Bert- read my fucking lips. The point is WHERE the alleged crime is committed. Copyright only exists under the laws of each separate jurisdiction. US copyright only subsists under US law, and unless and until the UK becomes a colony of the US US law does not apply in the UK and if you don't like it, send a gunboat. Copyright in the UK subsists by virtue of the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 as amended and the acts restricted by copyright are those there specified.

Ignorance may be explicable. Wilful ignorance should not be tolerated.
