He made the torrent, he's hosting the torrent, he's probably seeding the torrent at this moment in time.He's encouraging piracy, not giving away the game. You may have the physical files, but you don't have the rights to own them.
Seriously, it's just a giveaway labelled as 'pirating' - It probably would be pirating if getting it from another source.
I understand that. That's what everyone believes. That's what I believe. All I'm saying is, that's not how the law will see it. All the more reason to take down PIPA, no?
How will taking down PIPA (a proposed bill that is not in effect) change the current laws that you say make this illegal?
If it is illegal now, PIPA failing will not change that in any way, shape, or form.
