A college has two responsibilities: remaining fiscally feasible and providing continuing education to students. It's very easy for AA exec's to recommend things that don't cost them money but bring money in - and if this isn't a clear case of an Act that should be shot down I don't know what is. And colleges will never completely deter P2P. Direct Connect is a favorite among colleges because people within the LAN can create hubs that are accessible to only people on the school LAN. No AA interference - and if the hub operator is smart enough they can even prevent school administrator's from noticing it (short of the massive intranet usage). Not many schools come to mind that care about the amount of LAN traffic - only the external traffic is 'metered' so-to-speak. -- Don't Let Them Take Your Rights!

Republicans, Democrats, Greens, Neoliberals, Libertarians, whatever should all disagree with this act - and if they don't then you can sure bet they've got their hands in someone else's cookie jar. -- Don't Let Them Take Your Rights!
