The European Parliament has stated that it does not feel that anyone who shares files, without profiting from it, should be consider a criminal. Their decision came as a row has erupted between Internet Service Providers and the music industry. ISPs have been told to disconnect the internet of someone found to be illegally sharing files. The disconnection will not happen until after three warnings.

However, the European Parliament stated that even though it is committed to the fight against the illegal pirating of software, they will not arrest anyone who does so without the intention of making a profit.
