I've learned that's how to delete posts around here -- you have to leave SOMETHING in the edited post.

Best to give the benefit of the doubt that ze had something to say, realized it wasn't correct/pertinent, and erased it.

But, yes, it does look very weird when you see it happen.

Ah, I'm used to people going like "*DELETED*" or something, so you know what happened.

MPAA Calls Anti-SOPA Blackouts A "Gimmick" To Punish Politicians & Turn Us All Into "Corporate Pawns"

"A so-called "blackout" is yet another gimmick, albeit a dangerous one, designed to punish elected and administration officials who are working diligently to protect American jobs from foreign criminals. It is our hope that the White House and the Congress will call on those who intend to stage this "blackout" to stop the hyperbole and PR stunts and engage in meaningful efforts to combat piracy."

they may as well just have released a photoshop of osama bin laden and hitler huddled together using pirate bay



like i've said before, they will NEVER get it.

"Despite all the sturm und drang, the movie and music companies contribute the same amount to the economy that they did before file sharing was mainstream—in both 2011 and 1995 their contribution to total GDP was 0.4%. Even better news for them: the Bureau of Labor Statistics gives a wholly positive outlook on future job prospects in the movie industry. This is evidenced by the fact that Warner Brothers just posted a record profit for the third quarter and why Viacom just gave their CEO a $50 million raise.

Today, Hollywood is making the same arguments about the Web and the domain name system. They claim that without the ability to censor the Web, their industry will be destroyed by piracy, despite all the evidence to the contrary. Studies have shown piracy withers in the face of affordable legal alternatives. There’s no better example than Netflix, which accounts for 30% of all nighttime Internet traffic. Maybe that is why it seems movie studios are having more trouble competing with Netflix than with pirates. And as far as the larger economy goes, a study done by the CIAA concluded the fair use — a legal concept that content companies deplore — is worth more to the economy than copyright law itself."
