Leechers are bitches. You at least 1:1 that shit or GTFO
- It's pretty hard these days to even get some seeding done on most things I look at.
  
  You seed that amputee furry midget porn until it hits 1.0!!! I don't care if it takes all year!
  
  I always seed to 3 on public trackers. Never had any issues getting that ratio.
Get on my level Zuck
- Doing the Lord's work.
  
  I just really like sharing Linux ISOs
No lose sitch. Either they stole it , or torrenting is legal. Court has to rule one way or another.
They are trying to slip the distribution charge, but they can’t because they fed it to their AI
- that's not distribution
Well in that case. I'd like to request a free meta quest. I won't give it to anyone else... I may dismantle it and redistribute the parts for profit though.
We all knew zuck was a bitch, but he just admitted to having an awful ratio. Pathetic.
signature look of superiority
They're actually correct. They're assholes, but they are correct. Piracy isn't illegal, distribution is.
that's even worse!
After so many years of corporations fighting The Pirate Bay, you'd think the courts are well versed in the laws regarding torrenting by now.
Its the same argument that the Canadian supreme court briefly legalized downloading 20 years ago.
me too
