It wasn't about translating audio, that would be illegal. It was about making subtitles which is not enough of a work altered, so translator have the copyrights for translation
It is NOT illegal to translate only text from a film. It is illegal to translate film and release it publickly. But they were only spreading translated texts, and translated text is not whole copyrighted material, so copyrights for translations belong actually to translator.
Well, it ISN'T illegal to translate only text in Poland.
By judgement of Highest Court from 23.01.2003:
The making of translation of word layer of audiovisual creation does not make processing of it as a whole. Thereby it can be spread without consent of the maker of original work. The translator have copyrights to translation.
So whole action was on illegal grounds. But they found many upon many pirated films in those folks' houses, so they will have jail or fines anyway.
In some ways, monitoring is more dangerous and insidious than censorship as it allows building cases against perceived "enemies" of the state.
So you're saying censorship is bad for enemies? How can that be not good for a country? In the whole censorship thing there is just a BIG conflict of interests. Some people like doing many things that are not legal, but not immoral. And they fear of their own government that they will be screwed. Some other just like privacy for no concrete reason. On the other side, some people would like for their government to protect them from any harm and evil, but this is not possible as long as you can't track all people like in big brother. Now only thing there is to do is to ask WHERE should the boundary be on tracking and spying own people.
You don't need to trust Vista with your network. I'm network admin at my campus, and about only one of 20 computers with vista is able to function in my network. Whole rest just doesn't work and nobody knows why.
Because it's dark and you can't see it (or detect it). It only interacts with our matter through gravity, but we don't have the precision instruments to detect it.
I was using emusic, but resigned recently. Although it has 2 million tracks, I couldn't find enough good music to fulfill my basic 14 song per month limit. However I would recommend it to everyone, just download winamp and sign for your 50 free tracks program to test it thoroughly.
In about 5 years we will have easy cyborgization sets, holographic tv, batteries that run your laptop for week between charges, fuel cells, 80 core processors, actually good hybrid/electric vehicles, good speech recognition engines, solar cells with 90% efficiency, solar cells with $5/square meter, and flying cars. Oh I forgot, also vista will be after sp2, and running stable and smooth on then normal computers. But It will be always currentYear()+5:/

Well, idiotic givernment is one of the reasons so many polishes gone to england and ireland. We too don't think too good about our government.
In theaters some films even don't have subbing, just polish subtitles. Like many cd's.
Same here in Poland ;). Although if you harm the offender, he can sue you and you're going to jail.

I'm Jack's testosterone, I will kill you.
It's TFT e-paper, NOT TFT flexible LCD. It doesn't use liquid crystal. The company's name is Philips LCD, so they write Philips LCD display.
So if we stop him doing his "journalism" he actually WILL be right two times a day? That's win for everyone.
Oh my god. Best disaster EVER!

Nope, the noise from cutting tool was too high then.

Ubuntu FF will be stable after second servicepack. (hides from a tossed penguin)
Yes, but they still have those two botnet's so they are not secure.
