A new dimension was just added to the ongoing stream of BitTorrent lawsuits in the U.S. A Canadian BitTorrent user has been ordered to pay $60,000 by a U.S. District Court judge. The Calgary resident, who did not defend himself, was ordered to pay the damages for sharing two films on an adult-oriented BitTorrent tracker.

considering the treat that they are talking about (berne convention) only recognizes the registration of copyright for enforcement under the laws of each country.
and not the right for US laws to supercede their foreign counterparts law
this judge seriously errored on his decision.
this case should have been tried in calgary under canadian laws.
