Using A Torrent Makes You Criminal?
Downloading illegal stuff is illegal. Do not share what you download distributing is illegal
India has always been a free haven for accessing torrent websites, but it would now appear that
even accessing these comes with a warning: three year jail, and a possible fine of Rs 3 lakh. In the
past, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has issued orders for blocking of websites, over
illegal and pirated content, but new ones keep popping up.
b. distributes;
c. carries out public performance (with respect to a play, script, novel, song,
etc.);
e. translates;
f. creates adaptations
of any work without the permission of the person who has got the exclusive
right to do any or all of the above acts.
This discussion does not apply to computer programs. We can always stretch
the law and prosecute by misusing. So if given a choice, download a movie, but
don't share it amongst your friends.
