Hi boys and girls,
today we are going to talk about a new phrase, "Freedom Surfer".
What is Freedom Surfer you ask?
A Freedom Surfer, similar to Freedom Fighter, is a person who doesnt accept
dictatorial limitations on their individual rights. A person that wont accept the
corporations (RIAA, MPAA, IFPI and others) ideas regarding free information
(none unless you pay them).
in other words, a Freedom Surfer is what's commonly reffered to as 'A Pirate'.
I resent being called 'A Pirate'. While indeed carrying a nice romantic aroma,
'Pirate' has a negative, criminal conotation. I dont think you and I are criminals,
just because we engage an activety deemed 'illegal' by interest groups.


A FILM PIRATE

Corporations make the rules as they wish, using goverments as their instruments,
backed by ludicrus financial resorces, they batter us in courts and try to take
away our rights and privacy.
No more. we have an inherent right for free information, the internet being our
ultimate tool for communication. We are not fighting for the right to watch 'Shrek'
for free. The fight is for control of the distribution methods. this is why they attack
technologies (bittorrent, other p2p, streaming and others). i want to surf free.
not for free, as we all pay for access, but freely. i will not accept being criminalized
for this, being compared to terrorists.


A TERRORIST CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF PIRACY (DOUBLE BAD!)

we want to surf freely, and leave the 'piracy'
stigma to those who make millions of copies in china and sell them for a buck
in chinatown. spread the word - Freedom Surfers!
