Got this email the other day from Steve Easton at APIC

---
As of Monday Sept 7, APIC will be closed permanently.

Recent lawsuits have not received adequate financial support to make continuing a worthwhile cause.

I wish you all the best of luck.

ahahahahahahaha

Guess it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the cause there, now does it? (and lack of support

)

Now maybe someone will start a similar organization, but this time leave out the "fucktard" factor.

Very interesting shit..

They didnt do a very good job anyways when it got down to going after legit people..

What is APIC?

Mutt · 09-09-2003, 10:23 PM

he was his worst own enemy, but what he did was noble. he could have made more money for himself as a content provider.

KRL · 09-09-2003, 10:26 PM

Thank God. Goodbye, adios and happy trails . . .

That guy had the wrong approach from day one. I'm surprised he lived long enough to go out of business. He came pretty close to getting whacked by some people he came on heavy duty with who you just don't fuck with, with his in your face kind of style, attitude and tone.

com · 09-09-2003, 10:29 PM

Well shit on me, With APIC and SPEWS both down... I'm almost willing to sell my guns.

Kevin2 · 09-09-2003, 10:30 PM

You can't treat people the way he did and expect your business to survive. With a different attitude he could have done well.

quiet · 09-09-2003, 10:33 PM

the guy was a fucking asshole, and a bully. no surprise he finally went down.

MattO · 09-09-2003, 10:33 PM

they might have had their panties in a bunch about crakin' down on the theftin', but they did do a good job when I had to report my own content stolen... they just got too vigilante

Basically, just this little schizophrenic nerd with delusions of grandeur, who ran around thinking he was a lawyer. And that other people believed he was, too.

Unfortunately, my cat has better grammar, spelling, punctuation, and the ability to use fake legalese.

This is a message to Steve.

I have always respected you and your cause and supported it.

But the way you have treated the "issues" you have a problem with.

you can go:

If you ever decide to take the roll of Internet sheriff again....get a different front man that doesn't rub the whole world the wrong way and you will do fine.

Thanks.

This is the greatest news I have heard all month. That guy was one of the biggest pricks I have ever dealth with. Maybe there is a god. . .

PowerCum · 09-10-2003, 03:24 AM

Happy to see this bitch out of business.
Some time ago they reported that I was using a stolen content. The fact is that the content was shoot by myself and my partner and I was the one appearing on it with a girl

When I got his complains about how I was using my own content on my own site and that is ilegal because I sole it (from myself ??? ) I almost died by the laught it caused on me

Theo · 09-10-2003, 03:43 AM

p2p content providers baby!!

chodadog · 09-10-2003, 03:50 AM

About time. Steve Easton was an arrogant fuck. Sooner or later, someone was going to bite back. I see this as a great oppurtunity for someone else to step up and start a similar organisation, but fair, and professional one. The industry could really use someone looking out for the rights of content producers. Steve Easton just wasn't the answer.
