US ?the enemy? says Dotcom judge

By Hamish Fletcher, Monday Jul 16, 2012

The judge due to hear Kim Dotcom?s extradition case has referred to the United States as ?the enemy? in a discussion about copyright law.

District Court Judge David Harvey has heard parts of the case against the Megaupload founder, who was arrested with three colleagues in January after a request from the United States. The FBI has accused Dotcom and others working at Megaupload website of the world?s biggest case of criminal copyright violation.

Judge Harvey is not due to hear the internet mogul?s extradition case until next year but made his views on copyright known during the launch of the ?Fair Deal? campaign last week.

The campaign is opposing any changes to New Zealand?s copyright laws that may form part of the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement.

The TPP trade deal is currently being negotiated?.?
