Enact fair legal penalties for copyright infringement. 50 years for MegaUpload's Kim Schmitz is ridiculous.

Created by M.T. on January 27, 2012

The fact that Kim Schmitz is facing 50 years in prison for MegaUpload doesn't make an example for justice, it trivializes it. There are rapists, murderers and other societal predators serving sentences that are half as long. It's an insult to people who were victimized or lost loved ones to make such a mockery of our legal system for copying 1's and 0's. Pathetic.
