Wouldn't the end-user be able to police what is/isn't legal to d/l in their own area? Like... if you want to read a Bible on an Open Source device, a certain ethical standard would be presumed.
While the hope is that the user has the ethics to make a wise decsion, the truth is that its easier said than done towards having that information at hand.

I'm making a note of this as a future posting at MMM, with a few copyright bodies that might be able to lend assistance for such items.

Maybe as a part of installing Katana/Rapier that this kind of warning would be a part of the application. Sure, it doesn't stop the person from doing whatever, but then ignorance cannot be blamed.
