Judges Rule File-sharing Software Legal

The 9th Circuit opinion affirms a lower court ruling that the creators of file-sharing software applications cannot be held liable for illegal actions by their users. Specifically:

we conclude that the defendants are not liable for
contributory and vicarious copyright infringement

Vicarious liability for your customer's actions who could be anywhere in the world... I'd hate to see the actuarial calculations for an insurance policy to protect against that.
