Hi guys, I just wanted to call out an inappropriate term I’ve seen used sometimes: Civil Disobedience. It’s not just civil disobedience when you pirate something privately, you need to do it publicly and dare the authorities to do something about it.

So an example here would be to set up a massive leech party and advertise it specifically as civil disobedience. Say all manner of things from all manner of copyright holders would be transmitted, and try and get news coverage. That’s civil disobedience.

Just downloading a movie because you want to watch it is not. OK thanks for your time.

    My friend, you seem to be too young to have gone to a leech-n-lan. Those were indeed the days… yarrr…
