SYDNEY, Sept. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Simon King's Utilities Group claims MagicRAR has been cyber-bullied and censored for the past three quarters at DonationCoder. The company alleges DonationCoder are stifling competition in the compression industry by censoring MagicRAR posts on their site, under the pretext that they are advertisements. However, DonationCoder are simultaneously asserting the right to retain technically inaccurate, intentionally misleading hate speech on MagicRAR under the guise of free speech, including overt violations of the MagicRAR EULA.
In an effort to build good will, MagicRAR launched a free product give-away on DonationCoder some months ago, to encourage users of competitive products to download and try MagicRAR compression software and determine for themselves which compression software is the best product. "We have been working with the website administrator Jesse Reichler for the past three quarters, bending over backwards trying to build good will," observes Simon King of MagicRAR. "Unfortunately all that came out of our product give-away was the reverse engineering of our unique technology - something that is explicitly forbidden by the MagicRAR EULA. It is astounding that the site owner Jesse Reichler has lost control over his 'trolls' to the extent that they will not allow him to redact information obtained by the illegal reverse engineering of MagicRAR."
MagicRAR pioneers full-disk transparent data compression technology with up to three times better compression than Windows, still unmatched in the industry a full two years after MagicRAR's initial release. More information on how MagicRAR is attracting former WinZip and WinRAR users is available at www.magicrar.com/drive-press.html. MagicRAR's full disk compression technology finds ideal applications in server virtualization environments, where limited storage is effortlessly increased at absolutely no cost. Additional applications include lowering cost-per-gigabyte on expensive SSD (solid state drive) hardware; as well as unlimited consumer applications where space is a concern with any kind of local storage.
MagicRAR reached out to its community to ask them what they thought about the cyber-bullying at DonationCoder. "I read, with some degree of concern, some of the posts at DonationCoder," says Rosalind Share, a MagicRAR user. "I agree that the comments were aggressive, hostile, inflammatory and simply not very nice...for whatever reason, they took exception to the word 'magic'...envy and the wish to destroy has happened on many forums." Mike McCann, another MagicRAR user, added, "I think sometimes people confuse free speech with calumny or slander. I also think that whoever writes claiming the mantle of free speech should have the courage to show their name and contact details, and not hide under the cover of anonymity."
