Flooding a hijacked binaries group with sim videos
Dave Henrie began uploading sim racing videos to alt.binaries.simulators.autos to push out car repair software being pirated there. Others joined by posting GPL videos and the GTR2002 mod, Mikkel Gram-Hansen promoted the effort on RSC, and one pirate apparently downloaded racing videos thinking they were AllData discs.

1024 up.....I wonder how long it would take me to upload a couple of
gigs worth of vids :-)
Is there a maximum file size limit to posting there ?
No, I've never used binary groups much

I know Outlook and OE does this, never seen that option in Netscape
anywhere, maybe I need to set up OE for this then :-)

Sweet stuff!
Keep them coming and hopefully they will find another group to overtake.
Gotta love the download speeds from newsgroups too eh? I'm averaging a solid
200+K :)
Thanks again,

Way to go!! Keep it up! Has anyone tried reporting these guys yet?? I
would think their ISP would like to know about it in addition to AllData.

Way to go John Hilsman. He's continued my mini rebellion. I have a
suggestion for any others who wish to upload big files like sim racing
movies....we already have seen most of them...so why not use the actuall
file names for (alldata and mitchell on demand..the poor sots won't know
which files are good and which are bad.....oooh I'm bad...:)

Just thought I'd let you guys know I'm posting the GTR2002 mod in a.b.s.a.
It'll take a while for it to all get there though. Feel free to chip in with
more sim-related posts to try and take back control of the group.
Enjoy :)

I have posted an announcement at RSC asking people to upload GPL movies and
all other assorted files they can think off.
Thanks for starting the snowball Dave ;)
Hmmm.. we just released a 166Mb Live for Speed video, maybe someone on a
fast connection could download it, and upload that to the group in tiny
bits. It's actually a pretty damned good video, or so I'm told.... IDSN for
me so I'm now neither down- nor uploading anything that big ;)
Find the video almost at the top here http://www.racesimcentral.com it's
called "The Zone"

Hey Mikkel (and others!),
anybody still have the original (oldest) GPL AVI movie from pre-alpha
times, in which Dave K. shows a very early copy of the sim?
I'd like to see it, but couldn't find it online (understandably). Just
curious... Might even have some historical significance ;)
Regards, Ruud
here's as header title from someone who must not be paying attention:
AllData v6.0 Install CD why is this videos of racing cars and not an
install disk ???
way to go...trouble is...we just are hurting them enough to make a
difference.

Yup, saw and almost fell on the floor laughing, I hope his news feed is
really slow and that he spent a LOT of time DL'ing the stuff

Who knows, but at least they have to look a little closer now before
DL'ing stuff, I don't mind setting up my other computer at the shop to
post a couple of hundred MB of appropriately named files a couple of
times a day if it makes it just a little more annoying for them
