And the Internet with a clear lack of controls has turned out to be even shittier. Unless you profit by being one of those shitting on others rights.
An Internet not subject to the law = child porn being published online. The producing of the content is illegal, publication on the Internet is illegal. No laws makes publishing legal. Makes shaving legal, piracy legal, scamming cards online legal, phishing legal and so many other things that are illegal are suddenly made legal if you do it inside the haven of the Internet.
This is why there was no 3rd option, a little trap to see who was thinking it through. Liketopnotch, standup guy if there were no laws selling enriched uranium online would be legal. Not sure about the physical aspect of delivery and receiving. But the actual selling of it online would be legal.
Would piracy be greatly reduced? If the law on copyright theft was enforced, if it were expanded to make advertisers and billing processors liable to be sued, then yes it would be greatly reduced. Laws don't stop crimes, they reduce them and allow law enforcement to do their jobs. Some seem to think unless a law stops everything 100% it shouldn't be passed. figure that one out for yourselves, IMO great argument for criminals.
