Re: EFF - Encouraging Fraudulent Filesharing

said by Michieru2:

It should be a misdemeanor not a civil offense.
then RIAA would no longer be fully involved and instead it would be the job of DA's around the country, most DA's have much better thing to do then go after someone that "pirated something" plus we don't have room in prison for all these people that would be getting sent for "pirating". I don't see it becoming misdemeanor offense anytime soon.

Well obviously. Frankly I rather have our police men catching child rapists and actual crap from the street's than deal with people who steel music.

But frankly people just don't care. Because this is a society where people only care about themselves. They don't think the damage they could do to someone else for there actions and even if they did they still do it anyway.

But I think it's best said we are all criminals because we all broke the law at least once. Might be from turning into a wrong lane to not stopping at a stop sign. We all committed a crime. Sure I might have gone over board to call a illegal downloaded song and justify that as a misdemeanor.

But frankly, I am just pissed off people talk without knowing the whole background. Oh "we aint doing no damage" as if it where all cooperate americas fault. Hell the people who run those businesses are people too, yet you always tried to squeeze in or you got some dumb shit trying to abuse the way a good or service it was intended to be use and eventually when the company gets mad and starts demanding 1 year contracts or special licenses everyone else get mad.

Why? Because one person can ruin it for everyone and the person who you should be mad at is that dumb ass thinking he is all that and so better than everyone else.

It's just like street racing "oh I am a professional driver, pfft nobody is in danger if I drive over 100"

Yet the next day you see them on the 5AM news only to find out they crashed into a school bus filled with people's children and possibly your children one day. Then your going to be the one yelling over dropping the speed limit to 30mph or less.

It's all about point of view really, there isn't much to be said on this issue because we see it every day yet in the end we never find a solution because we are too busy calling the other guy's mother a whore.
