Наглость второе счастье
Jul. 14th, 2012 03:31 amШустрый американский юрист потребовал у провайдеров разоружиться перед партией раскрыть имена пользователей, якобы спиративших немецкий порнофильм, не дожидаясь разрешения суда. Поциэнт в итоге получил по рогам («The district court judge agreed that Stone’s conduct had shown “staggering chutzpah” and fined him $10,000 in addition to other penalties. That sanction was appealed and has now been upheld by the Fifth Circuit»), но не успокоился (несмотря на то, что апелляция не помогла) и встал в позу оскорблённой бляди:
“They just punted, and said you waived your arguments, so we have to affirm,” he told Ars Friday morning. “I’m ready for someone to take this up, this issue of copyright subpoenas in the Fifth Circuit. That’s really the bigger issue. I’m just going to move on from this whole sanction thing. I think it’s bullshit and I think it shouldn’t have happened. I’d rather move on with my life than be right. That’s what I’m going to do. We’re going to do some more copyright subpoenas, and we’re going to bring them before the district and see if they are accepted or denied and then bring them before the Fifth Circuit.”
“There is no commercially available service that can even take advantage of the top-tier bandwidth,” he said. “You don’t need 50Mbps down to use Hulu, Netflix, iTunes or anything. Who the hell pays for 50Mbps down? P2P file-sharers. That’s who pays. That’s on the Internet side, they’re making profits from those who want to file-share.”
