That was for being the original uploader/distributer/ripper... not quite the same as downloading... Also, he didn't make it hard for them to catch him... He virtually gave them his name and address...

If we detect unauthorized software, services, or devices, your access to the Wii Network Service may be disabled and/or the Wii Console or games may be unplayable.
Looks like you might be wrong there
this wont be bad for homebrew but will be bad for people that use homebrew, i mean stuff like USB loaders i can bet you pounds to penny's that not even 90% of people use that for games backups, and i mean only games backups. it will be bad for people who dont like buying music, but who does i mean i know people that haven't paid a penny for their music for the last 5-7 years probably and if they got caught they would be in big big trouble over music but the law should focus on whats important like real criminals harming peoples lives what does piracy do, just takes the huge company's not earn as much as they want to, but hey don't need nearly half of it to live a good life do they?
who agrees?
who agrees?
And what if everyone thought the same way so they get no money at all? And what about the smaller companies releasing content?mew512 said:
I really do not believe that people should be able to download the content for free, but I do think that the cost of music, and games are far too high currently. Of course, you will always get people who will download it, no matter how cheap it becomes, but i dont think the attitude of "They make enough money anyway" is an excuse.
But then again, on this forum, I'm probably in the minority who think this way.
the first thing the law will be used for is blocking uncontrolled news sites.
like these for example - posted so people in Australia & china can test - i'm curious!
http://whatreallyhappened.com/
http://www.rense.com/
http://iraqwar.mirror-world.ru/tiki-index.php
http://www.worldreports.org/
http://www.prisonplanet.com/
because the government is terrified of truth - any truth reaching the public.
such as the scottish labour party using childrens homes as brothels!!!

unauthorised software is not illegal as homebrew apps which do not contain any infringement of copyright, it will void the warranty but is legal as the wii console is mine to do as I please with. any illegal use will mean infringement of copyright, ie copy games
if I rented my console then yes I would be subjected to a different T&C, this has been discussed many times on this forum.
DEB is about downloading illegal content from the net, not about exploiting bugs within the console and or loading 3rd party apps which were made my an end user who did not charge any money for it.

nah its was greed and lots of cocks getting sucked
They work fine in Australia, because there is no blocking. It's all just hollow words by some politicians looking for support from a particular "family" orientated group.steve-p said:

@K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
