Not irresponsible acts like this, i can assure you.

If there was any arguing, it was on your part only. I honestly dont care if anyone agrees or not. I'm right. Period. If someone is too stupid to realize that, its their problem not mine.

So 2 posts is "too much"? If i try to post a 3rd time i get the delay. I wouldn't call 3 posts in a row too much, and the operators here can take their limit and shove it..

And more tools will arise that will drive people so far underground they will never figure out who is doing what. And the more publicity they get, the more 'regular' people will learn there is free stuff out there.

Lets call it the 'Napster effect'.. (tm)

How is making an honest observation 'name calling'? You sound like a child, so i used the term. Even if you are not in age, you do have the mind of a child.

"dumbass child" would have been name calling. Besides, who was arguing? I was simply stating reality.

And for the record, this 'required time between' posts is ludicrous. Some of us can think faster than that..

Yes. And they know better. They were raised to know the difference between right and wrong and can think on their own.

If you cant control yourself, then its your problem, not the app makers. Perhaps you need to seek professional help for your lack of control/addiction.

Sounds like your parents failed too. And, as far as me calling someone i dont know a 'bad parent', i dont need to know him ( or her ). He clearly gave an example of bad his parenting skills.

Want to try again, child?

It will reach the point that it wont matter what you are saying. If you are hiding your conversations from the Chinese government as a citizen at all, its grounds enough for them to come collect you and imprison you forever. ( or just shoot you and your family on the spot )

Sounds like you dont make a very good parent. Typical to blame others for your incompetency. You ( and many others ) have raised heathen children with no respect. You are the problem, not amazon.

What is next, blame Ford because your kid was able to steal your keys off your dresser and wreck the car while you are sleeping? Or blame the garden center for selling you the rocks your children use to throw at passing cars? Step up and be a parent.

It's not their fault the kid's parents are not responsible.

Apple should not have caved either, but i guess they felt that the 'good press' was worth losing a few bucks.

Most traffic on the internet is legal. As is most traffic on the roads.

Don't like it around here, create your own news service that caters to your country.. I'm sure you can get 10 or 15 users. Don't worry, you wont be missed, coward.

Comcast? AT&T? Someone with deep pockets wants to restrict competition and availability.

No, because they are in effect a 'dumb carrier' of *all* traffic and the user is the one that is liable, while you signed up with something that is known to hide illegal traffic, so both of you are.

Ultimately you are responsible for the traffic that exits your PC. Sure, if you are infected with a virus, you have a potential 'out' but if you *allow* it, then not so much.

The "VW" analogy in the story line, is ludicrous. If you want to use a car analogy; its like letting your friends store gym bags in your trunk while you drive cross country. You didnt ask what was in the bags, but know there could be drugs..
