Sorry, but sharing copyrighted information is a criminal offense.

Nonsense. Copyright violations are not criminal unless they are done
for financial gain or exceed personal copying of more than $1000 worth
of material in any 180 period. No one in the history of the country has
been prosecuted for non-commercial copying. While that irks the RIAA,
it is still a fact of life.

I've never heard that "loose" an interpretation of the copyright laws,
however....

many of manuals he's after (military) are For Official Use Only (FOUO)
and aren't for general dissemenation to anyone asking for them on the
internet.

Read all about it he

My point is - we are talking about 2 different subjects here. The
portion of USC you cited is unrelated to DoD regulations concerning
classified material --- and before you say it, FOUO IS a valid
classification of DoD documents. It's right above UNCLAS.
