A South Korean court of appeals has ruled that users, not websites, should be held responsible for copyright infringement. This comes from a lower court ruling where two brothers were aqcuitted for running a website called Soribada where millions of users could log on, chat, and swap music files.

The Yangs... denied any wrongdoing, saying their service only provides private channels of communication and that they cannot control or monitor users' activities.

See, some countries actually get it.
