Once we get critical mass there, what's now piracy will become royalty-free fair use. Creative artists will get their payoffs and then their works will be free to copy and share.

Miss Zypries has here the 2cnd name "What is a browser?" as she was asked for which one she uses on her private PC and that was her answer. If the IP data storage really will pass through the constitutional court (what nobody expects, even party members from the german coalition admitted, they just voted for this law as they had to because of the party discipline and they supposed it will never ever pass through the court) it will be only a matter of time until the law will be weakend.
