I think it's important to remember that non-commercial distribution is a civil matter, _not_ criminal. That is no small distinction as it determines who will bare the cost of enforcing these rights. Criminal matters are funded by the tax payer.
- joshAg 15y agois non-commercial production civil or criminal? i assume commercial production would primarily be a criminal proceeding , though the victim is also able to sue for damages and reimbursement. Is it the same for non-commercial production?
