Study finds file sharing helps small films | PirateTimes

Study Finds File Sharing Helps Small Films September 16, 2013 · by Michael Wartenbe · in Pirate Topic Within the debate of the rights of copyright versus our privacy and freedom lies another debate, examining whether file sharing is even a danger to the industries. The MPAA offers an undoubting “yes”, forming the basis for its endless take down requests and attacks. Some scholars agree with the MPAA’s sentiments, while others do not. Digging a little deeper, however, researchers at the Munich School of Management and Copenhagen Business School argue these contradictory results are due to treating movies as a homogeneous unit and find interesting results when dividing movies based …

Ethics of File Sharing – The Shallowness of Most Accusations | PirateTimes

Ethics of File Sharing – The Shallowness of Most Accusations September 4, 2013 · by Michael Wartenbe · in Pirate Topic Those who are open to others about their file sharing are keenly aware of the criticisms that are thrown at us, many times without much thought.

New Zealand Just Got Saner Software Patent Laws September 2, 2013 · by Hugo Ferreira · in Pirate Topics After five years of debate and lobbying from major multinational software patent holders, some sanity has been brought into New Zealand’s software patent system.
