Despite referring to intellectual property *theft* Lord Triesman, the parliamentary Under Secretary for Innovation, Universities and Skills "said that the government had no interest in "hounding 14-year-olds who shared music", it was intent on tracking down those who made multiple copies for profit."
(I leave it up to others on Slashdot to comment on the "Innovation" in Lord Triesman's title.)"
