I love the irony that Asher Moses complains to TF so they write a story and will then use their story as the “basis” i.e. plagiarise their story as his own – Have yet to see an original story from this guy….

In any case, Ernesto – you are not correctly representing the HADOPI stats:

The Hadopi figures, do correctly show that (just) 4% of the total have stopped, however, 80% self-report that they have never downloaded content, and therefore have not been required to modify their behaviour. Among the 19% subgroup who admit to having downloaded: 4% stopped (as previously stated) and a further 9% modified their downloading activity since the introduction of the law (13% total), while 6% said their behaviour is unchanged. So the statistics should be read as: 65% of the subgroup of downloaders admit that they have changed their behaviour in some way during this early stage of Hadopi implementation.

I doubt that is accurate in the slightest, to be blunt. There are probably just a lot of smart people out there who refuse to say they fileshare fearing that the honest on that study will come back to bite them in the future.

It’s like if you did a study to ask adults if they ever doinked a child or teenager. Most would be suspicious of it and lie, even if they had and it would make that obviously normal when most answered in the affirmative, fearing that the affirmative response would come back to haunt them in the future.
