ORDER FOR RICHARD'S EXTRADITION -12th March 2012 by Fax

Approximately less than 5 hours before deadline our solicitor received a fax of the Home Secretary Theresa May's order for Richard's extradition see below. You will see that in order for Richard to be shipped off to the US just 4 lines of text and a rubber stamp is all that is required. The actual delivered letter arrived  7 hours after the deadline had passed. Of interest is that this is the very first and only piece of communication we have received since this whole extradition nightmare began. I find that a despicable way to treat someone.

  1. Julie take a look at Pinterest which is a US based social media website that's taking the internet by storm and has wealthy backers. It's business model is for its users to pin links to images that they like and see on the internet to pinboards. Many of those images are copyrighted material and Pinterest are storing those images on Amazons servers. Take a look at Pinterest's T&C and you will see that they are doing far more than Richard was doing.

  2. Hi Juila

    I read about this yesterday and I'm completely stunned that a foreign corporation is able to extradite people so easily with the main focus on producing a show trial in order to prop up a outdated business model. For something that is not illegal in the UK (see the Onik case) and DPP quoted as "not being serious enough" to warrant UK prosecution (quite correctly - copyright is and always should be a civil case) - this is simply unbelievable. I'm totally disgusted with Terasa May - her total lack any kind of responsibility or backbone to stop this, what exactly are the people running this country doing?. Hope the appeal goes well and as it should put a stop to this utter nonsense.

  3. Hi Julia
    Just heard the news. Its absolutely outrageous.If we allow this to happen what next? If a person can be extradited sharing links to web sites can a person be extradited for selling pirate copies? where does it end? Teresa May...your decision to sign this order ultimately might be more damaging to your career than a young talented students future. Good Luck Richard keep positive you have a lot of support and it will grow!
