I don't see the similarity of a person posting pictures of self on facebook, and a criminal enterprise knowingly and willfully generating revenue through copyright crimes.
Really, I don't. Even if you ignore that some countries have extradition treaties which spell out exactly at what level this can happen (btw, US and Iran don't).
But if you love analogies, I'm sure I can come up with one even more ridiculous, that would show my case.
- grecy 14y agoMy analogy is to show that extradition for breaking the law of country A while being in country B is completely ridiculous. We're all breaking the laws of countries we're not in this very second. Maybe before the internet it was easier and made more sense. Now it's completely insane.
- disordinary 14y agoIn some countries showing skin is illegal, just like in some countries posting a service that can be used for piracy is illegal, the analogy is correct - excepting the lack of extradition agreements.
