Default Re: DepositFiles Settles Multi Million Dollar Piracy Lawsuit

This reminds me of a ruling by a judge here.

In a case, the accused got off because the judge ruled that the picture on a website was virtual and not a real picture.

A virtual picture can be manipulated, altered with Photoshop, ect.

A lot of people can't grasp that virtual means virtual. This is where the lawyers smell money because the law does'nt know how to deal with this..

If you download something from the internet, it is not stolen, because the original is still there.
Did you copy the original? Not really, because you don't have access to the original (A physical item).
Did you copy a virtual copy? You probably did.
Maybe you borrowed something virtual and when it was trash you deleted it.

And there is so much trash arround on digital media.
