If this was not the case, we'd already be knee deep in the same crap that the much smaller ISP's in Australia are involved in.

Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon are not as easy to push around. But that is the only thing saving us all from a disaster at the hands of the RIAA.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462869 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:36:43 EDT Re: I got it. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462820 nitzan : I stand corrected. ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462820 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:31:26 EDT Re: I got it. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462676 cornelius785 : what do you mean the MAFIAA will lose money? they'll just find someone to extort money from (whoops, i mean sue) to ensure they stay in the black.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462676 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:10:32 EDT Re: I got it. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21462351 nitzan :

You're just wasting time and energy.

And money - for both sides.

Sure, The MAFIAA can afford it - but the ISPs cannot afford to lose money on legal fees. Eventually they'll just resort to giving up and letting the MAFIAA have what they want.. "just don't sue us".

Real mob: "do what we tell you to or we'll break your legs"
MAFIAA: "do what we tell you to or we'll break your wallet"

Same difference, same end result. (eventually)

Governments need to step in and stop this by outlawing frivolous lawsuits like this.

Your definition of failing in this matter is different than mine. The fact that they are EVEN ABLE to sue is a "win" for them! Perhaps they may "loose" the ruling in this case, it still won't prevent them from targeting the next guy... and sick their lobbied bulldogs after them!

It's kind of like spear-fishing! The hungry one is going to make a LOT of misses, but eventually he'll hit the jackpot... making his efforts worth wild! Rinse, and repeat!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21459894 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 20:15:04 EDT Re: I got it. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21459747 Doctor Four :

Hmmm, that sounds a lot like a mobster, erm, rackateer, erm, the **AAs business (ya ya that's it) suing a government for letting illegal CD/DVDs being carted over the highways.

And this is why the **AAs are often referred to as the MAFIAA.

In some ways this action by them is remarkably similar to the French SPPF suing Limewire, Morpheus, Vuze and SourceForge. And equally likely to fail as well.
