Pirates scoff at Microsoft's anti-piracy day
THE SAME DAY that the Microsoft Vole launched its global " Anti Piracy Day" the crazy "pirates" from Sweden that run the Pirate Bay, self defined as the "World's largest BitTorrent tracker" decided to scoff at the software giant's initiative.
Visitors to the tracker quickly found the page "did a Google" and changed its logo to celebrate the special day in their own humorous way. Its logo above the search field changed to that famous Bill Gates 1970s "Mug Shot", with the caption "Bill Gates made me do it", followed by "Microsoft Anti-Piracy Day, Oct 21".
That new logo links to a search request on the site with "Microsoft" as a search string, where you can see all of the Redmond firm's software products currently listed on the tracker and available for download from other BitTorent users, including Office 2007 Enterprise, Vista Ultimate with integrated Service Pack 1, and more.
