Евроидиотите смятат да криминализират и нарушения свързани с разпространяването на материали при които не е налице пряка или косвена връзка с мотивация за печалба - нещо което до момента се смята за дребно гражданско престъпление в повечето страни.
Засега използването на безплатни файл хостинги, подобни на rapidshare е безопасно. Най-много да изтрият файл при докладване за авторски права, но няма да дадат кой го е качил и кои са го свалили без съдебно решение. Такава процедура може да се приложи най-много при детска порнография.

EU's Secret Plan to Imprison Filesharers, Ban Free Speech About Piracy Leaks
Britain has announced its opposition to the plan
A UK Intellectual Property Office representative made an important revelation to online publication ComputerActive, commenting, "ACTA should not introduce new intellectual property laws or offences. Instead, it should provide a framework to better enforce existing law."
That stance is very significant as the EU and U.S. governments, at the behest of copyright holders in the music and video industry, are pushing a treaty called ACTA which allows its member states to adopt not only fines, but prison time for those who fileshare.
Details of the plan to criminalize filesharing just leaked thanks to a citizen advocacy group La Quadrature du Net. The document, found here [PDF], is entitled "ACTA Chapter 2 Criminal Provisions".
The new proposal would criminalize "infringements that have no direct or indirect motivation of financial gain" -- which currently would be considered a petty civil offense in most countries.
