I'm a lawyer, and I'm telling you this doesn't apply to criminal offences! The final conviction and sentencing of any illegal act will be based on its social harm. So what harm did your behavior cause? How much trouble does it cause to the national GDP growth? Don't overestimate your ability, it's not that easy for you to destroy socialist construction by yourself. So do what you have to do. Don't believe any threats from the police or the Internet Supervisory Committee. Never mind what they say, study hard and think behind closed doors. Asking for money is not fatal. I haven't given it yet. It will be easy to go to court then. For this kind of private prosecution case, the prosecution should provide its own evidence. You just have to insist that you only used that software once. And then lose a little money at most. And that is, even if the court awards you money, don't be afraid. Come and refuse to implement it and see who can afford it! It is profitable to ask the court to handle affairs in China, depending on whether the owner of the Internet cafe dares. If the lawsuit comes down, it will cost at least hundreds of thousands. If you are barefoot, it is strange that the court and lawyers will not drain him! If necessary, you can file a counterclaim. Now you can bring a lawsuit to the court or report to the public security organ, so as to damage your personal freedom and infringe on your body, and point out that you have been threatened and intimidated! The police are most likely to come, they will be useful!
And if the other person pushes you too hard, you can also say something cruel to scare them: tell them not to bully others too much, or they will kill you, or you will kill all of them, the whole family! Look who's a tough guy!
Young man, you haven't left the society. You don't know what this society is like, but please remember one thing: never be mainly! As long as you have breath, be the master of your own soul!
