Yeah.. it sure is a challenge to enforce the law but part of this internet thing growing up is that people need to comply with the law just as they do in real life.
It will be a slow process but it requires awareness with the public and the regulators but im sure copyright laws can and will be enforced in the future.
Child pornography is enforced quite well these days.. 10-12 years ago for exmaple if you ran a CJ or tgp site you would have to weed out daily submitters with CP, the newsgroups were full of it and clicking around on ANY CJ type site would get you into underage material in no time. Not even talking about what happened on p2p..
Same with beast.. beast pics were posted here on this board on a regular basis a few years ago..! Can you imagine doing that today?
In 1995 you could start a website, rip some content and nobody would or could really do something about it..specailly if it was on a website outside your country...theres loads of progress in that area these days.. i shut a site
down in Isreal that was using our content a few weeks back..
Sure.. all of the above things ive mentioned are and will always be available online.. but there will be a day where, just like with the above examples, it simply will be 'not done' to rip a music disc op copy a film because chances are big youll get caught, the law will be enforced and youll end up with a lot of trouble.
The problem with music and dvd is simply that it has a bigger userbase than the above examples, but thats
just a matter of time until the resources are available for governments to deal with that.
