Not the Israeli law.  In Israel it's still legal to link to illegal
things, I think (though the lionetwork site precedence may overturn
this. Must ask Haim Ravia).

HOWEVER, Linking to illegal stuff in OTHER countries, mainly the USA but
probably also some of the EU, Aussieland and other places, may be a
criminal offence. IANAIL (not an International lawyer) - maybe consult
the EFF or groklaw.

oh yeah, on that note, have an optimisticly happy new year. May this
year see the easing of patent laws in particular (which country will be
the first to brave abolishing them completely?) and IP laws in general.
At the very least, may the DMCA and its copycats (copy acts?) be deemed
unconstitutional and undemocratic.

I'm not even willing to DREAM about an Israeli constitution yet, lawful
Members of Knesset or a secular state. I'll save those for another
decade :-/
