[QUOTE=Zezibesh;32649649]I remember reading this document when one of the last ACTA threads was made Isn't there a part that basically says "we don't need proof to take your hard drives and shut off your Internet" [editline]6th October 2011[/editline] Better just to encrypt your storage drive with AES256 or maybe even something stronger if you have downloaded songs I'd rather go to jail for a short while for obstruction of justice than pay over half a million[/QUOTE] Or cite the Fourth Amendment, which pretty much says the cops are [b]required[/b] to have a warrant before they can search your shit.
The fees for piracy are rediculous What it is: $u, where u is an arbitrary large number What it should be: $5(5log(n)+(n)) or something of the like, where n is number of songs. With this, one song is $5, two songs are $17, three songs are $27, 30 songs is $187, 1000 songs is $5075, a million songs is $5000150, lim[n->infty] songs is 5(infty). This way, the price per song starts at about $10 and tapers down to $5. Honestly it takes like two seconds to get some simple formula like this and just a bit longer to standardize it
Copyright lawyers must not know logarithms.
Won't it be forbidden for them not to enforce it? I mean they can't decide who do they punish for a crime and who not, that'd be abuse of power.
[QUOTE=Talishmar;32666374]Won't it be forbidden for them not to enforce it?

More importantly how can they justify taking action against someone who infringed on copyright? Stealing a physical copy, which ACTUALLY harms the developer/artist, is almost a better alternative.
