There is absolutely no evidence that the growth in France was due to HADOPI. It's like saying that if a person empties a glass of water into the sea when the tide rises the action is responsible for the for the rise in water level. |

Here's an info graph that shows the before and after effects of Hadopi:
Not really as clear a trend line as Kali Yuga's post would have had me believe. And actually, revenue from music declined slightly in 2011 even though digital sales increased. Last edited by Ninjalawyer; 09-14-2012 at 02:09 PM. |

Note that parking tickets are given out on the first strike. If you reported your car stolen at the time, that will indeed be a strong defense. If you claim someone must have taken your car on a joyride, the judge will have to decide on your credibility. This definitely calls for the old "cite, please." |

$190 is ridiculously lenient. They are doing him a favor. If they extradite him to the US and leave him to the tender mercies of the **AA, he'd be paying $600,000 for sharing 12 songs.
