The developer of Winny software, age 36, was guilty, his fine was 15,000 dollars.
Wrong judgement. The judge of Kyoto distric court was unable to comprehend the meaning of the case. I am not surprised. I think the technic itself ought to be evaluated, how it was used is completely another matter. Law ought to distingish these two matters, but the judge judged from how it was used. It was used unlawfully, therefore the software must be illegal according to this judge.
We are surrounded by many convenient tools but these tools never be responsible for the crimes they invited.
