I've just downloaded Debian by torrent and as it benefit society I thought of seeding it. I also got other versions and now I'm wondering what else to share that's beneficial ; I don't consider it's beneficial to encourage proprietary software even if you don't pay for it, just think of the Office / Open Office situation ...

I like software but perhaps there's royalty-free literature or musical projects you know about (on torrent) ?

and "contribute" to your society by seeding them ;D

thou even if you want to contribute, some of them non proprietary still claim they want you to download from their main site. else you fuck their statistics , taking them subvention %

like i think you can get the same court appearance for copying java over a usb key as you would with windows on a cd.

some eula are pretty fucked up if you ask me.

and beware about anything crypto you ship over the borders. read about that ( openbsd covers it on their site ) thou you might already be aware. you cant send cryptographic engine back and forth the us line.

some other country have the same ( like one or two ) law about cyphers/cypher mechanism.

so a version of say openbsd , can NOT be downloaded back from the state , else your commiting a federal offence and feds can claim you . thou we can send them the program ( so importing in the state is legal but not exporting )

its not that much stressed but the bill is there

I'm more interested in morality than legality. What's the chance that I'll get tracked by hosting anything other than pedophile content and "terrorism" propaganda ?

Those embargo are just bargaining chips with other countries and maybe at some point I'll promote their breach. Thanks for the warning though.

Hate to break it to you, but hosting/distributing/providing cryptography to another country IS considered a form of terrorism on the same level as supplying weapons.

see here > [ en.wikipedia.org ]

Magic_Lantern_(software)

i have read the draft of the white papers , and every packet switch will have to carry a log .

if you opened the papers this week you see that this is being legalised , but the systems is "being implanted" since 2001, and before that it was carnivour.

lots of ppl get busted , some only copied a cd , and are turned into media heros to set an example, other , get recruited i suspect.

lol. who knows one day you ppl here will probably see me in a headline just for having reported this :D "guy gets shut up, alas"

i also remember , around 2001 . they asked "computer technicians" to report signs of fraud , pedofilia etc... they would encounter in their clients computers. so what good is this project if you can just poke the log file of the computer itself. pure proof , thats what.

Operation Fastlink
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
This article may need to be updated. Please update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information, and remove this template when finished. Please see the talk page for more information.

Operation FastLink is a coordination of four separate, simultaneous undercover investigations by the FBI, the FBI Cyber Division, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Computer Crimes and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) of the Criminal Division and Interpol. The four different investigations have not been publicly enumerated, but the U.S. Department of Justice has said in at least one press release that "Operation Higher Education" is the largest component, with participation from twelve nations. Mention has also been made of an investigation into pre-release music groups led by FBI agents from the Washington Field Office. As of April 20, 2007, the U.S. Department of Justice states that Operation FastLink has yielded 47 convictions. The raids occurred in similar fashion to those from Operation Buccaneer and Operation Site Down. Other somewhat-related law enforcement actions include Operation Gridlock and Operation D-Elite.

The operation led to the successful busts of nearly 100 individuals involved in illegal copying of copyrighted software (i.e "software piracy"), and alterations thereof, worldwide. There were around 120 total searches executed in 27 states and in 10 foreign countries. Foreign searches were conducted in Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, the Netherlands, Singapore, Sweden as well as Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Among the prolific warez release groups targeted by Fastlink were Fairlight, Kalisto, Echelon, Class,and DEViANCE - all of which specialized in pirating computer and console video games. Recent convictions have included members of music release groups Apocalypse Production Crew and Chromance.
