Dead duck software does not and never will condone piracy, however it is disgusting that media companies can be given what is essentially free reign to dictate what uk citizens can and cannot access with their internet connections.

"Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined.

Progress in our world will be progress toward more pain." - George Orwell, 1984
