No criminal liability for copyright infringement in the absence of intention to sale

Russian IP ombudsman, Anatoly Semenov, proposed to eliminate criminal liability for copyright infringement for cases where person infringed copyright in software without intention to sell or distribute it. In other words if person has installed pirated software on computer and does not disseminate it or does not sell it to other persons, such person should not be held criminally responsible.
