BayUploader

Get Version 1.0.1

Avast ye scurvy images!

What is it?

BayUploader is a simple command-line tool for uploading images to http://bayimg.com. Bayimg.com is free and uncensored image hosting provided by those wonderful rascals over at The Pirate Bay.

Q: What's the big deal about it being uncensored?
A: Well, we really think it is a big deal. Freedom of speech is our foundation. And it doesn't come cheap. You might have heard that old quote by Evelyn Beatrice Hall; "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." It's really that simple. There are a lot of ugly opinions out there, but democracy ain't worth much without the right to express those opinions. There is this myth about freedom of speech being a nice comfortable idea, well it's not. It's annoying, appalling and sometimes even dangerous. But the opposite is way worse.
