After many appeals from the entertainment industry, many goverments across the world are gonna meet together at the UN to discuss ways of stopping Movie Pirates (nothing else yet) . its assumed theyre gonna put up fake movie downloads riddled with viruses. Its coming together at the UN in a few months, I forgot which Organization though |

That doesn't sounds remotely legal.
Then again, that hasn't stopped the government before. |

...This won't accomplish anything.
It'll just slightly increase the virus ratio in torrents and such.
People almost always check downloads after they're done, it's too risky otherwise. |

The UN is useless. They don't really do anything. Their purpose for existing is unknown to me. Did you know you can punch someone in the UN, then as soon as you leave the building, you're immune? It's true. |

I'd like to see them try, then face the lawsuits, outcry, and huge "Thank You" cards from virus scanner labs whilst everyone laughs at them.
If I remember correctly, they already cockblocked the governmental trojan in Germany, and anyway it's against our constitution. Violation of private space and uploading of illegal software much ? |

It's probably just a lie to get us too scared to do it. It's just like my school's stupid ass abstinence only program!:
Show us a bunch of nasty pictures of nasty STIs, tell us nothing about condoms, don't even talk about pregnancy, tell us the only way to "do it" safely is to not "do it" at all, and hope that they scared us out of it.
And now I will go start a topic about this. |

This is really redundant. I'm gonna admit here, that I'm a pretty big pirate. I always check my stuff that I download immediately with an antivirus, or two, or five. If it comes up positive, then I'd delete it.
Now, I also bet you that a lot of other pirates do this as well. Maybe not to the extent of five antiviruses, but whatever. |

That's... A bad way to handle it.
Now lets use the MPGT problem solver-500 to fix this. Pick one of the options that you think would be best.
A: Don't crash computers, Instead put in files that get the information so they can file a lawsuit, fine, or if serious enough, jail time. B: Dowload as much shit as you can NOW before it happens, if it happens. C: RIOT! D: Don't be stupid, watch the stuff online E: Move to Japan or somewhere alse F: Bribe G: Blackmail H: Don't be stupid, don't dowload your torrent files from the governents myspace page I: Kill them all J: All of the above.
I vote A.

Seconded. A is the best choice. Also, D and H. I suppose E would be a possibility as well.
If they go through with this, they'll just be going against their own laws against creating computer viruses and nobody's supposed to be excluded from the law, even them. |
