> Copyright law

who cares. you can still pirate if you so choose (at the risk of your data if you do it on the same PC).

you pirating is basically taking part in a distribution, the host simply doesn't do it with a company but a nick (digital loophole*). but the distribution happens no less and the license of right-to-use never covered this to begin with.

all these cases are digital loopholes: companies being able to shut down servers and forcing people to move on.

we need these laws.
