- pluma 10y agoIt's a "happy accident" for the content industry, though. Can't figure out who fileshared your mp3? Just sue the person running the public WiFi. There have been several attempts to sue Freifunk (basically a public mesh WiFi using tunnelled connections) participants this way too, luckily so far that hasn't resulted in a single "victory" yet.
