Not to be confused with the casual Kazaa user, the regular IRC downloader, or the
CD sharing home user, warez d00dz are part of the darkest
internet subculture, alongside beasiality porn, virus d00dz, and hotornot.com. Warez d00dz usually copy the warez from their own software, breaking copy protection if need be. Warez d00dz could be found on the web (http) until the
internet stock crash, after which they couldn't find any decent hosting places and took most of their work to IRC or pr0n sites.
Warez d00dz are best used and abused. Without them we would have trouble finding antiquated abandonware and obscure modern software titles, and even Kazaa needs it's sources -- most of which are on IRC. Their egos rest on how much illegal software they've accumulated and shared for all to see, so download a few files and keep the heads big, but --
heaven forbid --
don't become
one!
