Can you not see the hand writing?
Ok, so for the last two years or so I've said that the laws on copyright infringment would get tougher and tougher and guys like tic said I was wrong. Well, the I was right, the laws have grown in scope, in their application, and in the penalties applied. In fact they have banckrupted more than one company.

I said the content owners would in fact start suing individules, again everyone said I was wrong. Sorry but no, they have sued individules.

I said the "safe harbor" argument would NOT protect the likes of Napster or Kazzaa, (and they didn't even host the infringed content) everyone said I was wrong. Again I was spot on.

So here we are today and everyone is saying I am wrong and nothing is going to happen to YouTube. I am willing to put a wager on it, how about all of you saying I am wrong???
