a million is not justice it is just wrong. The punishment must fit the crime and that is not justice in any shape or form. To threaten rape on people who download music is kinda sick.BigEaZyE said:
The first experiance I had with anon was actually pretty positive. Still, I have also heard of the many times they have taken things to far. So, really do not care at all about what takes place here.
Scientology still exists, they weren't "destroyed" as was the original threat? Though, the lulz had at the protests was awesomenessEl Gostro said:
Wait a minute, Gene makes all his money of merchandise, not actual music. You can't download a Kiss Kasket.
Sorry Gene, I don't think you have a dog in this fight.

But as far this whole thing goes: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I'll say this right now, I fucking LOVE Anonymous. While not exactly a /b/tard, (I'm more of a fa/tg/uy.) I do keep track of everything the asshole of the internet does, and I have to say, I approve of most, if not all of their 'conflicts' and projects. A lot of people who provoke them have it coming, and to provoke them on purpose to retaliate to them is usually dealt with by goatse spam.
And guys, I can tell you.
I think goatse spam beats...just about anything.
EDIT: Keep in mind they already may have landed Gene in trouble with his family life. They found a video of him cheating on his girl. All Gene has done is 'found' a few people. ...He must have back-traced them.

First, BigEaZyE, your point is an excellent one (u da man!)
Second, JeanLuc761, ur point is a widely shared but slighty missinformed opinion (really trying not to put u down or anything of the sort)
most people seem to be under the impression that the lawsuits or jailtime are a response to the monitary amount or quantity of songs pirated, truth is is has nothing to do with the worth of the songs but the charge of "copywrite infringment" (a criminal charge where million dollar fines and jail time ARE appropriate sentencing), your not being charged with a 99cent internet theft your charged with violating a contracted term of intellectual property,
but you have a bunch of 15-28 year olds with not only an incomplete understanting of law but also a user friendly method of pirating, but tools that allow folks to commit a crime more easily doesn't and shouldn't make the sentencing any less severe, when handguns were invernted the sentencing for a murder charge wasn't lessened just because the crime became easier to commit (and no, im not saying piracy is the same as murder, im just using murder-law as a way to illustrate my point, piracy is not murder)[/quote]
So your blowing this out of proportion but your not...ok

Meh. I hope Anon wins, but at least this might be entertaining. I don't agree with Mr. Simmons opinion on the matter, but in an attempt to not get banned all I'll say is that he better not get overconfident when dealing with the spawn of the internet.
he is an ass however. Let me illustrate.cobrausn said:
Everyone from Marxists to libererals agree that downloading music and such is a preferable choicefor the user and the enviorment! Hey, Gene, I download music, sue me. I also bougth 4 kiss LP's for my collection and heckif they where cheap. I go both ways when it comes to how I get my music and I am proud of it!
"...there's no denying that Gene Simmons is an outsized, outspoken personality"
If by that you mean he's a massive dick, then yes.

Lets not forget to the price of going to a concert!Renamedsin said:he is an ass however. Let me illustrate.cobrausn said:
