MainPage - IPRED wiki

IPRED wiki - The European Union appears to be tightening laws relating to copyright and piracy. But by failing to differentiate fair use and piracy, does this directive endanger important civil liberties? Will this create a "Prosecution Paradise" where the law becomes unbalanced - it becomes too easy to jail people by pretext because everyone is guilty of something. There is a name for that kind of authority. It is totalitarianism by blunt instrument. All kinds of law suits may whittle the law down to human proportions, but what kind of environment do civilians suffer in the process?
