"Moore has stated he supports downloading of his work to spread the message.  His fans spent weeks telling us the same thing when we sponsored the “Release The Movie” project (which is dead after the crash, and may or may not come back depending on the author’s wishes).

Let’s see if Moore really wants this to be about the work and NOT the money.

Steal this movie.  Promote this torrent link everywhere.  Let’s get as many people to see this for themselves, and for free, as we can.  Mikey, if you want to sue me, I’m not hard to find.

Thanks to reader Trond for pointing out the link.

Update by Lee: Lest anyone think that Moore disagrees with people downloading his work product, consider this exchange during a press conference.  Moore was asked by a reporter, “When people download your movies without paying for them, do you think it’s a good thing because your message gets out?” Moore’s reply:

I don’t agree with the copyright laws and I don’t have a problem with people downloading the movie and sharing it with people.  As long as they’re not doing it to make a profit, you know, as long as they’re not trying to make a profit off my labor.  I would oppose that."

He then goes on about how he does very welll financially from his books and films, so downloading his movie is really no big deal.  If you would like to see the clip of Moore saying this, you can download the torrent file and check it out yourself.  So, Michael, if you decide to sue us for posting the Torrent for your film, know that we’ll be playing this clip as our defense.  Come on, big boy, sue us."
