And here... Its to simple to say, that there is nothing new, that only the old rules have to be applied. People say, "the internet isnt a lawless space", but this isnt true, if you look closer. People try to do appropriations, to repeat, what they allready did own in the old analogue world. Digitalisation of things and networking, what this means, we will see some day. See the war about napster etc, what is the difference between this and analog "private copying" ? Nothing, even if it is the end of traditional copyright. For exemple.
