@pig…

In other words, you THINK there’s a law about it somewhere on the planet.
FACT: There is NONE.

Don’t worry, there are literally millions of people like yourself, who have been “primed” over the years by the Content Industry’s propaganda and “educated” by those who have a vested interest in seeing you believe it. This is why we need to really step up the reprogramming campaign – it’s gotten to a point where the lies are hurting EVERYTHING.

” There maybe no actual law against downloading but in the UK to make a copy of someone elses work that it protected by copytight is illegal unless you have the copyright holders consent. ”

Ok,
Cite the relevant law in your country.
Or, I am sure there are other UK readers who know and could CITE the relevant text.

Unless you can cite the actual LAW involved, all you have is opinion and conjecture.
What is the legal citation to your claim.

All i was saying was, i dont know what the laws are in Canada or U.S. There maybe no actual law against downloading but in the UK to make a copy of someone elses work that it protected by copytight is illegal unless you have the copyright holders consent. Is this the same in Canada?….Im sure it is. By downloading something you are making a copy. Am i right?…. I am not saying Im whiter than white as i have over 1TB’s worth of films on my hard drives. None of which i have the copyright holders consent. lol.
What makes me laugh though is when i read things like this…’There is no law against..?????….It depends what country you reside in. Whats legal in one country is illegal in another.

” Ok for the peeps that could not grasp what i wrote ”

You’re the only one that can’t grasp the concept.
You’re still wrong.

Cite the law you reference.

There is such a thing as an illegal download in the UK..Uploading and downloading (making a copy of copyrighted works without the copyright owners consent) is illegal.
Just my 4 pence worth.

” Uploading and making a copy of copyrighted works (without the copyright owners consent) ”

That’s not a download .. is it
That would be an ‘Upload’, as you said yourself.

That’s the making available argument that have never been able to prove, and
so far a court hasn’t made them prove it.

There is no such thing as an illegal download!

Everyone should repeat this someone else at least once a day.

To paraphrase mark Twain, there are lies, there are damned lies, and
then there are MAFIAA piracy statistics.

I have one too:
100% of the IPFI bosses claimed under oath in sweden last month that 100% of this illegal downloads would have been bought if only they were not illegally available!

Imagine how crazy someone must be if he truly believes THAT?! (or not crazy, but simply a lier that lies undr oath?) Maybe the only true statement was that his wife is the person in charge in their marriage!?

Yes, What !?

Are you drunk? If not, what are you on? Maybe I would like to try it

@Jon:
“The RIAA and MPAA as “good corporate citizens” preceded by “heh” didn’t ring even a tiny bell?”

Sorry, I don’t think it was written properly, if it was supposed to be “in fun”.
I read it again, and again, and I just don’t see it. The implication was far too vague, in the midst of all the other “quotes” from a fact-based video.

You want the reference to be clearer?…
Say something like, “You’d think this video was made by our good friends…”
The way it is just makes the reader think you’re saying the MAFIAA did make it, as you continue with “the stats are repeated ad infinitum…” and “…both organizations are full of shit.”

(Not that those 2 statements are untrue in any way…!)

Bloody wierd, that. I posted M&M quite a while back – and you have the url – but it’s vanished. Now I have to do it all over again, including formatting.

DAMN!
