Craig Murray (bio sur wikipédia), ex ambassadeur du Royaume Uni, s'est retrouvé accusé de violation de droit d'auteur pour avoir publié en ligne des documents obtenus auprès de l'administration via le Freedom Of Information Act, et ce pour documenter certains faits mis en avant dans son livre "Murder in Samarkand: A British Ambassador's Controversial Defiance of a Tyrannical Regime Within the War on Terror" qui traite de la dictature en Ouzbékistan, je cite le synopsis :

Craig Murray was the United Kingdom's Ambassador to Uzbekistan until he was removed from his post in October 2004 after exposing appalling human rights abuses by the US-funded regime of President Islam Karimov. In this candid and at times shocking memoir, he lays bare the dark and dirty underside of the War on Terror. In Uzbekistan, the land of Alexander the Great and Tamburlaine, lurks one of the most hideous tyrannies on earth - one founded on cotton slavery and brutal torture. As neighbouring 'liberated' Afghanistan produces record levels of heroin, the Uzbek rulers cash in on massive trafficking. They are even involved in trafficking their own women to prostitution in the West. But this did not prevent Karimov being viewed as a key US ally in the War on Terror. When Craig Murray arrived in Uzbekistan, he was a young Ambassador with a brilliant career and a taste for whisky and women. But after hearing accounts of dissident prisoners being boiled to death and innocent people being raped and murdered by agents of the state, he started to question both his role and that of his country in so-called 'democratising' states. When Murray decided to go public with his shocking findings, Washington and 10 Downing Street reached the conclusion that he had to go. But Uzbekistan had changed the high-living diplomat and there was no way he was going to go quietly.

Le droit d'auteur (peut-être Craig Murray est effectivement un contrefacteur) est ici utilisé pour museler le débat politique, qui dans le cas du charmant monsieur qui terrorise et massacre tranquillement avec l'appui des démocraties occidentales me parait plus que nécessaire.
