Copywhat ?

Copyright has been a hot topic in the world lately.In the median days of the web there was tv episodes and movies.It was pretty awesome and one could just youtube or google search their favorite program.Of course the respective companies cracked down on such things but in an “tasteful” way.Fast forward a couple years and its been perverted.The average guy making a montage video of his girlfriends favorite songs would be sent a cease and desist message.What was supposed to be a way for people to communicate and connect to eachother has become a virtual wonderland that can be approached but behind you there will be 7 different “people” with shotguns aimed at your skull.One recent case of this is with megaupload and its creator kim dotcom.Now I loved megaupload it provided me with many thing that i could not get without paying international shipping but this was able to happen because of the USERS had uploaded the files not the host.Mr.Kim’s home was raided I repeat raided like if he had been making meth or planning a coup d’état.He was later sent to jail on the charges of copyright infringement.Soon after the FBI had seized the website and now it’s seal appears instead.The whole web was rattled by this,many uploaders deleted their usernames and file hosting sites like megaupload were shut down in fear of the consequences.But the piracy is still running strong because of the users.Its only a matter of time until a whole task force kicks open your front door just because you downloaded a 10 second clip of quantum leap.
