In the end it's always the small and poor who suffer most, when the richer is attacked. Even Robin Hood would shake his head today. He stole back - not from..
You have to accept that someone are richer, if you want development. If everyone steal, there will be no one left to support welfare... but of course laws, that also protect the consumer and the poor.
Boinboing.net? Looks like tinfoil hat propaganda. Why can't people just face the truth, admit what they did, and stop blaming all others but themselves? The thieves and those supporting/sponsoring it, have created this. Not governments... and now they have also the nerves to whine and scare others about something they created? pfff..

Who's going to support the poor? lol That's hilarious. I spent a good bit of time in upscale restaurants back in the days. The cheapest fuckers were always the rich folks. They don't give away shit. The only reason they setup up charities is so they can put their money in tax free trusts and pay themselves out of it.
Laws don't stop a damn thing. Do you really think anyone gives a fuck about you wearing a seat belt other than maybe your immediate loved ones? NO, then why do we have a seat belt law? To protect the insurance industry and generate revenue for the government. That's it. They don't give a shit about you. So whats going to happen? They will create laws, fuck up a bunch of peoples lives because they downloaded a song, and make the government and lawyers involved money. In addition to giving some wannabe dogooders something to do with their life while they follow you around on the internet and snoop through your computer trying to find some reason to fine or throw your ass in jail.
All this bullshit just opens up a whole can of worms you don't want opened. Next it will be the major sites wantng in on it for people linking to their artcles, NAACP, ADL, etc, etc. Before you know you want even be able to say "Go Fuck Yourself" ..
