[...] We kennen de auteursrechten maar al te goed – en alle rechtzaken die eruit voort komen. Een Amerikaanse Professor Recht aan Harvard vindt nu dat die copyright strijd eigenlijk een maat voor niets was. Ze hebben nooit geholpen – er zijn nu meer P2P file sharers dan vroeger – en een jeugd heeft eigenlijk geleerd de wetgeving aan zijn laars te lappen.
