*watches her credibility circle the drain before disappearing*

Whelp, that was entertaining!

*waits for lawsuits against her by the various copyright hounds*
Doubt that will happen, she admitted to no specific infringement, so no copyright holder can know without reasonable doubt that she infringed on their copyrights.

But I will say, the copyright brigade would LOVE to make an example of her. Everyday people who view the serial torrenters as filthy, goodfernothin thieves, but pirate every once in a while for convenience, would be scared shitless if she were tarred and feather. So yeah, maybe you're right.

On one hand: Yes, piracy is bad.

On the other hand: If you're known to stand against piracy, having that much pirated material is naturally gonna make you look bad.

On an unrelated note: Her son must seriously hate her. This is gonna make Christmas dinner a little awkward...
If I had to guess, he probably snapped after all this time of her complaining about piracy.

OT: This, now this is hilarious. While I don't doubt her son had something to do with all that music, 1800 is a huge number and I doubt he did it all. Hell he probably showed his mom how to do it.

This comes on the heels of the story about the anti-gun senator who shot an intruder in his home recently. All people are hypocrites, it seems.

The mouth of the righteous equally guilty shall mediate judgement embarrassing hypocrisy.

Guess irony and satire isn't one of her literary forces.

Oh that's well funny there son. Destroy your mums credibility and damage her career. Although I'm glad she was found out as a hypocrite that is no way for a son to act.

Little ****.

Her credibility was shot the moment she admitted about the knock-off handbags and lied about "Losing half a million kroner". Her son just pointed out that mommy shouldn't lie. Besides, I hardly think her career is damaged, she writes childrens books; kids don't pay attention to this crap.

Good on her son, he held his mother to the same morals that she probably held him to.

Sorry but no one is above the law, especially not the law of hypocrisy (hyperbole). I love some of my family but I'd have no qualms about throwing them under the bus if they did something stupidly hypocritical or illegal. Are you going to tell me I'm lacking in morals for doing the right thing?

Well I disagree you just don't treat the women who raised you and paid for you since birth like this. Regardless of what it did the kid is a shit ungrateful spoilt brat he should be fucking spanked for eternity for this.
Also, you owe nothing to your parents for raising you. They chose to have children and they have to take care of you. It is their job and responsibility. (Which should be obvious due to the fact it's illegal not to take care of your kids)

"I can not stand the thought of someone stealing something,"
Of mine.

"I have figured out that I've lost half a million kroner ($72,500) on piracy of my books, maybe more."
But stealing other peoples stuff is okay because it saves me money!

Her argument is so flawed and hypocritical its unbelievable. If she ever dares to open her mouth on the subject again then her son will have to take the next step up and slap her in the face in the middle of the interview.

HA! I knew it, just goes to show you, digital piracy is deeply sewn into modern society. Even the ones who speak against it are not immune. It's a fact of life, you canoot stop it.

The one time Norway makes it to the Escapist news, and then it's about a fucking hypocrite :(

Nevertheless, the ***** got owned!

Hypocrite, just like the rest of the pirate brow-beaters.
Not all of us, but thanks for the generalization.

On topic...well, way to make the rest of us look bad. Thanks, author I've never heard of. Face, meet palm.

How disgustingly hypocritical. It may be commonplace to download music instead of paying for it, but you'd hardly expect that thing from someone who is staunchly against piracy. I guess she only cares about it when it takes money out of her pocket.

No I'm saying you lack respect and you clearly don't deserve the family you have been given if you have no qualms about throwing your family under a bus.

Again all your showing me if you lack any respect for your parents which is incredibly wrong.
You're assuming based on a parent being a parent that they ever gave you respect at all. Which all parents don't. Lacking respect is only bad if they deserved respect. As for the bus, well, if their moral or illegal mistake could cost me my reputation or my freedom, why should I not throw them under it? I'm not going to have my character assassinated all because of some "respect" that I apparently owe them which prevented me from going to the authorities.

By her own son no less. Blood is thicker than water, but apparently even blood is less dense than irony.
