Re: Usenet + Encryption / Private BitTorrent said by Gbcue:said by BF69:Did I say that? No. But downloading a torrent of movie is. Yes yes no one ever pirates movies, music and TV shows. All people do on p2p is download ISOs of Linux. Downloading a .torrent file is not illegal. Reading a book on how to rob a bank isn't illegal either. |

said by Z80A:Yet the RIAA sues to try and close the library. There are libraries with millions of fictional and nonfictional materials, many of which are educational.
Then there are libraries whose purpose, 99.9% of the time, is to index where to find copyrighted material to obtain freely.
There's a difference. It's a loophole in the law that is getting closer to closed every year.
