Spain Outlaws Peer-to-Peer Filesharing

Spain passed a law that makes it a crime to fileshare, which seems completely stupid and difficult to enforce. I guess their plan is to go after ISPs for enabling filesharing, but even that’s gotta be hard to follow through on.

The law also introduces a small tax to be levied on all blank media — from a blank CD to mobile phones and even a memory stick.

So lame.
