1 answer:

3 0

<span>Due to the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act (ACPA) that was enacted in 1999, it has become difficult for media companies to sue file swapping organizations. While some have been successful, the ACPA throws up many roadblocks. Some companies that offer domain name registrars have privacy services that allow the true owners of the web sites to remain hidden which makes it increasingly difficult to identify cybersquatters. Prior to filing a lawsuit, a trademark owner must request a subpoena to find the real and true identity of the website owner. Due to the immense cost of these filings and court costs, most of these disagreements and issued end up settling out of court.</span>

Capital punishment is a very controversial issue around the world. Many countries that once supported the death penalty now find

enyata [817]

Answer:

I do not support the use of the death penalty. If we punish someone who, for example, committed murder by killing them, how are we any better? Murder is murder, no matter what the circumstances are.

Besides that, there have been many cases when people got sentenced to death for crimes they didn't commit. Unlike other sentences, the death sentence can't be reversed. If they got sentenced to life in jail instead, they could've gotten released once the proof of their innocence was found. But with the death penalty that is not a possibility. Murder of an innocent person in such circumstances is no better than the murder someone gets sentenced to death for. And in those cases, no one gets punished for the mistake that cost someone else their life.
