Default Re: Streaming Site Owner Jailed- Ladybbird is Mad!

This whole thing is tricky dicky being played out in court. The sad truth is that conservative law (as it always is) hasn't kept up with technology. The laws don't fit the new circumstances.

So if streaming tv shows is such a crime, show me the difference between streaming and cruising the internet? Links? Nope can't be that, the internet doesn't function without links. Showing something not on your computer? Nope, that is what the internet does. Making a copy? Nope, the internet does not function without making a copy to put on your computer of what you wish to see. TV shows? You can get them over the air on publicly broadcasted channels for free. So what does it matter how far the reception extends?

If reception range were the issue, what would you say about a radio station set up to purposely broadcast subversive ideas into other countries? You know, like Radio Free Europe or Radio Havana, or even the notorious Hanoi Jane?

The whole business here smacks of two things. One is the law being hopelessly outdated. The other is vested interests trying to control something that isn't all that controllable. This is a scape goat setup to take the heat, nothing more.
