1 edit | Hmmm... I think the RIAA has the right to protect the content to which it as rights to. I don't see anything wrong with that. I think P2P users (who obtain copyrighted content) get angry because they are so used to getting what they want without paying for it that when someone stumps on their parade all hell breaks lose! Piracy has been a problem for a long time...maybe even before I was born which was in 1988. People always tried (and still try) to get away with distributing content they don't have the rights to. It's been a long going problems, it's just the fact that since content can be shared so freely and really fast compared to hand to hand piracy it's harder to control. As for the part about them forcing ISPs to be cops...I think that's a bit over board. Yes, they are trying to protect the stuff they own but if they really want to stop people, they should do the dirty work themselves, not hire a ISP. RIAA = Music Corporation, meaning they sell music! ISP = Internet Service Provider, they provide Internet. Neither of these should do anything except just that. RIAA provides music and ISP provides Internet. My 2 cents.  |
