Hello pirates from the world,<br>
<br>
<a href="http://torrentfreak.com/retired-computerless-woman-fined-for-pirating-hooligan-movie-111222/" target="_blank">http://torrentfreak.com/retired-computerless-woman-fined-for-pirating-hooligan-movie-111222/</a><br>
<br>
I just ran into this article, which basically tells of how an old
woman in Germany has to pay 650 euros for 'copyright infringement',
while she didn't even have a computer at the time this supposedly
happened. The judge ruled in favour of the copyright lobby.
Apparently in Germany you're guilty if *you've ever in the past used
a certain IP* that has been used for 'copyright infringement'.<br>
<br>
It never seizes to amaze me how heartless these copyright guys get.
I don't know if this happens a lot in Germany, but this is such a
sad case that I'm wondering if we should help this woman pay her
fine. If pirates everywhere donate a small amount that shouldn't be
too hard. Additionally it shows the world that the Pirate Parties DO
have a heart.<br>
<br>
However, I would like to ask the German Piratenpartei first what
they think of this, and if they like this idea, I would like to ask
them to take the lead in this small project, simply because it will
be easiest for them to reach this woman.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you,<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
