The main problem is they don't teach this in school , and also the world expects everyone to know this , how can you know without a teacher to teach.You have to find it on your own. So if someone buys a song uploads it and someone else downloads it , in the eyes of the law it's piracy. If I rent a dvd and watch it with my friend , then that's a form of piracy too since my wife didn't Co rent or pay for the rent process? Because fair value was only attained on one side, so that would be considered as piracy to some degree would it not? Either way in order to better educate the general public they need to have a half hour discussion on this in all middle schools. To educate all future customers have a separate thread where users can easily access and read about the AP code and piracy.
Actually the law is it's illegal to share/seed not illegal to download if you're talking about actual pirating which is torrent downloads, even that is only half illegal, depends on if you're the seeder or the downloader because only the seeder is doing something illegal. I know this for 100% fact because I was at a friends apartment one day and we couldn't get on xbox live, checked his modem and the lights were RED and I have never seen red lights and neither has he so he called the internet company and they said he was sharing files illegally and then he asked if he had to delete all the files or if he could only stop sharing and they said they recommend he deletes it all but he only had to stop sharing/seeding. He unseeded everything and they instantly turned the internet back on and he didn't delete a thing and even the internet people said it's technically not illegal but they advice he still deletes the stuff but it's up to him if he does or not.
If it were illegal they wouldn't have turned his internet back on in like 2 seconds.
I'm not promoting torrent downloading but the laws aren't solid with that suff.
This whole time though none of us are saying we should be able to torrent download Shannon's subs.
