Kazaa And Exportation of U.S. Copyright Laws

Mr. Vidster writes "Interesting article in the NYTimes about the potential issues the U.S. justice system must face when dealing with Sharman Networks and KaZaA. Apparently Sharman and KaZaA have servers in Denmark, source code in Estonia, and the developers live in the Netherlands. How far does the long arm of US copyright law reach?"

  1. To Hell with the US Govt by DSL-Admin · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Our govt is the largest collection of hypocrites in the world. They all need to be fired and replaced with monkeys... as they would do a better job running the country, and would work for bananas.....Democrat, Republican, it doesn't matter, they are all useless. They all lie, cheat, steal, and every single one of them is a yellow-bellied coward.... Spending all this money fighting a P2P network.. Why don't they try to fix the deficit, work on peace, or something intelligent...... Wait..!!! I know why, cause they get paid for every crappy law they make.. and we all know how corrupt and money hungry politicans are!!!!!!
