... didn't really know what to name this thread..
I've been reading up on the RIAA and the MPAA.. they are both in America..
Is there some kinda of English-counterpart?
Just reading up on torrents.. and i can't really find anything about the English side o' things..
I know we are being watched, traced and maybe even tracked.. but are there actually organisations who ..urh, i dunno.. are there? :')
Even though files downloaded using P2P might seem free, the penalties can be severe. According to Wired.com, "Under federal copyright law, penalties for copyright violations range from $750 to $150,000 per work infringed." Each song or movie you download or share is considered a different work, and if you share files with others, each separate download may be considered a separate case of infringement.
..ouch..
