    Anti-Piracy Group Throws in the Towel, Pirates Walk Free

    Following several legal setbacks, a Danish anti-piracy group which represents the music and movie industry, has announced that it will stop going after illegal file-sharers. The outfit came to this decision after it lost several court cases against alleged copyright infringers


    http://torrentfreak.com/anti-piracy-...k-free-091107/


    i wonder what going to happen when ip address doesn't identity infringer comes to countries like US.

    Makes perfect sense technologically, i guess they should have sued a guy for stealing music after he died.

      since wifi can be open, how can they hold someone responsible based on IP address alone anyways?

              They know the ip address, but what else to they know? Let's say somebody hijacked someone's account, or someone else besides the owner is doing something on the computer. They can't really figure out who it is with just an ip address, can they?

                  that the point, american courts don't seem to realize this simple fact
                  over and over again they have come to summary judgements in favor of the copyright holder just based on the evidence that an ip address committed the download.

                  that should never be considered valid for the reasons you just listed. They need to produce way more proof to get a judgement. (even summary judgements)

                  this country court system realizes that, america should realize that fact some time in the future too.

                                  what does the "sniffer" tell you?

                                      they don't need any additional facts to award a summary judgment. those summary judgments happen because people don't show up to court to argue their case or defend themselves against the civil claim. all the plaintiff needs to do is make a claim.

                                      now fuck off.

                                              if i were to sue you because the sky wasn't red today, i would not win simply because you didn't show up.

                                              In many jurisdictions, a party moving for summary judgment takes the risk that, although the judge may agree there are no material issues of fact remaining for trial, the judge may also find that it is the non-moving party who is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.

                                                  ok.. i know you're a total fucking idiot and have a huge issue with authority and that is the true root of all your ranting, ... and that this is all futile.

                                                  if i sued you for damages for some event,... i.e. you hit my car and were uninsured, the court has the complaint, properly filed, a hearing is scheduled and you were properly served and you did not show... i would file a motion for a summary judgment. it would be up to the judge to grant it or not... and when its within reason and the damages are justifiable, it almost always is granted.

                                                  so shut the fuck up and crawl back under you rock

                                                              a judge has some responsibility to toss out something super fucking stupid, like yourself or the thought of a lawsuit against someone over the color of the sky. it would have no problems letting a copyright case though with IP address evidence since there could be additional evidence, the IP does go to your house and a 3rd party confirms it, blah blah. you can of course bring up your arguments like someone hacked your wireless account or whatever to give the jury doubt.

                                                              just because there is a albeit small chance that someone else could of done it, does not mean courts should throw out such a case if the person you are filing against does not show up. hell if that was the case nobody would show up. i know i would never show up to court if that was the case. there always is a small or even large chance that someone could of done something that i was being sued for and if i knew a judge would always throw out such cases. yeah fuck showing up.

                                                              ps i also agree with others. fuck off gideon. no clue who you are but you already come off like one of the rare over educated book smart ubber idiots who apply good facts with bad idea's and concepts. which is dangerous in such situations. you have the ability to confuse other idiots and the not so smart people to cling or agree to your concepts. reality is you need some real world life experience and less book smarts/written educational issues.

                                                                  They were asking foir £600.00 or something like that and some of the people they interviewed were fighting it in court. One guy even had his computer looked at by some specialist company that can find all sorts of shit on your computer even if its been deleted or formatted and they could not find any evidence of the game being downloaded to his ISP It was one big fuckup and it seems to have all disapeared from the news now.

                                                                          just because there is a albeit small chance that someone else could of done it, does not mean courts should throw out such a case if the person you are filing against does not show up. hell if that was the case nobody would show up. i know i would never show up to court if that was the case. there always is a small or even large chance that someone could of done something that i was being sued for and if i knew a judge would always throw out such cases. yeah fuck showing up.

                                                                          ps i also agree with others. fuck off gideon. no clue who you are but you already come off like one of the rare over educated book smart ubber idiots who apply good facts with bad idea's and concepts. which is dangerous in such situations. you have the ability to confuse other idiots and the not so smart people to cling or agree to your concepts. reality is you need some real world life experience and less book smarts/written educational issues.

                                                                          Get a fucking clue.

                                                                              if i sued you for damages for some event,... i.e. you hit my car and were uninsured, the court has the complaint, properly filed, a hearing is scheduled and you were properly served and you did not show... i would file a motion for a summary judgment. it would be up to the judge to grant it or not... and when its within reason and the damages are justifiable, it almost always is granted.

                                                                              so shut the fuck up and crawl back under you rock

                                                                              you didn't get any proof that my car was damaged, you don't have witnesses, your ownly evidence is that i was close by.

                                                                              i might have done it but you need to do a lot more digging before your allowed to win a summary judgement.

                                                                                  since you dont seem to get it... let me once more try to help you. i'll consider it a public service.

                                                                                  when you don't go to court to argue your side... you have no argument. hence, the plaintiff goes for a summary judgment. that's it. that's where it starts and ends. you didn't show up to prove that there are no witnesses, evidence etc... and i showed up to claim that you did it, the complaint was formerly filed. you were then formally made aware of the complaint and proceedings against you (time, date, location, complaint, identity of plaintiff),.. i followed the letter of the law to bring it to this point and followed all procedure... and you, as the defendant, without good cause, elected not to partake in the process and where then judged and ruled against in absentia.

                                                                                  you seriously have no clue what you're talking about and you are a rambling idiot. personally, i'm a bit disappointed in myself for even taking the time to address you and would usually leave that to similar idiots like robbie since he seems to have no issue sinking to your level and wasting his time.

                                                                                  i however, think i'll take my own advice and leave you to continue to make an ass out of yourself before the few remaining people who don't think your an abject retard (should there be any left).

                                                                                          This is about some few private persons who downloaded, but APG is not using much ressources on those cases anyway. They are focusing on more serious cases... Later, they also managed to block sites like pirate bay on DNS level here (a court decision), so it is kind of pointless to look at IPs anyway.

                                                                                              you seriously have no clue what you're talking about and you are a rambling idiot. personally, i'm a bit disappointed in myself for even taking the time to address you and would usually leave that to similar idiots like robbie since he seems to have no issue sinking to your level and wasting his time.

                                                                                              i however, think i'll take my own advice and leave you to continue to make an ass out of yourself before the few remaining people who don't think your an abject retard (should there be any left).

                                                                                              Moron the arguement is invalid on it face the higher court explictly ruled that an ip address is not proof of infringement

                                                                                              not only would it be an invalid arguement but it would be an ethics violation that could get a lawyer disbarred.

                                                                                              no competent judge would every say

                                                                                                          Get a fucking clue.

                                                                                                          You should have a little more proof before you force someone to spend a shit load of money defending themselves.

                                                                                                          ip address should not be enought, using your analogy that is the equivalent of suing me for the damages to your car without the only evidence being that a traffic cam caught me speeding 3 blocks away.

                                                                                                          you didn't get any proof that my car was damaged, you don't have witnesses, your ownly evidence is that i was close by.

                                                                                                          i might have done it but you need to do a lot more digging before your allowed to win a summary judgement.
                                                                                                          1. nobody is required to have a lawyer to show up and say not guilty, get legal help, or file a motion. Hell a lawyer is not even required to file a lawsuit on someone.
                                                                                                          2. Yes if you do not defend yourself, file motions back, or show up to have a case dismissed on the grounds you feel it falls under. You = lost lawsuit and pay.
                                                                                                          3. Civil suits are not the same as criminal suits, understand this concept. You may know a lot about copyright laws themselves and how they played out in the past. You seem to know nothing of how courts work.
                                                                                                          4. Even in your car defense which is more elaborate than what is required in at the opening of a lawsuit (again civil not criminal). You still could be sued in such a situation with someone having almost no evidence about you or your car. That is why you would file a motion for dismissal. If you did not, you did not excessive your own rights and fucked yourself. Hope you enjoy paying off your judgement.

                                                                                                          This thread just makes me happy. Was curious what your giant crack of weakness would be. Never thought it would be how the law really works. I just hope to god now that someone sues you and you do not show up on your beliefs on how shit should work.

                                                                                                                  2. Yes if you do not defend yourself, file motions back, or show up to have a case dismissed on the grounds you feel it falls under. You = lost lawsuit and pay.
                                                                                                                  3. Civil suits are not the same as criminal suits, understand this concept. You may know a lot about copyright laws themselves and how they played out in the past. You seem to know nothing of how courts work.
                                                                                                                  4. Even in your car defense which is more elaborate than what is required in at the opening of a lawsuit (again civil not criminal). You still could be sued in such a situation with someone having almost no evidence about you or your car. That is why you would file a motion for dismissal. If you did not, you did not excessive your own rights and fucked yourself. Hope you enjoy paying off your judgement.

                                                                                                                  This thread just makes me happy. Was curious what your giant crack of weakness would be. Never thought it would be how the law really works. I just hope to god now that someone sues you and you do not show up on your beliefs on how shit should work.
                                                                                                                  so your trying to claim that knowingly willingly and deliberately filing a false declaration about the validity of your evidence constitutes "following the letter of the law"

                                                                                                                  Moron the arguement is invalid on it face the higher court explictly ruled that an ip address is not proof of infringement

                                                                                                                  not only would it be an invalid arguement but it would be an ethics violation that could get a lawyer disbarred.

                                                                                                                  no competent judge would every say

                                                                                                                  again your talking about knowingly filing a false claim of action against someone, no compentent judge would support that

                                                                                                                  if the legal system was that fucked up i could just use the law to legally extort money from you, filing bogus lawsuit after lawsuit until you paid me because if you didn't show up just once i would automatically win.

                                                                                                                              did you read the post by pleasure he was arguing a summary judgement would stand even though the higher court explictly ruled that level of evidence was invalid proof of guilt.

                                                                                                                              your trying to argue that knowingly presenting a claim that you are guilty of copyright infringement because the ip address was assigned to that account, when the higher courts explictly ruled that was not adequate evidence is some how legitimate.

                                                                                                                              WTF.
                                                                                                                              we are not talking about an obscure case we are talking about a major news story that was syndicated to over 8352 sites . do you really believe judges are that incompetent.

                                                                                                                              this is why the need a triple damages counter claim for wrongful cases being filed, you guys are trying to argue in favor of deliberately filing bogus claims against people rather then do the necessary level of investigation.
                                                                                                                              Um most of us would have no clue that IP's could not be used and a higher court threw them out as evidence. Since you do know, you could show up yourself or fuck not show up and just mail in your answer with a motion to dismiss stating what the precedent was.
                                                                                                                              Yes I know ignorance is not a defense legally, but it is not really a crime either.

                                                                                                                              To make it simple to keep the whole process moving along I will break it down to a 3rd grade level.

                                                                                                                              1. Someone sues you.
                                                                                                                              2. You get served, or they file to go on without you present.
                                                                                                                              3. You are supposed to reply with your answer and any pre trial motions.
                                                                                                                              4. Plaintiff can respond to you answer and any motions. If so you repeat 3 and 4.
                                                                                                                              5. Eventually trial. If you skipped 3-4 or stop replying, and do not show up you loose. They proceed with sentencing.
                                                                                                                              The end.

                                                                                                                              So in your IP case, you get served. You answer the fucking plaintiff through the proper format paperwork. You would say, IP addresses are not allowed to be used as evidence according to this higher court and case number. You attach a motion to dismiss.
                                                                                                                              If plaintiff does not have a good enough answer to yours, the judge will throw it out. *nobody will go to jail unless you can convince the judge they do this often and know better, even then it is not assured.
                                                                                                                              Now the judge does have the option of hearing the case anyways. Really up to him/her but rarely will they unless the plaintiff has a damn good argument.

                                                                                                                              Get it now?

                                                                                                                              Havent you ever heard of people using the courts to just financially ruin someone and they know they will not win? Hell the FBI even said "You can beat the wrap but not the ride". Understand what that means?

The outfit came to this decision after it lost several court cases against alleged copyright.
                                                                                                                                  Read between the lines... they are sending the signal to the politicians that current laws are not good enough, and politicians will respond with new insane copyright laws.

                                                                                                                                  You really think politicians are ready to sacrifice billion dollar industries and western cultural imperialism, because some kids found a way to share pirated content with the average joes?

                                                                                                                                          To make it simple to keep the whole process moving along I will break it down to a 3rd grade level.

                                                                                                                                          1. Someone sues you.
                                                                                                                                          2. You get served, or they file to go on without you present.
                                                                                                                                          3. You are supposed to reply with your answer and any pre trial motions.
                                                                                                                                          4. Plaintiff can respond to you answer and any motions. If so you repeat 3 and 4.
                                                                                                                                          5. Eventually trial. If you skipped 3-4 or stop replying, and do not show up you loose. They proceed with sentencing.
                                                                                                                                          The end.

                                                                                                                                          So in your IP case, you get served. You answer the fucking plaintiff through the proper format paperwork. You would say, IP addresses are not allowed to be used as evidence according to this higher court and case number. You attach a motion to dismiss.
                                                                                                                                          If plaintiff does not have a good enough answer to yours, the judge will throw it out. *nobody will go to jail unless you can convince the judge they do this often and know better, even then it is not assured.
                                                                                                                                          Now the judge does have the option of hearing the case anyways. Really up to him/her but rarely will they unless the plaintiff has a damn good argument.

                                                                                                                                          Get it now?

                                                                                                                                          Havent you ever heard of people using the courts to just financially ruin someone and they know they will not win? Hell the FBI even said "You can beat the wrap but not the ride". Understand what that means?

                                                                                                                                          again not the point i was making pleasure was claiming summary judgements happen automatically just because you don't show up no matter how bogus the complaint, no matter if the judge knows the case law.
                                                                                                                                          we are talking about multiple higher court rulings which were well publized , so either the judge is incompetent or he is corrupt either way he would not stay on the bench long if he unilaterally ignored precedent.

                                                                                                                                                  In many jurisdictions, a party moving for summary judgment takes the risk that, although the judge may agree there are no material issues of fact remaining for trial, the judge may also find that it is the non-moving party who is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.

                                                                                                                                                  if the law worked the way you think it does, if you could deliberately hide facts (like the existance of the higher court ruling) and judge was forced to only judge based on evidence that was presented even when he knows about the coverup. The entire legal system would fall apart.

                                                                                                                                                  what would be the point of precedents if they only applied if presented
                                                                                                                                                  the appeals process could go on forever dragging the case thru an infinite number of retrials because the defendent "forgot" one case.
