In text 1 Peter Sunde is telling us his attitude to the media industries willing to evolve like every other kinds of industries. And when somebody like him are trying to go up against them, he tells a story which is very close to Hollywood’s own mafia films, where corruption and false play is a part of the daily diet. He believes that copying movies is not wrong, and that moviepiracy should become legal. He also makes it clear, that he thinks people and organizations who oppose the legalization of movie are at fault, and therefore should change themselves. Peter Sunde also urges people to fight against the copyright violation law, and to stop letting a corrupt industry control the internet.
Opposite Peter Sunde, Wendy Cope intensively fights copyright violation, first of all by writing and publishing her article ”You like my poems? So pay for them”, but also by writing on the subject ”copyright violation” in an attempt to stop the spread of the ignorance of the copyright law. In her article she points out different reasons for there to exist a law protecting author’s and moviemakers from being robbed their work and money, and why internet piracy is wrong. One of the reasons and arguments is that many author’s make a living by selling their work. Not buying an author’s work and casually sharing it would prevent the author from making their living, because she believes that internet piracy must have an effect on the books that are being sold. In the end, though, she admits that it is difficult to stop internet piracy from hapenning.
