    The New Zealand judge in Kim Dotcom’s case has referred to the United States as “the enemy,” with respect to intellectual property policy.

    Speaking at the NetHui conference in Auckland last week (organized by the “Fair Deal” coalition, a group of Kiwis opposed to the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty), District Court Judge David Harvey said: “We have met the enemy, and he is the US.”

    I still love that name..... "Dotcom". Thinking of changing my surname to "PCHF" - would love to hear people try and pronounce it :D

    Perhaps my clever retort to Hengis was over your head.

    I knew you would. I am reading some of Harvey's available decisions. I may order a copy of his book internet.law.nz – Selected Issues

    I really like his allusion to Pogo.

    Get a Maori dictionary as well, as they use a lot of their phrases in conversations, written text, etc...
