The law was rejected as unconstitutional by the Constitutional Council.29 (It was subsequently changed, introducing a sham trial, to make it acceptable.) A similar law in New Zealand was withdrawn this year after public protests. The European Parliament recently voted against imposing similar injustice on the whole European Union, but the EU's weak form of democracy does not give Parliament the final decision. Some would like to go even further: a UK member of parliament proposed ten years' imprisonment for noncommercial sharing.
