With Sinde Law in Place, Spanish Musician Asks People to Illegally Upload His Copyrighted Song

Billboard Magazine has an excellent story about Eme Navarro, a musician who has asked his fans to upload illegal copies of his new song, “Nobody’s Death.”  He then complains to the government under its newly enacted Sinde Law.  Billboard calls it “a strategy meant to logjam enforcement of the law and to require that the government pick and chose what cases to pursue, ostensibly in order to expose the law’s pro-industry bias.”  To date, Navarro has placed about 90% of the complaints the government has received.  Click here for the full story.
