I got ripped off for thousands of dollars when ProAdult ripped off all of their webmasters, but there was shit I could do about it. Now I see some of them on this board all the time. Some even have a bigger business going on that they were able to set up with mine and other webmasters stolen funds. Shit happens.
DDOS attacks are theft, what do you do about that? There are all kinds of examples. But no point in trying to argue about it if you don't see it. Bitcoin is here to stay, I would suggest learning something about it. Or not.

lol shit happens. sure it does but if bitcoin ever wants to be accepted as a currency in the mainstream it has to be easy to use and not so easy to steal. if someone steals from my bank account, the bank will give me the money back, same with credit cards. bitcoin is set up to be easily stolen apparently. not to mention much of bitcoins in circulation were created via botnets infecting millions of computers...more crimes.
bitcoin is supposed to be a currency, not a business so i don't know why you even mention getting ripped of as a webmaster. we all have been through that. i don't think its comparable to some average joe buying a few bitcoins and not being smart enough to store them offline.
