Because to enforce a law you need a consensus and there is no consensus.

People obey the law because they agree to it not because they have to.

Moreover very efficient evading technologies are there waiting for a privacy violating law such as ADOPI to proliferate.

And the Camember president that stink almost as much as Sarkozy.

The right solution to this enormous problem is a couple of Jdam bombs on the Vivendique Universale Head Quarter.

We are taking off Now.

Roger.

others: roflmao, epic fail. that’s the kind of things that can only hapend in my contry. XD

Not saying you’re an american.

But france had a good thing going for the longest time in human history. Remember the revolution.

Just wanted to put in this though. The biggest problem with these kinds of laws is how easy it is to be pinged as pirating copyrighted material, without even seeing the files your apparently downloading/sharing.

See http://dmca.cs.washington.edu/ for more details, has a very interesting paper entitled “Challenges and Directions for Monitoring P2P File Sharing Networks –or– Why My Printer Received a DMCA Takedown Notice”

Thanks for the heads up!!!

But the law could be reinstated for a voting in the near future, however that would be very unlikely due to shrinking support even within the UMP (and the complete “Center party” against it) and formal issues (hasn’t happen in the last 12 years).

Who said inquisition ?

NOBODY EXPECTS THE MAJORISH INQUISITION!!

Vive la France!

Come on! All one can know for sure is “file-sharing” is widespread in France.

the world order isnt coming… its already here!!!

I predict that when this fails, they will attempt to pass laws to keep us from protecting our privacy. Some mainstream VPN services are already far to willing to hand over their logs to just anyone who makes a formal request (not even proper authorities).

I recommend using IPREDATOR:

For 60 EUR per year, you gain peace of mind and support TPB (I’d rather support my private trackers personally, but supporting TBP is still cool).

Ohh yes it does.
It mention’s Bono in it.

Just because you say something is fair and balanced doesn’t make it so. You also say that U2′s music is good, and that doesn’t make it true, right?

After all, you just have to accuse, you don’t have to prove it…

The Pirate Bay victory’s on the 17th won’t just pressure the Swedish government and IPRED, it’s going to pressure the French government, too.

“WORLD’S MOST INFAMOUS TORRENT SITE FOUND NOT GUILTY” is a headline that will make waves around the globe. It’s going to call all these draconian anti-sharing laws into a level of scrutiny we’ve never seen before. HADOPI & IPRED will be first on the chopping block. If they even survive that long.

Fail, right there.

Betcha he’s got one “Stolen” track in his “Collection Problem” that won’t stop him “fairly” (failey was typoed 1st..) checking out his competitors in “Pratice”.
