I thought the same. There couldn't be an easier way to say, "Look at the lawlessness of the internet. These pirates have to be stopped, oh, and they're also a threat to homeland security."

Yeah, this was a really bad idea on all counts.

EDIT: I don't care about being downvoted, but I would like to know why anyone thinks this is a good idea? It accomplishes nothing and makes us look bad. I understand why people are upset, but this does not help.

I don't really want to get meta but it's possible you were downvoted not in disagreement but because someone felt your post contributed little more than a "+1" post.

You might be right about that, but I think it's pretty important not to get mixed up with this.

I know they're not really doing anything harmful to the computers, but they're making us look like criminals.
