Hi,
Assuming this is to go after people who download and not people who made the pirate ebooks available... Silly question ... what keeps the accused from going out and simply buying old paperback versions of all of these books after the fact, and claiming they have already paid for the book? Unless you downloaded absolutely huge numbers of pirated ebooks, simply buying the book would be cheaper that dealing with this nonsense, wouldn't it?
I wonder how the courts would look at an illegal digital copy of an ebook you already own - as long as you do not give it away or post it for others?
It will be interesting to see how this turns out.
