Re: Thats a stretch He's right in the sense that if everyone stopped doing it, the issue would probably go away. If there is no illegal activity going on, it's kind of hard to identify the wrong person as having done it. I really doubt there are many false positives where they got the right person but it was actually a legal activity (other than differences in the laws between jurisdictions).
But hey, it's a total pipe dream to expect that to happen. There's no getting this genie back in the bottle completely. |

| They've sued printers (as in those machines that HP, Epson, etc make), dead people, grandparents (for downloading rap) and a college professor (for an MP3 that had "Usher" in the file name). If this many false positives cropped up, how many were quieted because paying $3,000 to make it go away is easier than spending time and money fighting to clear your name with the threat of possibly losing and bankruptcy?

There's no getting this genie back in the bottle completely. so lower term rates to 10 years and make it life in person for anything under ten years and open the public domain on the rest
ends meaningless lawsuits , ends need for more taxes and ends hard ships and burdens on people across all lands and puts money back into the rest of the economy, which then means MORE JOBS for everyone rather then the 5 people running the labels and the 5000 lawyers they hire.
P.S. your gonna have a ton more support with a term rate at ten years then one at 95 years plus maybe another 75 or whatever..... |
