Dude A. its fake B. there is no way microsft would go threw the time to take down something like that becuase they no that someone will just load it back up somewhere else like umm idk megaupload, rapidshare just to name a few. i can tell that within 5 days everyhting will be back to normal and will hear about on the ppcgeeks podcast which btw i enjoy listening to at work

It's still wrong to upload someone else's work and then post a new link unless you have their permission.

How is it wrong to mirror someone's work? It's not like he's not claiming it's his own work

because mightymike asked personally for it not to be mirrored so he could keep track of download totals and such. many chefs and creators ask the same so they have some numbers to work off of otherwise it wouldnt be close to being right

Going against someone's wishes doesn't make it wrong. No matter what you do, you're pretty much always going to be going against someone's wishes. I bet someone wishes somebody would upload a mirror right now, but everyone is going against that

Not saying that people's feelings don't matter, but mighty is the creator of this, and he has the right to make that request. If he asks that no mirrors be made, then none should be made, regardless whether it'll go "against someone's wishes."

very much agreed, it would be like a hospital going against your wishes and pulling a family member off of life support.....

I call spam too. Did you see the email address at the bottom of the letter? Internet1@microsoft-antipiracy.com just looks fake to me. Seems like MS would have something a little more professional than "Internet1".

It looks like the domain is owned by MS, but the administrative contact is some outside firm, actually an ISP. It also is hosted in the UK with several other anti-piracy domains such as Adobe.
