Global Warming threat as an excuse for downloading pirated software from P2P ?
This is a funny poster advocating software piracy to help prevent global warming. Their logic (which makes no sense) is that you waste fuel when driving to the nearest computer store to buy software.
Instead of driving to get CDs, buying pre-packaged software from mega-corporations and wasting energy, you can help fight Global Warming by using P2P. [via Reddit]
Most software companies now offer a download version of their software packages or you can order them by postal mail, why should you drive down to get the CDs. But do turn off the computer screen at night to combat global warming.

Did you realise that you have broken some law or terms & conditions (or something of that nature) of the website that you are leaching the bandwidth from to show that poster, which in my books, is akin to piracy!

This is the nicest idea I hv come across. Atleat this is a way to legalize the p2p.
