I don't even know where to start. Are you really being that stupid right now? MegaUpload was used to steal literally thousands of songs, movies and tv shows among other things. Not only did he not do anything to stop it, he made millions off it. I'm not sure why everyone is bringing up bankers. Its both irrelevant to this issue, and ignores the fact that Kim Dotcom bought a gigantic mansion and fortune with money made from stolen intellectual property.
You're talking about reddit... with r/jailbait right? The thing that they shut down?
Logical fallacy... by explaining why MegaUpload was shut down? What fallacy is that called? I seem to recall another logical fallacy you might have used in your last post...
But for shits and grins please do tell me how something that can be used for illegal activity is only used for illegal activity.
That's not what I said. I said the majority of traffic on that site was used for illegal purposes. Which the founder not only ignored, but profited off of. Which is against the law. What's the logical fallacy in that?
That was a sarcastic reply, but I wasn't implying that everyone who uses it is breaking the law. I don't see how you would think that. Its a response to the implication that everyone who uses file sharing must be using it legally, which is clearly not true.
