Court Orders Expert Opinion in P2P Leecher Mod Case

In 2008, a German woman was wrongfully accused of distributing a pornographic movie via eD2K. She was using eMule in conjunction with what is commonly known as a ‘leecher mod’ – an addon to file-sharing software which stops the client from uploading material back to the Internet. Using a mod like this means that no offense of distribution could have been carried out.
