thoughts, lost and found
February 20
Sometimes you hear stuff that sticks with you. This week’s quote is without a doubt what Monique Wadsted said to a reporter during the ongoing Pirate Bay trial. “Oavsett lagstiftningen så är det inte tillåtet att tjäna pengar på andras upphovsrättsskyddade verk utan att betala för sig”. Which losely translated from swedish reads, “No matter what the law says, you’re not allowed to make money on other peoples copyrighted material without paying for it”. Come again, Monique? No matter what the law says? Errrm, you mean to tell us that we can’t look to the law to determine whats illegal or not?
