Thank you for sharing your enlightened opinion with us.
Oh god, it's really creepy when he actually talks about something not happy and funny.
He should stick with reviewing Happy Meal toys that look like dicks.
Thank god I didn't use cnet before.
Im going to point out that in the Limewire case the woman was done for the uploading and distributing of the songs, not the downloading of them.
However he does bring up a very valid point and if used it'd be pretty interesting to see where this could all go.
Oh, him. I remember this guy. I do remember he did a video about Viacom when it first started copying videos to its websites. He makes good arguments.
This is actually really fucked up and SOPA will pass anyways

It sure will with that attitude.

And do you really think that our Congress represents our people? It's pretty scary that Democrats and Republicans want to get this thing passed as fast as possible, they won't stop and listen to the people they represent (aka do their fucking job). You're from Italy you should know about corrupt governments.
Hey, it's the toy guy with all the cool shit in the warehouse
tbh i can see this ending up being removed for some bullshit reason
he looks so happy

I doubt it. He's done all sorts of videos like this one. And he's a Youtube partner.
Giant corporations giving out and advertising tools for piracy, creating giant traffic in copyrighted materials to use it as an excuse to push a law that would allow them to control the internet. Wow... what a nice conspiracy you have there going on.

Politicians represent those with money i.e. corporations. There is no democracy, sorry. It's all smoke.
Isn't JeepersMedia the one who posts videos of crappy toys?
I don't see why it matters. You could say the same about actors in politics.
I'm actually pretty happy to see Mike again. He hasn't made a video in a long time.
He do these very informed videos time to time.
This is crazy interesting to.
So, I decided I'm going to double-check as much of the information he gives as I can. I started with CNet.
For starters, [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNET]CNet[/url] is owned by [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_Interactive]CBS Interactive[/url], which is a division of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_Corporation]CBS Corporation[/url]. Don't believe the Wikipedia? Then look at [url=http://www.cnet.com/]CNet's homepage[/url] - particularly at the very bottom, the "About CBS Interactive" under the "More" column.
Now, a fun fact about CBS Corporation. Originally founded as Viacom, the corporation [url=http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/01/03/business/main1176111.shtml]split into two companies[/url] in 2006: CBS Corporation, and Viacom. The majority of what pre-2006 Viacom used to be became the company now known as CBS Corporation, and what we know to be post-2006 Viacom is actually a separate company, that split off from what became CBS; they simply decided to keep the name of the original company (Viacom).
Therefore, CNet is [b]not[/b] owned by Viacom. They [b]were[/b] owned by Viacom during the times that this guy is talking about, but in 2006, as I said, the corporation split, and a majority of the ownerships the old Viacom had, [b]including CNet[/b], went to CBS.
Ergo, CNet is [b]actually[/b] owned by CBS. [b]Not[/b] Viacom.
I have no idea what CBS's stance on SOPA is, and I have no idea if this makes any actual difference, but I just thought you guys would like to know. I may continue digging into this, if anyone actually cares about fact-checking before blindly believing.

I would also like to point out that you can still download things such as [url=http://download.cnet.com/DRM-Removal/3000-2140_4-10915841.html]BluRay DRM Removal (free trial, full program is $20)[/url] and [url=http://download.cnet.com/uTorrent/3000-2196_4-10528327.html]uTorrent[/url] off of CNet. It also seems that CBS smarted up and added an explicit "We don't condone, support, or encourage using uTorrent to violate copyright law, and doing so makes you a bad person" note to the top of the page. However, whether or not they used to do this, I don't know. I don't feel like checking right now.
The part about shipping that one guy from England to here made me sad.
And a week later this guy was erased from history.
I just realized his face has a lot of avatar material.
Man, if this thing passes I'm just going to sit back and laugh my ass off at the humongous shitstorm of collateral damage. Especially when the people who either supported or remained apathetic flip shit over Youtube and Facebook.
Wow, Dianne Feinstein is sponsoring PROTECT-IP.
time to send an angry letter.

But you won't see any of it unless you pay.
If this video gets highlighted to the "all high and mighty", Viacom, Disney and a few more who support SOPA will have to answer to some, certain things.
here's an easier way just overthrow your government
Whats with people trying to control the internet all of a sudden?

If SOPA passes the little faith I have left in humanity will be gone.
