An anonymous reader notes that TorrentFreak is reporting: "French record labels have received the green light to sue four US-based companies that develop P2P applications, including the BitTorrent client Vuze, Limewire, and Morpheus. Shareaza is the fourth application, for which the labels are going after the open source development platform SourceForge. ...Putting aside the discussion on the responsibilities of application developers for their users activities, the decision to go after SourceForge for hosting a application that can potentially infringe, is stretching credibility beyond all bounds." SourceForge is Slashdot's corporate parent.

Pana la urma... ce treaba are SourceForge aici? Ca SourceForge e doar un repository pentru aplicatii open source.
In plus... francezii s-au trezit cam tarziu, nu credeti? OK, daca materialele originale ar fi low-cost, nu cred ca ar mai fi cineva tentat sa distribuie diverse materiale prin softurile de mai sus. Refuz sa cred ca daca ar fi mai bine inteles motivul principal al pirateriei electronice, si daca s-ar actiona in aceasta privinta, fenomenul nu ar putea fi diminuat.
