I agree that it is scandalous that only 1 in 40 deputies bothered to turn up for the debate. Whether or not the law is "legal", I'm not qualified to judge. Flawed though this law may be, I'm just happy that at least one country actually seems to be trying to take the huge problem of illegal downloading seriously. Whether the law is "good" or "bad", the French government is to be congratulated for realising that this is something that does matter, while others are just turning a blind eye to it.
