AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 493 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Ben Hermans/Hyperion on 28-Apr-2002 09:51 GMT | In reply to Comment 487 (Bandaren): Please don't read it.
I think maybe I should start a correspondence course about EU intellectual property law. I could make big bucks, it seems.
The interest seems staggering.
Just for the record: running UAE on an Amiga is not illegal, running it on a PC, Mac or non-Amiga licensed or branded hardware is because you are required to make a copy of the Kickstart.
Even if you own a legal Kickstart, this is not allowed because it doesn't come under any of the exceptions to the "copying is not allowed" rule.
As UAE basically incites you to break the law, the product itself is illegal.
Please don't intermingle US and EU law, citing US case-law is not always helpful to determine the scope of EU law and vice versa. |
