An innocent man had to pay $4k just because he didn't want to give up one of his basic freedoms... It's a horrible world we're living in. A world ruled by fat pigs and their political lapdogs. A world where freedom is considered a crime. I don't really believe in democracy, but old-style democracy was 1000 times better than what we have now.

And they are not satisfied? That's a huge sentence for something as small as what he did. Did he put anyone's life in danger? Did he stand to earn a lot of money? Did he harm culture? Hell no! Taking a box of candy without paying is a bigger offense in my book. He gets “A$5,400 (US$3900) (fine), (and) placed on an 18 month good behavior bond and set free.” And they are not satisfied?

Some sort of law-breaking cat? *By "do" I assume you mean "have sexual intercourse with". @TommyFlorida

You make me laugh.

1. I don’t keep my feces. If you want it, take it.

2. I don’t “do”* crime pussies. What is a crime pussy, by the way? Some sort of law-breaking cat?

*By “do” I assume you mean “have sexual intercourse with”.

However, because something is illegal does not necessarily make it unequivocally wrong. If this was the case, laws could never be altered. I, for one, believe that the current current copyright and IP laws are wrong, behind the times, and need to be updated based on hard facts obtained through credible and transparent methods, not piecemeal studies conducted by lobbyist corporations in the hopes of influencing new legislation for profit. You may be right about the legality of filesharing, but I nonetheless disagree with your analysis. I believe it (filesharing) should be legal, that laws concerning this topic and the internet in general are outdated, outmoded, and ineffective, and that the nature of technology in question should be understood by lawmakers before laws are enacted. I wish to explain my position to as many people as possible and attempt to convince them the filesharing should be legal. If enough people are convinced of this fact a democratic society (regardless of its previous laws) must change the definitions causing the illegality of filesharing, or else cease being a democracy. It is not within the rights of any person to force me to change this point of view or stop me from voicing it (provided I act in a peaceful and legal manner). To sum up: if semantics are the problem, the solution is to use the democratic process and alter the definitions in question. To the particularly vehement anonymous poster,
