From the tone of many in this thread, it seems that people don't understand that non-commercial copyright is not a crime, but instead is a civil infraction -- hence why Thomas was not arrested, and not tried in a criminal court.
But the copyright industry certainly wants everyone to believe it is a crime. Looks like it is working.
