1C on The Pirate Bay, Activists ask for help

We know a person who entered history as the first person convicted in Russia for using BitTorrent, violating copyright. Sergei Avram was in court in Rostov-on-Don, on charges of illegally distributing pirated software. Despite the fact that his actions were committed absolutely without personal gain, he was found guilty and received a sentence of 12 months in prison.

Avramov was accused of using uTorrent for illegally distributing part of expensive 1C software, which allows automating routine business operations. It is likely that Avramov upset the wrong businessman by choosing this unusual program.

Now, some people from Russia who subscribe to 'anti-copyright activists' are looking for those who would like to join them in order to demonstrate their protest against Abramov’s sentence. * .torrent file running software 1C is now available on The Pirate Bay , with the signature :

“We, a group of activists from Russia, ask you for help”
')
The report is dated 04/04/07, when, for the first time in Russia, bangs were convicted for distributing files. Sergey Avramov created torrent software of the Russian company “1C”.

We think this is only the first step, after which new repression will follow in the direction of the distribution of files. From our point of view, the appropriate way to relieve the pressure of companies is to create a new torrent on an independent server outside of Russia and participate in the distribution of the link

This step will show the futility of repressive actions against the distribution of files on the network.

We ask for help in the distribution of the '1c_enterprise' torrent. ”

The * .nfo file attached to the distribution contains the following message, which would be nice to see in the future much more often as soon as the BitTorrent siders approve of including this message in their own releases. In addition to the description of the release itself, it is reported:

Dear, "distributor",
We hope you are happy with what you download.

Do you know that probably very soon the opportunity to share files will be in the past?
Media corporations all around the world are lobbying and putting pressure on national governments to change legislation, allowing corporations to pursue file sharing services more effectively.

We do not agree with their ideas. that piracy is theft. We believe that theft is to deprive the owner of property. When a copy is made the original remains.

The proposed changes to the law will change other laws that protect your privacy. These changes are not proportional.

We hope in changes in the law holders.

If you're not interested, then we apologize for using your traffic to spread empty words.

Thanks for attention!

If you agree with us, please add the file to your distribution! We have enough to make a change!

It is unclear how many .nfo files will turn this large anti-torrent matter, but spreading this information to the masses in this way will of course help inform the millions involved in file sharing.
