Summary:
Netherlands begins enforcing historical Net Neutrality Law.

The next day, court pulls rug out: IPs ordered to block access to The Pirate Bay.

Group claiming to be Anonymous attacks Virgin for blocking The Pirate Bay as ordered.

Pirate Bay calls attacks against Virgin censorship.

Meanwhile, Pirates looking beyond Earth to assume legal activity.

Also Meanwhile, HBO's Game of Thrones on track to become most pirated show of ALL time (HBO is not making it available online to most people in the world.)

But Avengers breaks records, sells $200M despite early bit torrent release.

China researchers making headway with teleporting information far distances without the need to travel through the distance, useful for encryption (and for horses)

With 3D printers gaining momentum, lawyers and judges will be freaking out (making a lot $) over copyright laws surrounding physical materials.

World could eat itself.

Copyright infringement does not scare me. Cyber-terrorism does not scare me. The "solution" of giving global government the power to monitor, restrict, and censor communication scares the bejeezus out of me.

[masterheavy]

nice video.. well done! you´re finally getting that old nice touch you used to have..thanks!

[Sharik Matroskin]

Ha Ha! 2:48 is like the Futurama episode called Benderama. 

HILARIOUS EPISODE!

Almost exactly as she mentions, too.

We don't even have Virgin media in the Netherlands. The trial was Stichting BREIN (the copyright fags) vs. Ziggo (big ISP).

XS4ALL later on voluntary joined Ziggo in the trial, because they are against censorship.

Now XS4ALL and Ziggo are ordered to block TPB, and customers of those ISP's need to use [a proxy] instead of thepiratebay.se ;)

[tyhokan]

I think from 2:09 onwards you're just messing with my mind.

[helloimcalledryan]

But Virgin Media are a British ISP and have nothing to do with the Netherlands...?

Yo ho, yo ho and a Terabyte of porn.
