A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

So you believe that if you download an mp3 and claim you are "analyzing" it, then you can't be liable for IP infringement?

Wow, I wonder why the Napster defendants never thought of that. They could have saved tens of thousands of dollars.

They were helping people to reproduce and distribute copyrighted works. There's a world of difference here.
