[ubuntu-uk] Movie pirate forced to use Windows

[Rob Beard]

Hi folks,

I have just seen an article on The Register about someone who was  
sharing a copy of Star Wars via Bit torrent before it was released.

It turns out he uses Ubuntu but has now been given the option of  
either not using his PC online or installing Windows to use the court  
ordered monitoring software.

Don't get me wrong, he was sharing a movie illegally, but being forced  
to run Windows just so the monitoring softare will run seems a bit  
harsh.
