Giù le mani

Richard O’Dwyer is a 24 year old British student at Sheffield University in the UK. He is facing extradition to the USA and up to ten years in prison, for creating a website – TVShack.net – which linked (similar to a search-engine) to places to watch TV and movies online.

O’Dwyer is not a US citizen, he’s lived in the UK all his life, his site was not hosted there, and most of his users were not from the US. America is trying to prosecute a UK citizen for an alleged crime which took place on UK soil.

The internet as a whole must not tolerate censorship in response to mere allegations of copyright infringement. As citizens we must stand up for our rights online.

    Questo è il modello americano di democrazia, ampiamente esportato in Iraq, Afghanistan, eccetera. Vi stupite ancora?

    E quando la Corte Suprema Iraniana chiederà la nostra estradizione per un panino con la porchetta, notoriamente proibita dalla Shari’a …? Che si fa?
