Het is inderdaad echt erg. Maar die link legt ook kort en krachtig uit waarom deze veroordeling verwerpelijk is. Deze uitspraak is ook puur propaganda. Het is nog even afwachten voor welke kant het vervelend gaat uitpakken.<br>

Ja, ik vind 't ook best erg dat mensen gewoon een straf krijgen die erger schijnt te zijn dan de straf die op verkrachting staat, om iets zoals dit. Het enige wat ze hebben gedaan is de wereld ronder maken; of laten zien dat de wereld ronder is dan we denken. Kennelijk zien sommige zakenlui en politici de wereld liever als plat.<div>

The Pirate Bay Decision, or the Political Persecution of Sharing<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
*** The Internet, November 27th 2010 - The decision to sentence the<br>
co-founders of The Pirate Bay to jail is both absurd and unfair. It<br>
illustrates how an obsolete copyright law and its indiscrimate<br>
application are harmful to society as a whole. Such an incomprehension<br>
of technological, economic and social realities should not mask the fact<br>
that this decision is above all political. ***<br>
<br>
Citizens who care about the Internet and digital technologies are<br>
startled by the decision of the Appeal court of Svea to confirm<br>
(reduced) jail sentences of F. Neij, P. Sunde and C. Lundström, founders<br>
of the Pirate Bay. The court has also upheld huge fines and increased<br>
damages to the music firms that sued them.<br>
<br>
* On a technical and legal point of view, the decision is unfair<br>
because The Pirate Bay is nothing but an index, which links to resources<br>
that already exist online. This decision amounts to condemning a library<br>
catalog instead of the author of some infringing content or activity.<br>
<br>
* On a philosophical point of view, this decision is unfair because it<br>
tends to condemn the act of sharing. Sharing is good and legitimate.<br>
Culture only exists because it is shared. The problem is that today's<br>
copyright laws and their implementation are obsolete. They are<br>
fundamentally at odds with the new uses that create and disseminate<br>
today's and tomorrow's culture.<br>
<br>
* On a political point of view, the decision is revolting. It is a<br>
statement to convince people that sharing is bad for creators, when it<br>
has a proven positive effect on cultural diversity, revenues from<br>
concerts and other activities and no proven negative effect on sales of<br>
music or other media [1]. This decision will become the emblem of the<br>
imperious necessity to adapt copyright to reality instead of trying to<br>
change reality so it fits copyright interests. [2]<br>
<br>
"The Pirate Bay founders can probably challenge this decision, and take<br>
this case to a higher court, and we hope that justice will be<br>
restablished soon. We are convinced that in a few years time, this<br>
decision will appear to everyone as reminiscent of a decaying system,<br>
keen on scoring a few last hits before the advent of an inevitable<br>
change." conclude together Jérémie Zimmermann and Philippe Aigrain,<br>
co-founders of La Quadrature du Net.<br>
<br>
Courage, Peter, Fredrik, and Carl!<br>

2. Commissioner Kroes recently declared at the Forum of Cultures: "In<br>
some sectors, the levels of piracy demand that we ask ourselves what are<br>
we doing wrong. We must ensure that copyright serves as a building<br>
block, not a stumbling block."<br>
