Last week Russia introduced its brand new anti-piracy law that will see sites blocked at the ISP level if they fail to respond swiftly to copyright complaints. The law, which critics say is overbroad and likely to cause collateral damage, is opposed by big companies such as Google, local search engine Yandex, Internet resources such as Wikipedia and thousands of website operators and users.... ....As soon as the papers are filed the churchs founders will file a lawsuit against the anti-piracy legislation that came into force August 1. They will do this on the basis that the law, which restricts copying and sharing, is an insult to Kopimists. But according to lawyer Victor Naumov, separation of religion and state in Russia means that its unlikely that the complaint will achieve much, although an appeal could be made to the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation.

Holy forbidden fruit, Batman! Someone took a bite from the sacred Apple in the garden of copyrights. A damnable sin!
