    This just in: Google buys Paramount Pictures and Columbia Pictures!

    Google should buy some MPAA companies ans then stream all their movies hi res on youtube for premium 30$/month accounts. (works for the p0rn industry)

    That should make better use of them.

    Before today I have never heard of MPAA....
    after GOOGLE MPAA I found out it is some useless american crap, just like alot of European countries has anti pirate (copyright wanking lawyers that isnt acting on behalf of the ones getting infragmentet, but for own benefit)...

    Again.... Really, adjust title.... World is a bit bigger then North America... I know it is unbelievable, but matter of fact is that North America isnt even 10% of the worlds population

    If this pans out the way we all hope it goes in our happy fantasies, it will be used for anti-drugs messages till the end of time.

    THIS is why you should never do smack.

    this reminds me of letters and emails from sony, warner etc. to the piratebay.
    they even responded to them and put the whole thing on their website. was very funny to read.
    let´s hope google will remove everything mpaa related from their search engine and just let them die on the dark side of the internet

    Google doesn't probably know about the whole issue though. As I said, some of the targeted receivers of those spammed emails happened to be employed by Google. Thats all.

    Google takes care of its employees. It's not your typical workplace. There's no reason to believe that Google will throw their employees under the bus.

    So you're telling that since one is employed by Google he automatically is an internet tough guy and has Google's blessing? What I'd see to happen would be that Google wouldn't give a damn about it, have some laughs at ACS:Law and move on.

    Or does Google take action if Nigerians try to scam it's employees?

    It would be better if they distributed them for free, then the MPAA would be really pissed off and everyone would know not to **** with google again

    Implying what?

    I'm just pissed how stupid people can be. ACS:Law spammed tons of email boxes with their crap and some of those happened to belong to people employed by Google. Now people think that MPAA is telling Google to pay them money or then come to court and get itself disconnected. ..which they definitely aren't doing.

    If I do the same to, say a person I know who works for Google, am I trying to threaten Google itself or just a person being employed by them?
