Okay, then why don't you provide a list of independent films that are unreleased in the UK through refusal of a rating despite suitability for audiences? Put up or shut up. Simples!
If you'd been paying full attention, you'd have seen I was saying that since people don't know if the source file is illegal, they operate under the assumption that it isn't, and innocent infringement isn't an offence. Therefore, if the work is in the Public Domain of the country in which it's being downloaded, that download is always legal. As for the age of the article, I went back through the list once, meaning that the articles I read should have been no more than a week old. Is it my fault that this site seems to be broken?
I would argue that what you say makes no difference to the legal status of the monkey selfie. Camera traps are deliberately set up by humans, so there is some merit to the argument that there is human authorship of the images captured by them. On the other hand, the monkey selfie was taken by an macaque that picked up a camera that had been momentarily put aside, so it's clear that there was no deliberate human involvement in its creation. Simples!
From the linked article: 3. Person copying and copy source in US, copy destination in Australia. 4. Person copying and copy source in Australia, copy destination in US. 5. Person copying and copy destination in US, copy source in Australia. 6. Person copying and copy destination in Australia, copy source in US. 7. Person copying in US, copy source and copy destination in Australia. 8. Person copying in Australia, copy source and copy destination in US. 3. Legal. 4. Illegal. 5. Legal. 6. Illegal. 7. Legal. 8. Illegal. This is simply because it doesn't matter where the copying process took place, the important thing is where the copying process was started, especially since no one can know whether or not what they're copying is in the Public Domain or a legally purchased copy. This also holds true for Europe, BTW, which has a term of life + 70 just like Australia. Simples!
You took it as sarcastic [...] As you also took somebody's statement out of context. If you'd read the whole comment from the beginning, the sarcasm inherent in it would have been as obvious to you as it was to me, and I'm also anti-misandry.
On average, web page load time is 150% longer than in the US, despite greater population density and half the traffic volume. The above statement clearly shows your obvious confusion. Care to restate? You know, being that pages load within three seconds on my Android, never mind landlines. All the competitors are connected to BT's switches except Virgin, so they're just reselling the same service. FTFY. You see, 'connected to' isn't the same as 'subsidiary of', so all of the true competitors I listed above are free to sell the same service for less money, which is why they're the competition. Now, are you gonna finally admit when you're just plain wrong, or are you gonna keep arguing with someone who has multiple cognitive disabilities and is still smarter than you?
Whatever our unelected 'government' decides it is, clearly. Didn't you hear about the bullock that was arrested for possession of an explosive gas (methane)?
Nice strawman. The fact is, the Internet in the UK isn't faster because it's unregulated; actually, it's very much regulated. No, the Internet in the UK is faster because there's more competition so no company dares to be crap because it knows we have plenty of competitors to receive a better service from. US nationwide (except rural areas) broadband companies: AT&T Comcast Time-Warner UK nationwide (except rural areas) broadband companies: BT EE Fuel Plusnet Post Office Sky TalkTalk Virgin Media And that's just the landline offerings, so I think my evidence is rather better than... Oh, you didn't offer any, did you? Like I said, strawman.

In most scenarios involving 911 you're probably going to want the police to be able to quickly find you, especially if you don't know where you are or don't have the time or state of mind to explain. Not so much the police, but the paramedics once the police have done with me!
