How is using Murder, the taking of another's life, in any way a suitable
analogy to Copying a file/song/film without permission? They're completely
different ballparks and to do so is a form of equivalency - more like
equivocation, as I mentioned - because the harms are so drastically different.
It only takes one Murder to be convicted of a Criminal offense and sent to
Prison - there is a significantly higher bar[1] before Copyright Infringement
is remotely similar to the nature of the reference point. I mean, I get the
basic underlying philosophy being argued but I disagree with it. Talking about
Copyright and Murder in the same sentence, I will reiterate, is rhetorically
off-base.

A much more reasonable line of "analogy" (which it wasn't) would have been
talking about Theft and Copyright Infringement have disparate parameters on
the books, and therefore expose the over-reach of Copyright. I frequently
sense that because I'm not "pro-freedom" in the definition of those who
disagree with me that I'm somehow on the other side. I'm most definitely not
and it is quite tiring to feel such derision when I'm not a Partisan - I'm a
goddamn Independent.

I must admit I was confused to see xeer being posted to HN. Its interesting to
contemplate the unique history of Somalia and the Somali people and how it
fits into the greater African jigsaw puzzle.

I think the article is slightly misinformed however, the Sharia legal and
judicial instrument which was adopted by the Somali people after the growth of
the Muslim faith in the region was another system of justice and social order
that arrived well before attempted European colonisation.

On a tangent, interesting things are happening with the Somali federal
government now with respect to the telecommunications industry. Not only
or purely criminal matter.
