Re: That's just cover
I know it's far too much trouble to RTFA, but anyway.
There is no change in copyright law. The threshold for bringing a prosecution has not changed. What a jury needs to determine guilt has not changed, either. The only thing that changes here is what a Judge can determine at the end of a trial, after the jury has returned a guilty verdict. A Judge is still free to determine what ever sentence he sees fit, but it can't be longer than 10 years.
"The proposed change is to make copyright infringement a crime with up to 10 years for NON commercial infringement."
No. That's not even wrong.
The word you missed here is "egregious". Which means "extraordinary", which if you're still struggling, means "out of the ordinary".
You cannot today be infringing on a massive scale, and turn around and argue that Daddy left you a nice trust fund, and that you actually run at a loss, and/or give away anything your operation earns to cat charity. That doesn't work, and nothing changes here either.
