Mainstream media strikes again! Trying to box bitcoin as a currency and completely ignoring its other potential - killer app economic censorship.

I am starting to beleive there are outside forces that are out to make bitcoin fail and are now brainwashing the masses. Telling them bitcoin as a currency has failed.
Of course, we here know that ain't true

The bitcoin magic is losing its Midas touch

I reported Kahir for copy paste previously here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1586378.0


Seems to be a serial copy-paster, who has gotten away for months. Maybe because it is a legendary account?
We just have to wait for the moderators to take note.

Meanwhile, has anyone created a bot to detect this problem?
A simple tool to see if your posts have been plagairised would be quite handy.

but wouldn't overload the forum ever more, considering that are already topics about people complaining about forum being slow and stuff

The forum's quite quick. The browsers of the people using it is slow?
There is a limit of one connection per second (I think) meaning that you cannot send more than one request to the server from the same IP more than 1 second (making it harder for archiving services as well). Maybe there's a mirrored version of this site tat could be tested instead? It's a shame the entire index.php data isn't uploaded to somewhere like github with the part of the sql data that contains the information such as user who posted it, rank, activity, post count, signature, avatar and actual text of what they put.
I thought the forum was intended to be fairly slow anyway due to the magnitude of information that needs pulling and loading.
