Well that's not 100% correct. p2p is not illegal. It depends upon what you downld or share. If I share pictures of my holiday, that's not illegal & nor is it copyright & nor in breach of most countries' laws. There's lots of non-copyright material on the network (eg: creative commons), problem is, most people seek what "is" copyright. But you're right about location. Different countries & even different states have different laws about this issue.
