1 edit | RIAA stupid again ... I have it in my power to manipulate my packets to
appear from any IP I choose without the need of
any kind of proxy server.
Those who don't have that capability can easily
hide their IP by using a proxy server or connecting
to a nearby open wireless connection which happens
to be just about everywhere these days.
Now with all that said, the point I'm actually trying
to make is that RIAA has no way of knowing who is
actually connected based upon the IP alone and
information from ISPs is likely to be useless too.
It's very likely to instead get them to falsely
accusing people right and left.
Honestly, I think both the ISPs and the courts out there,
should all disregard RIAA. Meanwhile, RIAA needs to
wake up and take a reality check because they obviously
aren't living in the real world.
As for sending out letters to ISP customers, I'm sure
every ISP is really going to be ready to jump to help RIAA
after all the crud RIAA has been throwing out at ISPs.
**** DEEP TONE OF SARCASM ****
None of this is to say I support file trading or piracy
in any matter because the simple fact is that I don't.
However, I do sincerely question RIAA's methods trying
to cleanup that activity and they really do have a lot
to learn. |
