When you steal a man's livelihood and reputation, it hardly matters to him if you run over a dog speeding away from the scene of the crime. Let's put the Saxon libraries on an ad-supported site that sells pornography and fake pharmaceuticals. We'll be sure to put your name on the hyperlinks next to the pictures of the big breasts and the fake Viagra. It's theft. If the lawyers want a different venue, they can have one. But I do think it better to find ways to protect property than to destroy servers because weaseling is more important than property if it wins a debate on the Internet. len -----Original Message----- From: Michael Kay [mailto:mike@s...] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2012 8:38 AM To: xml-dev@l...

It affects how and where cases are tried, what standards of proof are required, what evidence is acceptable in court, what the penalties are for wrongdoers, whether or not prosecutors consider it in the public interest to prosecute, ... you name it. You might as well say there's no difference between speeding and murder.
