A NEW LAW saying that artist can have a right to be handled over the names of file shares for claiming their right in disputes on copyrighted material, is under way. The Moderate Party (m) member of parliament, Karl Sigfrid is going in the opposite way, and claims that the society shouldn’t criminalizise the young generation, that don’t can understand the relevance of the excisting copyright law. Sigfrid wants to make the law designed in an other way. According to EU leading lawer the internet service providers aren’t forced to handle over the names of file shares and it’s up to every member country to have their own method. Mr Sigfrid wants to abandon the old copyright law completely, to have the judges recourses focused on more important types of crimes than judgeing private file sharers that copying for private use. The technology has taken several laps ahead of the immaterial law now he says. The copyright law shouldn’t give the artist a situation of monopol that severely restricts the freedom of speach and the distribution of goods. Some Nobel Prize awarded scientists has also expressed theories and thoughts that point in the same direction.
