Farrell is the asshole coming on here our of nowhere and calling me a thief and trying to disparage all the things I've ever done and proud of. I suppose he's trying to make himself feel better. Doesn't matter to me.
I said earlier how I felt about it...before he started attacking me personally and trying to justify his own bullshit.
But like y'all pointed out...it just "Robbie-ized" the thread and takes the attention off the subject matter. Which is exactly what it's supposed to do I guess.

I have no interest in your argument - but I too am constantly amazed how the tide has turned.
The apologists for piracy seem to be the most vociferous. Whenever anyone tries to do anything about piracy you get Dame wittering on about how it will never stop it so you should not try, and now its ok for Manwin et al to make millions form piracy because everyone has done something dishonest at least once in their lives. It really is such bullshit.
A) It is not ok for me to come into your house and steal everything you have because you once used a pirated piece of software. Not legally or morally.
B) Not acting against piracy because it wont cure the world of copyright infringement is not an argument. Murder was not eliminated by creating laws to punish murderers. This is a truly ridiculous argument.
C) Fabian leaves Manwin to a reported large payout. It does not mean he was a creative genius that invented technologies and processes that opened new markets and changed the way adult services are monetized. The reality is he headed up an enterprise that was already working the DMCA loop whole on an industrial scale before he took over. Under his leadership he failed in his attempt to legitimize the company, and his ego became his downfall.
Lets get things into perspective.
