I guess everybody knows you don’t have a good sense of humor.

[...] he’s one of the most grounded big-time comedians out there. Interestingly, Louis has successfully negotiated with file sharers in the past to have content removed from Mininova, a popular BitTorrent tracker. How did he do [...]

LOL!! “Let me guess, you like Dane Cook right?” TOO FUNNY! Good retort, Stu!

Yeah, I have to say to Poster#1 too, You’re an ass. Making comments on subjects you don’t even have an inner clue about….. get a life, or as Louis CK would probably tell you “Go suck a bag of dicks!” ya moron.

And from what all I’ve seen of CK, this is exactly the kind of response and rapport I would expect from him. He’s a pretty genuine guy and he’d have to be in order for his comedy to be so dead on funny and true-to-life. You can’t make that kind of shit up, the guy is REAL and REAL funny!

I wish more artists had this kind of approach
you would think people would be a lot more willing to comply when an artists asks them nicely within reason

To poster #1 this is no setup and no one is doing this as a publicity stunt.

Louis CK is an established, well respected, comedian and from what I have read here a very cool guy to boot. The fact that you have never heard of him makes me question your taste but that is another issue entirely. (Let me guess you like Dane Cook right?) Props to Louis for his coolness.

The question really is. Would the poster have taken it down if someone like Madonna had asked for their content to be removed for the same reasons.

@1cooldude
Exactly…the opposite are idiots like Prince who try to cleanse the Internet of all unauthorized content like its still “1999″

Props to econojon for complying with the request and kudos to Louie CK for a being smart and making a sincere public request without the employment of some bitchy lawyer or some retarded copyright organization. It goes to prove that both side can and should co-exist without too much legal wrangle.
