Re: A good compromise - she pays $18,000 There are criminal copyright busts all the time. Mostly in foreign countries, like China and India where for some reason those countries decide to do the lawful thing instead of getting bribed by the criminals.
This stuff is civil copyright law. Again, the laws are clear. You aren't the copyright holder? Then make sure you know what you're doing when it comes to downloading and/or distributing. Not sure? Then don't do it.
And until the laws are changed, expect to get nailed for unlawful behavior.
So exactly who are the "we" and what is it that the "we" are trying to do?
Edit: And seriously, you're comparing some cheap-ass downloader unhappy about not getting to infringe copyrights on par with human rights violations? |
