In trying to be mindful of content length being of a turn-off for a reader, I went back and forth for a few days about whether or not I should cut this particular composition into smaller pieces for more convenient consumption by the public or leave it entirely intact. And because the content contained herewithin represents more of a collection of notes rather than a polished piece of content, if you're looking for a smooth read, you won't find it here and not just because of the length.
However, should you choose to at least try to consume what I've published in this particular post, I believe you will find a variety of talking points that one would not necessarily connect when it comes to the affect and influence of a "fan" acting "on the behalf of an artist," not just as is presented in the Megaload context, but including the competition for top slot rankings in a variety of virtual arenas, let alone the organizations that have histories and legends augmenting their efforts to theoretically create a positive atmosphere in the marketplace for an artist through enforcement of rules and regulations some consider draconian and unworthy of any consideration, let alone those who at least in effort, attempt to abide by such boundaries when contemplating the digitalization of content and what it means to all parties involved with such a transaction, or hand-off as the case may be.
So basically this composition represents a momentary brain dump for me for me to return to for a variety of conversational purposes beyond what I believe continues to unravel in far more revealing ways than anyone cares to admit. There hasn't been a good "For the Artist!" fight in a while, why not use a government legal filing as kindling even though the logs being burned have different identities attached to the same log, right? Paper tigers never hurt anyone, right? After all, many still continue to thrive now that the (Alleged) Petty Pinching For Pieces Of Pennies battle has been flying the internationally-accepted White Flag for a few years.
Even the smallest portions of pennies count...just ask the Dotcom himself, let alone any other master of the online affiliate marketing scene. In fact, many Offline/Online Affiliate Masters do not gain the notoriety Kim Jim Tim Vestor has garnered over the years...tends to mess with their proprietary keyword data, let alone having the ability to leave such a roster in the dust, if not also in complete ruins. For example, botnets are constantly being bought and sold, let alone active renting of these sideband broadcasting networks for a strategic keyword flood into the indexes.
And without an ability to generate rapid in-the-now support via the public social-driven sites, even a spin-off has only a slim chance of surviving as a go-to location for someone to upload a file to. And since Reputation and General Overall Good Will always has weight and measure towards the partitioning and subsequent portioning of the pennies being passed back and forth on and off the accounting books of an Offline/Online Affiliate Master, only so much of the negative content in connection with the Mega Conspiracy Theory can be hedged against in the keyword marketplace before attracting additional attention that may culminate into a scope far wider and broader than a simply copyright infringement allegation.
For example, like it or not, the Vestor Jester has a cumulative magnatism that overcame any concerns about past insider trading issues coming into play back in 2005 when he first sought the trust of the public for his little MegaUploads project. I have seen countless comments questioning how former Governor Rod Blagojevich managed to get re-elected in the State of Illinois and although the Blago circumstance provides me multiple options towards an effort to explain, I cannot help but sit back and wonder how the Kimster earned the trust of so many users...was the insider trading conviction knowledge kept secret or did people know and just decide they didn't care? Did anyone even look into some of the affiliated advertising for advertising that otherwise wouldn't have made the grade with a larger scale set-up such as what is proposed with AdSense/AdWords or was this one of the affiliate programs used to generated advertising revenues? And why should anyone care about Dotcom's online activities if he is classified as an employer of 100+ people?
So with multiple news sources spawning variations of a Reuters release a few days ago containing an alleged email from the Dotcom camp, perhaps it is my own solo bias that senses the content distribution coming across the broadcast channels with flavorings of urban legend sculpting? However, for the 4th VDT observation purposes, it is irrelevant who authored the content (either Dotcom did or did not write it and if Dotcom didn't, then who did?) let alone who sent it to who.
Think about what you use to consider an email to be spam - whether it is the address that creates a flag in your mind or the content that sends alert signals to your fingers with instruction to click the Spam button, something just doesn't sit right. Something just doesn't jive...right?
And yet, every translation software can create a semantics nightmare, both digital and of human form. Just as a digital database contains a list of words to work from (complete with associations), the human mind seems to operate on similar principles and protocols. If you teach a dog to sit on command, it doesn't matter if you use the word "sit" or "super-cali-fragilistic-expialidocious" as the command. Associate the command with the action and ta-da!
Now without getting too deep into the conundrum surrounding choices and options associated with taming the bad dogs, there will always be those that welcome the scoring of being considered "spam" rather than anything else amongst those that could care less about their cumulative spam scores.
With the withering of the Megaracer moniker, there are those that could care less how many people were running the moniker, let alone whether or not hacks of any kind were deployed into the game (with rumors abound online, finding one relating to a no-miss trigger pull hack was small compared to the other slights and slips one can find amongst those who seek the #1 slot simply for the sake of claiming rights to being #1 in some category considered "cool" such as Modern Warfare: Call of Duty let alone Darkness Falls.
Therefore, the publication of an alleged email from the self-annointed and perhaps more pointedly, a judge-approved Dotcom himself brought out the badder instincts amongst my roster of options on how to start exploring deeper thoughts and emotions evoked from being presented a collection of text for my further consideration such as what the news outlets have offered up those interested in this story.
As a relatively dormant artist (gimme good old rock 'n roll!), all of these promises from names big and small that they are the ones who have The Best Do-It-Yourself Investment Vehicle For the Online Artist continue to pucker up and sucker punch those who know how to look deeper into the abyss of even one of these online vehicles. Sure the Dotcom paperwork coup from a personal identity perspective might have scored one for the Mega side of the Smooth Move Community, but there is something more compelling about this fact when the string derivative marketplace is overlayed upon the schematic MegaUploads was offering.
With powerful screams and yells from the "It's Political, Stupid!" (IP,S) community, even I can create questionable contemplation from within, wondering if I am just being stupid for having too much faith in my own personal experiences with the Big G (Government, not Google (GNG)), older as they continue to grow. Therefore, the allegations that the Mega Conspiracy legal filing is nothing but retaliation via Rolodex Racketeering (someone knows someone who knows someone who can plant these kinds of political seeds) are certainly fuel for the indexes, but now let's move onto the content of an alleged email exchange between the Dotcom himself and one of his neighbors.
Here is the content of the alleged email being broadcast by Reuters and their subscribers (editorial content edited out and only content in quotes is displayed here):
*******************************************
First of all, let me assure you that having a criminal neighbor like me comes with benefits..
1. Our newly opened local money laundering facility can help you with your tax fraud optimization.
2. Our network of international insiders can provide you with valuable stock tips.
3. My close personal relations with other (far worse) criminals can help you whenever you have to deal with a nasty neighbor,”
In all seriousness: My wife, two kids and myself love New Zealand and ‘We come in peace'
Fifteen years ago I was a hacker and 10 years ago I was convicted for insider trading. Hardly the kind of crimes you need to start a witch hunt for. Since then I have been a good boy, my criminal records have been cleared, and I created a successful Internet company that employs 100+ people
Now you can make a choice:
1: Call Interpol, the CIA, and the Queen of England and try to get me on the next plane out of New Zealand.
2: Sit back, relax and give me a chance to do good for New Zealand and possibly the neighborhood.
… and don’t forget to bring the cocaine (joke). All the best, Kim.
*******************************************
Now if you will just forgive me if I skip over most of the content and instead head straight for the line labeled "2." in the first section. Quick note for you punctuation lovers--> funny how the two's in this particular composition have their own unique separators.
Why would I upload even one file to an organization lead by someone who offers "valuable stock tips" from "insiders" while holding the record for the largest insider trading scandal in Germany, a title acquired in 2002? It isn't consideration towards my actual account being hacked so much as an apparent ability to power white and/or black list he is not afraid or concerned about implementing using his 100+ employees he cites perhaps with hopes of aligning his operations with the side of the population thirsting for employment of a worthwhile kind, let alone a life-sustaining kind.
The idea of absolutely no need for a hunt of any kind towards those who betray the principles and profits available from those who know how to keep secrets...sometimes for a lifetime or two...let alone how to gamble on such secrets in such a public way as the stock market, even Congress is getting into the act and at least talking about trimming back their enhanced influence over a totally psychological game, i.e. the stock market.
Therefore, this idea of the Mega collection of fans launching yet another cyberlocker as a part of actions designed to sell the idea that such movement is a "Pure-Hearted Despite" rather than a "To Definitely Spite," a total "In Spite Of Goliath" spit in the face of mass emotional outpouring is the driving force behind the screaming in my own mind.
Of which, if you are still of a tolerant mode, it is all connected to these outrageous payout promises bein broadcast all over the place...especially the ones connected to the artist in one and all. The capitalization of the click into transferable funds set the stage for the authorship of online materials being carried under more ominous-sounding titles such as "Project Black Mask" and its relationship with a counterpart known as Clickbank University.
With this example, PBM purports itself to be a set of instructions that can perform the most appealing of tasks, converting your online activities into an income...and the purchase of PBM materials even comes with a "guilt-free guarantee." "You won't get caught!" is but one of many of the short string slogans imposed upon the purchasers emotions when weightng what tactics to deploy when seeking to use the online community as a way to generate an income.
The twist to this particular collection is the promotion of the notion text on a napkin presents sufficient evidence to believe the rest of the story attached to the birth of a Google insider handing off their most sacred secrets. According to some of the promotional content, the conception of the direction of the concept all hinged on fringe suggestions, such as a Google employee going entirely unprosecuted all of these years for "leaking" such valuable insider information. With Manning meaning something to the Wikileaks community, much of what is contained within the PBM model is nothing more than fancy means and methods of operating a trillion+ multi-level-marketing schematic with all participants influencing the purchasing of each others products and/or services.
Whereas one can see a parallel to a buying club of sorts, its back to the new Mega offering and all of its offerings in a battlefield context. With evidence of pre-planning aside, the Blagojevich trial served up yet another codified example of hosting a public trial for profit purposes (remember the pistachio did not actively choose Rod for the promo job. A human decided that, so if you have issues, don't hold it against the pistachio, please!) and this Dotcom spectacle holds even more potential for affection connections to grow from anywhere and everywhere.
To some, the artwork is everything and the dollar sign means nothing. This goes for the artist as well as the business strategist. To others, the artwork is nothing compared to what can be built into the artist so that more dollar signs can be gathered together, until there is recognizable value even in the act of peeing in a toilet, let alone how much Money Per Second (MPS) they are gathering with their own investment vehicles...let alone the ones being chained onto these humanity-driven engines.
It isn't often I look up to the skies in search of something to impose a wish upon (they're having enough troubles with the for-profit naming schematic...some want to keep the new names, while others want to keep their scientific while others want to stay with what they were given when they were first born into the universe...not pretty), selfish as I know it to be. However, it doesn't seem so small relatively to the size and scope of one small set of papers screaming online racketeering charges in relation to activities thousand of others are performing on behalf of The Artist.
I'm tired of the take first, pay later maybe schematics that continue to hold the conscious of humanity across all boundaries. I find it logistically possible for the new Mega to offer a 90% payout to the artist, but what if your content falls towards the unfavored side of their schematics? How much control over distribution do they have built into their programming side, let alone signed over to them for 3rd party sales with the promise of privacy being kept.
Quick side note again, the promise of privacy doesn't mean you don't emote personal behavior signatures, and while some don't care if they ever match your personal identity with the signature, there are others that are just as busy capitalizing on such abilities to act as an intermediary, such as what Google is planning to expand in a month. They are basically saying to all participants, free and paying alike, "Trust us. We know how to interpet your signals better than the rest. We're good at keeping out The Bad and you'll receive More Good than Bad results when you use us."
And yet Google is the most expanded of indexes, in terms of total page counts for strings, as well as elasticity in addition and subtraction events. This kind of end-user driven breathing tactics make it far more likely the match-up of all the Google products will only pour upon the poor Internet pats on the back about the Internet being broken by the Mega Laugh Out Loud conspiracy theories, to where those (maybe not) bragging out loud about beating all others to grab hold of a coveted #1 slot on the Google index. It remains my opinion that mixing up the Google databases into one master mix will not make it easier for them to prove their AdSense/AdWords mix works any better than what I find to be at greater risk of being a method to inject even more poking and prodding into an instant by instant mix of clicks and tricks that create these click tracks in the first place.
Pause is what I would wish for, but even I cannot find clear enough cause to muster up perhaps one more wish upon the skies for such precision actions to be implemented. I can't imagine a matrix-like miracle presenting itself to where all language translation issues are cured by technology, but the tensions being pulled and pushed are not only expected, they are only as conspiratal as the act of wanting to monetize an original piece of fixed content never before seen...and those who do not want to see the material distributed...
no matter what the cost.
To those who believe the Copyright is dead thanks to machines already containing everything anyone could possibly want to say at any given time and moment, it still remains just as irrelevant to the holder of the registered copyright holder versus someone claiming ownership of a same or similar piece of work and never before exposed to said copyrighted materials, therefore said duplication could not and therefore would not be of a thieving classification, rather more of an unavoidable spontaneous combustion of content in a fair use manner of all materials contained within the mind of the individuals performing similar/same behaviors coming together to produce something believed to be so unique, no one else could possibly have thought of it, such as this particular composition inspired by an alleged email sent by Dotcom to a neighbor.
So why some are banned for certain communications while others are permitted to continue onward makes this an interesting feed from the Dotcom campus. He would know he ran the risk of being stamped as spam from his neighbor's end and that there would be possibility of an act of forwarding such an email to others in the community.
The bottom line for this next box claiming to carry the Mega signature is shaky from the get-go, especially if there are resident-related issues, let alone gambling on the ego of a man who allegedly claims to be "smarter than Bill Gates."
It's like having a Blago look-alike moving around in the headlines, except this time around it isn't pistachios being endorsed by the ghost-like look-alike. Its a pick-up of an old standard centering around the excessively violated and oppressed artist and somehow his already proven smarts promise nothing but the ability to outsmart everyone but the truest of investors in the committed artist...let alone any other ingredient that triggers a viral response from humanity.
Lastly, let's go to the first one real quick...the money laundering one.
Let's say an artist really does get paid $.90 on the US dollar. That's not an entirely impossible pay-out structure to promise an artist as a cyberlocker.
But whereas the artist only gets paid per sale of artwork (as in most circumstances being currently offered), the cyberlocker affiliate system accumulates income that is not share with the artist. That means the popularity of an artist can sometimes bring in 100 times the amount of revenue the artist ever sees from the 90% payout. YouTube finally tips, but by invite only and not really sure what happened to Revver, which was supposed to be more of a revenue-maker free to all uploaders.
Pimping out an artist's online presence may sound great in a world driven by flash and circumstance, but the Kim jumps in the Google index are nothing when held up against the circles and circles of links being broadcast with intent on intentionally leading people to visit something or other...to disguise more coordinated visits. Allegedly it happens quite frequently, just think of how many spams have links that are clicked on in any given 24 hour period.
So while the question of whether or not the Dotcom-meister can hold onto his sanity during such trying times (he allegedly barricaded himself prior to capture), it is more curious of a matter as to just how long this current allegiance of some high-powered entertainment brokers and defenders of the rights of copyright holders across the world will sustain itself. Vehicular as it represents in terms of billable hours (even Search Enginge Reputation Management specialists need to get paid!), his keyword collection seems to be undergoing an intentional sacrifice in exchange for a slip into yet another entity three letters away from the identity currently being engaged by federal authorities across the world. What a way to scootch away from one keyword set and start anew! Well, not quite new. Well, not even that young. Semantics eventually will sculpt the page ranks of the new site to re-calibrate old associations to the newone, right?
What continues to stun me into such a long set of notes intended for online purposes is this whole idea that someone convicted of hacking, let alone insider trading, was permitted to legally change their personal name.
Why not just have a whole renaming session for all convicted of anything and everything while we're at it, right? After all, according to Dotcom, insider trading isn't worth a witch hunt.
But its definitely worth a bitch or two from a bitch who knows how to bitch about this kind of stuff. Now to which person such words are heard is up for grabs, but this guy was permitted to legally change his personal name to Dotcom with a serious conviction proving demotion of base trust in the good of humanity's pursuits without excessive exploitation designed to wipe out such a notion for far more than just the direct victims. Marketplaces take hits when such manipulations are revealed and what movements the markets made prior to such a hit is the stuff for anyone but me to contemplate any further than this online string derivative direction this event is taking.
Because cyberlockers rely on a ticketing system (okay, so its called an account, artist liberty for a moment), it's first and always in the hands of the original ticket-holders as to whether or not the materials are permitted to be broadcast in the first place. There are trillions of files containing pictures, songs, stories and other content unique to the individual generating such content to begin with and this spin-off is competing for both new and transfer accounts with a name caught in a political cross-wind that crosses all tangible boundaries and instead transcends and transforms internal calls and responses for conducting searches for a variety of responses from other members of the human race...let alone any other activity within ones environment.
It is through a no-choice set-up that a strong and fast-paced underground marketplace exists...no one can keep up with all of the facets that come with these online faucets like the one Dotcom created.
Or was that Schmitz?
John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt his name was my name too whenever he went out he could hear the people shout John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.
Or was that Schmitz?
Bit by bit, what can become a hit thanks to the Kimster remains to be seen and if wrongful persecution is present, rallies of support would likely present themselves via a variety of marketplaces in ways. But in the meantime, with byte after byte of bits and bites of alleged public record being broadcast, makes this spin-off start on already shaky ground from a search engine optimation return on investment (ROI) ratio. To ride the wave of publicity from all sides, more optimization resources will likely be deployed to stay on top of the heap and the money has to come from somewhere...
