    This is repported to be a sci-fi story just to put the frighteners up none payers, if yous can remember a few years ago DL took a old scotish couple to court for down loading ****, i think it was ARMY F*****S and they lost that claim big time it was on the news, if this ACS takes just one person to court and looses thats there future money spining scam screwd, there evidace is over a year old in most casses they have a time and date of the download and thats it. they dont no how long the connection was for, they dont no if you downloaded or up loaded all or part of the download, there letters are sent out in there thousands they are all template letters some times addresed as MR MIS MISS etc get real, ACS gold rush will come to a end and when they do take some one to court with half a brain who can defend them selfs, and when it dose there will be a lot of people sueing him for stress

    I also buy music but my point is what if YOU got your WIFI hacked and YOU had very little nolage of computers, and a 3rd party downloaded illegal music then YOU got the letter demanding £800.00 Should you take the rap and serve your time? go back to sleep with your DREAMBOX i think there is words what discribe people who think LIKE YOU - willy comes to mind

    This new law has turned the owners of Pirate Bay into millionaires.
    Here, for 5 euros a month you get a VPN connection and a masked IP.....and away yer go.

    No matter they do, they'll never stop it.

    no need to shout,

    1. the first case is a civil case yes i agree

    2. if you ignore the civil case they take you to criminal court , and it is there, if found guilty you will have a criminal record.

    3. have you had a letter explaining this?, if no, then you dont know the whole facts and have no argument.
