I have officially worn out my last nerve with spammers. Even though my site doesn’t get massive amounts of traffic, I still have to deal with a shitload of “buy sell bargain sex teens free viagra” -nonsense in my comments moderation area. And I’m fucking sick of it. Up to here. Fed up. So I’ve closed commenting for the all of this year’s posts and the ones to follow. I’m sorry about this but I’m tired of having to go through hundreds of comments and pages of dribble in the hope that someone has posted something smart. The commenting system wasn’t exactly being used that regularly so I doubt anyone will really miss it.

Intellectual Property is the oil of the 21st century - Mark Getty, Getty Images
Steal This Film, a Swedish documentary films series about the movement against Intellectual Property and the Copyright Wars. Up ’til now, two parts have been made. Part One is an analysis about the PirateBay site takedown in 2006. Part Two looks more into the Copyright Wars with the exploration of the Internet’s effect on copying, as well as cultural and technological aspects. If you’re at all interested in this topic, I suggest you surf over to the film’s website and download a copy (various formats available). It’s free to download via BitTorrent only from their site; Part 1 and Part 2.
