It is getting harder for the ones who uses dc++. Wonder when they will start hunting down bittorrent users. Back to the time when c-64 dominated my own computer time, piracy was not even a question. Today, countries are not 100 steps behind, they are closing in on that gap very fast. They have not done very much about it, though. I wonder what that will end. They cannot charge everyone of piracy but a alot more ppl will face the jury I suppose.

What will this lead into? I doubt that they cannot adjust this into legal areas, but how will the future be. What technologies will be introduced for
those trying circumvent the chasing antipiracy sponsered organisations?

It's still not a question for me, because I'm using freeware and preferably free software only. =)

It's not a question for me either, it's an answer!

I'm sorry but that deserves nothing more than a lol

They already hunt them down and supposedly peerguardian will not help you due to the tracker giving out ip addresses to the clients that desire the download.

some of you guys use legal software for real ?

Are you serious?

if you really want to use legal software, generally there's no problem with that. for every expensive software there's always a free alternative

the only problem regarding free software is the operating system, which is no problem if you want to use linux or others, but with windows...theres no free alternative.

for me, its no problem, im using a legal windows xp with a student's license which was free for me. So, nothing illegal here

In Europe Everyday the authorities practice the law to reduce the illegal software and the piracy.For Exapmle in France for the last year are taken more than 10000 pirated DVD'S with illegal music,movies and pc software.

Just a year ago it was legal with piracy in Sweden! But then some stupid politician made a law about it and then piracy was illigal in Sweden too But so far they've only arrested a very small amount of people

yep. at work.. ;)

For when ever there is law, there is those that would break it.. and those that would be hypocritical about it.

Things are just getting dumber and dumber these days.
