Rolling Stone reviews Them Crooked Vultures
Yes, the new John Paul Jones/Dave Grohl/Josh Homme album is awesome. But I couldn’t find a link to a place where I could buy the album in an acceptable format so here’s a full quality copy via bittorrent instead (lossless, FLAC).

This is a clear sign of the need for real decentralization. Bittorrent is awesome technology, but clearly not independent enough for these kinds of controversial but necessary infrastructure projects.
Also: TBP’s blog entry.

The Pirate Bay claims to end all contact with Old Media
Due to pigfuckery performed by people representing Old Media, TPB claims to no longer respond to any press inquiries.
Anything even remotely connected to technology has never been represented correctly or fairly by journalists (whom we all know are clueless by definition), but the last straw for TPB’s staff was apparently claims made by a media outlet yesterday according to which TPB had “published pictures of dead children” (Google translation).
The pictures in question are part of autopsy reports related to a high profile murder case made public by the prosecutor and are, obviously for anyone familiar with Bittorrent, uploaded by some user of TPB. As TPB isn’t in the business of censoring the Internet, they have refused to remove anything except child porn from the service, which in this case lead to death threats being aimed towards the staff.
