Corbin Fisher wants to make money off the gay community, but feels no responsibility for hurting people in the community. For those who don't know this story, the porn producer is going after 40,000 alleged torrent downloaders of his videos. Skipping for the moment the ethical tarpit of his creating BAREBACKING videos in the first place, Fisher is unrepentant about the fact that his lawsuit may out at-risk gay teens whose parents will suddenly receive a legal notice of the suit for $25,000. The video below highlights the very real dangers to these youths, whom Fisher has referred to as "theiving little shits."

This makes me sad in many ways. One would think that Corbin Fisher would be smart enough to understand that once something is on the internet, it's available for anyone, not just your paying customers. Personally, I think most internet companies should just sack up and accept that a certain amount of loss is to be expected from illegal downloading.

Also, I think that prosecuting 40.000 single persons is only going to cause grief and expenses for years and years for everyone involved. If they really wanted to do something and not just get "the thieving little shits" back with their butthurt, they should instead go efter the sites that make it easy for teenagers to get to this stuff or invest in better security for their goods.

I think I could rant on this for a while. And god, I wanna kick those parents who toss out their kids for something as harmless as being gay. I get that some parents are uncomfortable with gays, but seriously, your OWN KID? I could never EVER do that. Something is seriously wrong with those parents.
