Re: Controle op gedownloade games
ik heb hem afgelopen vakantie gewoon mee genomen.
wat mafo al zegt het is een risico :-k
het is klein maar aanwezig.
Ik stop de kaart altijd ergens anders, dus niet in het apparaat als we door de douane gaan ( voor wat het waard is).
Normaliter zullen ze je niet controleren...
Maar als ze iets vermoeden, of als ze speciale opdrachten hebben kan ik mij voor stellen dat ze alles controleren....
en dan kun je het kaartje stoppen waar je wilt dan zullen ze het waarschijnlijk vinden.......
en volgens mij heb je meer problemen in nederland dan in het america....
denk maar eens aan buma stemra :(
hoe dit in de vs is weet ik niet het is maar een gevoel.
Er waren dit jaar overigens meer kinderen in het vliegtuig met zo'n kaartje....

Re: Controle op gedownloade games
De boetes op piracy van software zijn niet mis anders.
If sued for civil copyright infringement, the penalty is up to $100,000 per title infringed. If charged with a criminal violation, the fine is up to $250,000 per title infringed and up to five years imprisonment.
What proof do we need to show that you have purchased our software?
Anti-Piracy requires positive proof that all software has been purchased to demonstrate copyright compliance. The best documentation substantiating authorized purchases include approved purchase orders, invoices, customer receipts, and/or cancelled checks. Other documentation provided by the company may be acceptable. Normally, original media (CD-ROM's, diskettes, manuals, etc.) are not accepted documentation.
The Law in the United States
Software is automatically protected by federal copyright law from the moment of its creation. The rights granted to the owner of a copyright (ScholarWare) are clearly stated in the Copyright Act, Title 17 of the US Code. The Act gives the owner of the copyright "the exclusive rights" to "reproduce the copyrighted work" and "to distribute copies ... of the copyrighted work" (Section 106). It also states that "anyone who violates any of the exclusive rights of the copyright owner ... is an infringer of the copyright" (Section 501), and sets forth several penalties for such conduct. Those who purchase a license for a copy of software do not have the right to make additional copies without the permission of the copyright owner, except (i) copy the software onto a single computer and (ii) make "another copy for archival purposes only," which are specifically provided in the Copyright Act (Section 117). The license accompanying TopScore Pro® does not allow additional copies to be made outside of Title 17; be sure to review our End User License Agreement carefully.
Software creates unique problems for copyright owners because it is easy to duplicate, and the copy is usually as good as the original. This fact, however, does not make it legal to violate the rights of the copyright owner. The unauthorized duplication of software constitutes copyright infringement regardless of whether it is done for sale, for free distribution, or for the copier's own use. Moreover, copiers are liable for the resulting copyright infringement whether or not they knew their conduct was in breach of the law. Penalties include liability for damages suffered by the copyright owner plus any profits of the infringer that are attributable to the copying.
It has always been illegal to rent unauthorized copies of software. Concern over the fact that the rental of authorized or "original" software frequently resulted in the creation of pirated software led Congress to enact the Software Rental Amendments Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-650). This law prohibits the rental, leasing, or lending of original copies of any software without the express permission of the copyright owner.
