[QUOTE=Karupted Charles;14631588]I personally don't feel that I drew my line in an arbitrary place. Also I do not see how it is hypocritical I drew my line saying those that profit directly from stolen content are people I will not deal with. [/quote[
What you're not understanding is that GOOGLE is oneof those that profit directly from stolen content.

I dont expect cause I say I don't like company X that nobody else will promote them or that people will be like oh man Charles said they are bad there is no way I can host there. I am simply letting people that can make up there own minds see that these guys are doing something that people may not agree with. If doing so would ruin there business then maybe Choopa should have thought about that and not point fingers at me for outing them.
Stating my personal opinion on a marketing method of someone else is just that an opinion. If your hurt so bad by all this and looking to have to find a new job then I am at a loss for what your reasoning at defending the guys who directly profit from your losses
is. I know you and I have not seen eye to eye since we outed naughty america who was your number one sponsor some time ago but other then that I can not think of a reason your butting heads with me so hard defending guys you have to admit are crooks.

It's not personal, you're making it personal but it's not to me.
You're making a moral argument and it's very flawed, I'm simply pointing out the flaws. If you want to believe it's about something else then there's nothing I can do to stop you.
The bottom line is that it's perfectly ok to have a problem with people who are hurting you directly. (read: illegal tube sites)
It's going too far to have a problem with their host, or their bank, or the company that designed their logo, or whatever. If you're going to go that far then you have to have a problem with google as well.......that's all I'm saying.
