UPDATE Sorry, it's a hoax... that's going to propvoke quite a debate I expect...J. Attali (essayist and author of 50+ books translated in 20 languages] has taken a tough stance on the "hadopi" law under discussion in the French assembly, that proposes (between other things) heavy penalties for illegal downloading (like the suspension of your line in case of observed illegal downloading) ; saying that it was ill-adapted to the reality of today.. etc.
he announces in his blog that within the next 30 days he'll post on his blog all his books in .pdf for free downloading, as well as all his next books... hm; courageous.
