23,322 Bittorrent users are being sued for downloading the worst movie...
Osmo:
Wondering if users who are being sued contain foreigners. Like the poor arab whos country has been invaded then getting extorted by the same country for everything he's got.
Burkingam:
If you reject intellectual property, the all Piracy=thievery argument fall appart. The way I see it, the moment you start distributing an idea or an artwork, it no longuer belong to you. It's now part of the general culture.
AceD:
i downloaded that film, was ok...am assuming the people been sued where all on a public tracker though?

I like the Ip Man movies. Watched this at a friend's house I hope he didn't get this off a public tracker.
