What I have never understood is why they have yet to figure that out. It frankly just seems like common sense, but still they continue to look like idiots.Quote:

They really can't go after just downloaders unless they have some way of gleaning who is downloading what, which would be near impossible unless they had someone in the chain spying on you and that would be in itself breaking the law. IMO another area where Usenet blows P2P away.Quote:

Amsterdam, 4 November 2011
Dear visitor,
On 28 September 2011, the District Court of Amsterdam reached a verdict in the procedure on the merits of the case that Stichting Brein had brought against News-Service.com. The Court has ruled that News- Service.com is to cease ‘recording and offering material protected by copyright and neighbouring rights’ on pain of period penalty payment.
Unfortunately, News-Service.com sees no way of complying with the Court's verdict while ensuring a regular and normal provision of Usenet services. As a consequence, on 28 October, we started interlocutory proceedings and asked the summary Judge to order Brein to cease the execution of the verdict. We have learned today that the summary Judge has denied our claims. This means that we are forced to cease our operations with immediate effect.
However, for reasons of principle, News-Service.com will not accept the verdict and has lodged an appeal.
We would like to thank all relations of News-Service.com for the pleasant working relationship and the trust they have placed in us during the past 15 years.
Kind regards,
Patrick Schreurs and Wierd Bonthuis
News-Service.com
they must appeal to the European Court of Human Rights. the judge is obviously bent

He occasionally comes back here when he's out of a job or something until all the newer FST-members start to see him for what he is.
