Re: 3 Strikes Rule?
I was interested to read the other day that four peole in the UK have been sucessfully prosecuted for sharing a game using P2P. Key interest getting points are that none attended the hearing, knowing why could be interesting; the law company involved sniffed out the suspects and then approached the copyright holder - translate these guys are your typical ambulance chasers; and the game the breach involved cost less than ten pounds.
A good lawyer may have found a breach of privacy or civil rights issues that got them off the hook but the case has set a precedent now.
