The Pinoy Teens Online surveillance team was up all afternoon sneaking along the corridors of the “Philippine” world wide web to catch people who are using illegal softwares and unlicensed, pirated scripts. A few have been reported already and successfully banned, while other sites are still on the dead row.
WHY are we doing this?
Because we hate Piracy, we hate people who are ripping off the salary of the people who work so hard on creating a quality software, just for some junky to grab a nulled version and makes use of it without paying. Don’t you know that some of those developers earn their living by the means of contributing to the development of scripts, like IP Board for example? I know, people will think of us being insecure of competition, but we definitely are not. It’s just that, the use of unlicensed scripts has grown rapidly. Someone needs to draw the line, and we will start it, here on Pinoy Teens Online.
Think this way..
For example, you are someone who is fund of developing friendster profiles, someone would rip it off, use it and say it’s his own; how would you feel? Or let’s say you wrote a quality post and are so proud of it as one day you check in google for your standing you see someone ahead of you using the content of the post that you have made? I know, you would feel angry about it. You would go and look for a solution to stop the copycat from continuous violation of copyright, wouldn’t you?
And that is what we are going to start, we will attempt to stop people from using illegal scripts and unlicensed wares. We’ll try to do our best to take the most efficient action in order to get a suspected website using unlicensed scripts down, the quickest way possible; just like we have reported the chibbo forum, which ones used vBulletin.
Think again. before you use a script that you haven’t paid for, I know, you know, we all know that you ain’t feel happy about it, so would the developers of the copied scripts you got feel too.
One of Philippine's first when it comes to entertaining, informative and educative content.
So you say that piracy is bad, okay I get that, but you can’t stop it, as long as there are programs, there are exploits, and the more messier you code, the more easier someone can get into it. There is a code of honour here, pirates live of the programs they steal, so they can’t afford for this industry to end, otherwise the whole scene will end. Pirates do this for technical prowess, and for showing off, not directly for pirating, there are some who do this but not the majority. As I saw from every crack, patch, and full version DL I got theres always the words, or reminders like; “buy this software if you like it” because they really want you to buy it. Its yin-yang, security patches and the people behind them get their work from pirates, and all the while our tech is evolving.
So I say, say YES to piracy, really, but if I get another stupid copy of a movie that was just videotaped from a movie house, I swear to God, I’m going to flip out.
Excuse me is in every where this is the nature of human like to control and destruction and the only way to stop it is to exterminate the human race
but thanks fo the article
Good question about piracy………………… well as you all know that today there are so much high rates of softwares and many other types of things present in our world which was not afforded by all of us………..and dew to this fact piracy of softwares was increasing day by day.
Once Linus Torvalds Said-
Softwares are like Sex , It is good when its free………
Piracy, a sad act. People usually use piracy because they can’t afford it or aren’t old enough to use a Credit Card. Think of this, poverty is growing every day. Piracy is growing every day. Coincidence?
JiaSens last blog post..A new inhabitant has come to CriticalMS.
:slap: ang pinaka maganda sa mundo ay = FREE 😆
Hello? Even this author of this article use pirated items/materials. Do not deny it. I bet you used pirated software or script for your website. Or rather used images from other websites. If not, at least even once in your life you did on other websites.
You can never prevent, avoid or annihilate piracy of softwares and scripts. It is like picking up bit by bit of sand in the desert. This is like you are trying to eliminate pornography in the internet.
Anyway, eventually you’ll get what you wish, that is RANK! Hahaha.. Heaps of topsites logo on your site are not enough for you? Gosh!
There’s nothing bad in trying to get rid of piracy nowadays. Ever thought that way? Secondly, I’m using SMF (GPL) and WP (GPL) what could be pirate about those two scripts?
Those are community owned. If you understand what that means
EDIT: I think SMF is GNU
EDIT: I have page rank, I have the money, I got the Alexa Ranking, why adding those top sites are just for fun, even without them there wouldn’t be any major changes in rankings.
Common Sense please?
Hi, i was surfing around on this blog of yours funny thing you hate piracy right?
Hahaha.. I didn’t say you pirated this WordPress and your SMF. Did you buy your image editing program? Did you buy your code editing program if you have? Even once in your life you didn’t submit to piracy?
Want to know I didn’t think of this act? It is because I won’t waste my time doing it. There are many ways that you can help others. But with this, this article and act won’t go anywhere.
Anyway thanks dude. You didn’t waste your time replying on my comments. LOL.
Yeah do whatever you want with this. By the way, it’s QUITE and not QUIET. Lol. You really don’t take some corrections, do you? This blog is yours but you can’t take some feedbacks and criticisms.
Eventually this article will only achieve rust and dust. Contact me if ever you failed on this act. Lol.
i know your guilty for what i said about you kevin shame on you
LOL! So hard-headed! I know we all are not perfect. But you are disagreeing with me on a simple spelling? I won’t go to your site again.
Last advice to you dude, “try to listen sometimes.”
