| sounds like Sounds like another way for them to mis-use the data they collect about there users. I wonder how they will be identifying the supposed illegal content and what recourse the user will have to fight the notification. I'd love for these jerks to get caught using DPI and have the pants sued off them. This kind of content monitoring is a slippery slope. |

The big difference between the RIAA and organized crime is companies represented by the RIAA give massive amounts of money to Politicians. In otherwords the RIAA is a crooked organization with money. -- I am quite sure now that often, very often, in matters concerning religion and politics a man's reasoning powers are not above the monkey's. - Mark Twain in Eruption |

In otherwords the RIAA is a crooked organization with money. How is that any different to organized crime? A Judge nailing them with a RICO charge and the Politicians don't matter. Even a civil RICO charge.
Anti-abortion groups lost a RICO case in the SCOTUS and can be sued under RICO now by abortion clinis for "protesting" near their property. The RIAA is a prime target for a RICO lawsuit. Lawyers have no problem suing other lawyers.
The U.S. AG could easily used RICO against Madoff's Ponzi Scheme and didn't.
But, since the SEC screwed up, investors are suing the SEC over lost money. The SEC investigated Madoff 10 times and found nothing. Considering one investor talked to Madoff, saw NO documents, and thought is was crooked in 2002 and invested nothing, that makes the SEC look incompetent to me. |

He was then smart enough to use some of that money to purchase Kennedy families legitimacy. -- I am quite sure now that often, very often, in matters concerning religion and politics a man's reasoning powers are not above the monkey's. - Mark Twain in Eruption |
