As you can see from previous posts, I’m a big supporter of copyleft like the GNU GPL. Well, the Supreme Court recently ruled that file-sharing companies can be held liable for their software infringing on copyrights if advertise the use of their software as being able to infirnge upon copyright laws. This article represents a pretty great opnion of how antiquated American copyright law is. It’s been built for corporations over the years, and will only continue to hinder technological development in the future.
