Joerg said:Well, Dutch law seems to be, ahem, strange. AFAIK in pretty much any
other Western country you'd be required to hand over the stolen goods.
So if someone steals your car and sells it, can the new "owner" really
keep it when the Rijkspolitie stops him and finds out?
If the new owner can proof he bought the car in good faith, he can
keep it. This is about limiting the number of victims to a crime.
Besides most people are insured against theft over here.
No, he is the victim of a criminal act committed by someone else.
A crime he had nothin to do with. So why should he be punished? Its
not like in the war where they shot a few innocent people to set an
example.
If you find the silver bullet in how to disable illegal copies I am sure
they would offer you a lucrative job instantly. But then you'd have to
move and learn Bavarian![]()
There is always the lmlicense manager. Not ideal but it does work and
has become an industry standard for a reason. Probably too expensive
for Cadsoft or the 'not invented here' syndrome got in the way.
