Forum Post: The Real Reason for all the Streaming TV Link Spam...

Hey all,

Just a thought, but, I suspect that the real reason behind the streaming TV link spam has to do with the pending SOPA legislation. SOPA (the Stop Online Piracy Act) is intended to allow copyright holders, and government agencies to block url's which link to copyrighted material. By spamming the forum with such links, not only do the offenders throw up a wall of bullshit that curtails serious discussion in the short term, but they also set the stage for the government to block this url once SOPA becomes law.

Insidious really.

Insidious. Makes perfect sense.

This is the liberty that libertarians defend. The liberty to fuck with others by any underhanded means.

That, or just kill them. If you can afford a hitman on the free market, that is. Ahhh the Utopia of the Libertarians.

Gotta love the free market !!! I just ignore it, like a commercial. Why can't the moderators just block there accounts ? Between all the Pallbearers and the lunatics there is hardly a conversation any ways. But, it's fun to debate the libertarians. I hang on hoping that this will turn into something, but..

Traffic on this forum follows. I seriously doubt this small amount of daily traffic is worth any hacker or govt agency's time. It is apparently not even worth the time of OWS.

It certainly will if nothing is done about the link-spamming.

It's wearisome to envision someone with more baggage than you.

The assholes running OWS ( leaders ) " LASN KALLE ",.. are getting what they deserve. You think this site is getting hit for being a COINTEPRO operation. You should see what their doing to adbusters.com and godaddy.com.

The summary here is if you fuck with people, they fuck back.

Tap's would be ideal, SEIU brought criminals to the OWS tent to begin with, that's why now this forum is 99% jerk-offs, because there were no decent people to begin with, and now its 100% real OWS assholes like Lasn Kalle, the leader/own of OWS ( 501c3&domain).
