Re: Is having link to copyrighted material illegal? quote:
sometimes the law itself is 'wrong', and shouldn't be adhered to, enforced, or paid any attention to.
So go for getting it changed or dropped from the books. Easier said then done which IMO why some of those laws still exist.
For your reading leisure.
Dumb Laws.com
Just looking at a few of those laws at that site shows I have broken a few myself as well as others but the cops are not going to enforce the law unless they can add it onto an existing charge to pad it IMO.

As to the topic of which I do not care if a person is paying or not paying for software as that is for another thread.
quote:
Gary Fung; "We filed the court documents because we were threatened by CRIA. Essentially they're saying that all we do is infringe on their clients' copyrights," he said.
If the links point to products that can not normally be obtained without purchasing them is that not contributing to infringement?
Example I. Customer pays for software then receives link to download the file. The file is not normally linked until it is paid for. Site A, B, or C makes the link(s) available to download files not normally offered without paying first.
Example II. Customer had the option to pay for multiple downloads of his/her purchased material but chose not to now he or she needs to redownload so instead of going through the company that sold it uses site A, B, or C to obtain the link(s) to get the product again.
