Re: 3 Strikes and You're Out
The problem is MPAA would just send out warnings without proof. Historically their tactics have been very shady. |

I agree, which is why there has to be an independent organization and an appeals process. I absolutely would not support a 3 strikes system if the MPAA/RIAA/BSA dictated directly to the ISPs who "they" felt were offenders via DMCA letters or whatever form they chose.
There would also have to be strict guidelines around what is considered infringement and what isn't. |

i do not support the MafIAA.. they are wrong, wrong, wrong.
i do not believe downloading music/movies/etc is considered to be pirating.
because downloading pirated songs actually would encourage people to buy the CD's if the MafIAA didn't fuck up.
we need to explore beyond what's at the top 40 play lists and allow other artists to be heard.
remember, i bought more cd's as a result of me downloading the song from napster before it got ruined.
»phoenixlabs.org/pg2/ is also good protection.

I wish they would release it for Vista. I always use PG2, but sometimes I am on my laptop which has Vista and I'm not able to. |

There is no such thing an independent organization. And who is going to pay for it? The U.S. government(us) so the independent organization can become corrupted by any interest group or the MPAA so the independent organization always sides with them? |

So the three strikes thing should be struck down.
OR should have a clause that says the MAFIAA has to pay any wrongly accused/mistaken notification victim say $100,000.
That may cool their jets.
