I've been reading up on this guy Kim and he seem's like a sleazy piece of shit who's is always involved in some shady business deals. He's been charged numerous times for insider trading and fraud. And his old investment group was prob a ponzy scheme. His older charges seem more serious than what he's currently charged with, but he's being extradited to the us so he might not get probation like he always has.

fuck. flippin' fuck. have to re-archive everything.

EDIT: the US gov unsuccessfully tried to prosecute rutracker.org previously. i can see why they would introduce these kinds of measures. i should have got into coding 10 years ago;-- now that i think of it, i can't believe that the level of skill required to be a hacker is the only way you can navigate the web with basic freedom.

if the US wants to police the net in that manner, establishing its ever-widening jurisdiction as it goes, then attempting to block it by hosting info on other sites with servers located elsewhere seems to be only a temporary solution.

anyone have any ideas? everything i think of involves nukes, sabotage and viruses. not practical on a low budget.
