[kictanet] Music Copyright Owners sue ISPs for allowing Kenyans to download content illegally

[Bernard Kioko]

Mark,

Infact you manage to steal from the neighbor due to lack of a fence
(firewall) so this law will build the fence. Hope that answers you.

Also the ISPs have not been sued. The High Court is being petition to ISPs
are named as the ones to respond to the petition.

To extend this flawed logic, shall we sue the fence (in this case the
ISP) for the actions of the goat thief?
