Well, you're sort of pissing right now. My comments are not a reflection on
Volkan, but probably on Massmind. Massmind is not in the technology business
as the casual observer might assume, but in the advertising business. Web
advertisers need traffic. To get traffic they need content. One of the ways
they get it is to operate discussion groups like this one. Another way is to
steal content from people who create actual value, such as Volkan. But
because advertisers often know nothing about the content they hype, they
don't know if an article is finished or complete, valuable or hogwash. So
you end up with crap like we saw at the end of that link. Google makes
$billions stealing copyrighted text from printed books, but if you copy a
DVD you risk the FBI or (get this, better yet...) Homeland Security (WTF?!?)
busting down your door and fining you up to $250K or tossing your keester in
jail. Read the warnings. But maybe you're right. If only I spent more time
playing video games, watching cable TV and texting on my phone, then I might
be truly happy. Yes, everything is just swell. Now where's that KoolAid?
