RIAA can spy on you
 
http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/...012103X,00.asp

A court has given the RIAA the ability to make ISPs give them the names of any person that downloads a lot of mp3s.
In the article it says 600 songs in one day.
Now I know that not too many people do that, but this is not just the 600 songs in one day. It is against our freedom of privacy.

If they get a warrant it is not violating any rights, but otherwise, the ISP needs your permission first unless otherwise noted in the User Agreement.

RIAA=Retarded Idiots of the A$$ Association

I feel violated as well. And I'm sure in the near future they will drastically reduce that number of d/led mp3's to about 30 a day...

They are trying to make us stop downloading songs from the net. They stopped Napster and are now trying with Kazza and the other p2p programs.
They want all the money from sales to go to them and only them. Do you think that the artists get a lot of the money from the album sales? I don't think so.

That is what you can do with the Record industry. Just laugh at them trying to stop us from downloading files on the net. They can always sue a company for allowing us to download files. But you know there will always be another one that comes along. NApster is gone, but now we have limewire, Kazza, winMX and many others. So RIAA can try and try all they want, we will always find a way to get files from the net that they don't want us to.

they can't stop FTP...or IRC.
