Maybe you guys should consider this a sign that you have to grow up and start paying for things like the rest of us.

Nice try mr FBI, thankfully I don't live in the US and I have a get out of jail free card.

I get that Murrica is trying to block piracy in the US, since its illegal there. But did they have to block the site to Europe too? Especially since its a Slav site.
Dont these faggots have better shit to do? Like arrest child rapists or something?
Matthew Gonzalez
There's no way they'll spend all that time, money and manpower going after downloaders. The only people who need to worry are the uploaders. And, honestly, even they are probably safe.

if the FBI really wanted to they could acquire that without seizing kickass, no one is going to waste time going after millions of downloaders
the worst that will happen is maybe a threatening letter from your ISP, who won't do anything because they want your business

LOL, yes I'll do that when the companies and the rich start paying their share instead of hiding their money in tax heavens. 'Rest of us' seriously ?
Every time you pirate means less money in the pockets of the greedy jews, pirating = good.
And of course, if we look at it from a pure economic scope, it's not as if the money not spent on movies and tv shows disappears, it's instead spent on things that can't be pirated, and which in turn typically employs a lot more people than movies and tv show production, so it's a good thing all around.
Thus, pirate more!

I doubt it. YouTube will probably just delete your videos and, possibly, your account. Lawsuits are expensive and a pain in the ass. It's easier to just scare people.

Jokes on you. I just used KAT for Bailey Jay and promptly deleted the videos after I saw what a fucking fat piece of shit he became.
Seriously, how do you go from perfection to throwing it all away? How can someone like Sarina still look good while the majority look like fat assholes? Do they not care about trying their best to look like a sissy bitch?
Fuck these trannies. Apply yourself.
Nathaniel Long
Are you saying we need a final solution to the Jewish problem?
Noah Lewis
Yep. At least filim and TV production is unionized. If you think about it, something like Youtube probably pays the majority of their content producers close to nothing.
Politics aside, portraying piracy as some sort of blow to the elites is misguided at best.

Lucas Turner
Christ you're right. How could everything go so wrong?
Oh well. At least there's Asian Alison.
Brody King
I used to think pirating was the reason Hollywood makes so many unnecessary remakes and dumb superhero movies. But the real reason is because the rest of the world gobbles that shit up. All those foreign countries that are supposedly smarter than America and more sophisticated than America are actually just full of plebs.

There's nothing more cucky than this goycuck statement. The jews will keep making their propaganda pieces, if only to push to ideas.
That's why buyfags are doing, paying for propaganda.
Isaiah Miller
It's both. It's brand security and it exports well.
Movies are no longer about storytelling or plot, they're about spectacle. You see more and more designed for 3D, IMAX and eventually 4dx.
It's gonna wind up part film part amusement park ride.

Jason Peterson
>maybe if I give them money they'll care about me
Cuck, it's too late for that. They control too much of the market for it even matter. There's literally no point in paying for anything anymore, just steal as long as you can.
Ryder Cox
And now actually have China telling us what we can and cannot put in our movies. Pretty soon, all of our American movies will be Chinese movies. Have you seen Chinese movies? They're awful!
Benjamin Diaz

Dominic Barnes
>Dipshit, it means eventually there will be no more filom & tv, or what there is will be of increasingly limited scope and quality.
LOL, if anything, not being able to peddle big budget shite and still make a good profit will actually be BETTER for the movie and tv industry.
Seriously, of all the new shows this year, the only thing remotely entertaining was a 80's horror pastiche, and it's not as if it was that great, just that by being not absolute shit it stood out.
Best case scenario, the jewish strangehold on media will crumble, and we will see other voices out there, and who knows, perhaps some new fucking ideas.
Evan Murphy
Except that this mostly affects video games and nothing more. You can still watch TV/movies/porn (and listen to music) via streaming which isn't even illegal.
Scratch that, since it doesn't affect video games either. Because kat isn't the only torrent site. Companies need to realize that piracy is a platform issue, and instead of trying to chop the hydras head off they should focus on improving their platform and accessibility
Noah Morris
I mean, that's the pragmatic approach.
Jayden Jackson

Kevin Cruz
There is no 'they' poltard. And typically in business paying for what you consume is the only reason a producer would care about you.
But you're right in that it doesn't matter. Technology changed the distribution model, and there is no going back to the old way.
Cameron Torres
You fell into the lie that piracy makes companies loose money, in reality banning piracy would only show the world how little piracy actually affects sales.
>But the real reason is because the rest of the world gobbles that shit up Because the rest of the world treat movies differently. We don't take dumb American movies seriously, don't expect them to be good and go to the movies for the social experience.
Owen Martin

They cant improve it because of DRM. Piracy will always be more convenient.

Noah Garcia
Too bad the good HK directors have been sucking ever since they went to the mainland.
Take Tsu Hark for instance. Made Once Upon a Time in China, which made Jet Li a star and the movie remains well received even today. Fast forward decades late, he makes Flying Swords of Dragon Gate, again with Jet Li. Pretty much another wuxia film like he's done before, except this time he has to fuck it up with shitty CGs when back in HK, he's been doing pretty good job with props and practical effects.
>Have you seen Chinese movies? They're awful! Still better than chink TV series. >100+ war drama about killing filthy nips >100+ remakes of the same few wuxia novels (also with shitty CGs when HK had no problem doing a better job with props) Even Hollywood didn't re-adapt the same few works that many times.

According to my private tracker group the number of warrants served so far:
Baltimore: 250+ Annapolis: 244 Providence: 311 (1/3 Brown and RISD students) Boston proper: 400+ Boston suburbs (newton, etc): 125
they started raiding on the east coast last night around 3am. Likely going to serve other warrants throughout the day and into the night.
They are confiscating all computers and hard drives on machines associated with the IP. The warrant is made out to the person who owns the cable bill but they will take all devices at the residence.

There's still a lot of room for improvements. Most video game pirates are Russians, because Anglo companies can't be arsed to add subtitles to their games. Regional pricing also screws them over.
Companies like EA simultaneously elevate their Indian prices to the same level than that in the West (so that Indians need to decide whether to pay rent or buy a video game) and then wonder why piracy exists.
In movies and tv, companies need to realize that we live in an on-demand culture. Simply, there is no valid reason to not allow Europeans to buy your show legally. And there is no valid reason to delay the show for some parts of the world.
HBO simultaneously doesn't allow Spanish people to access Game of Thrones legally and wonders why the show is the most pirated of all time.
