Re: The reason behind lumping them...

I am not advocating for the illegal downloaders but it seems that these letters amount to nothing more than extortion by the force of legal intimidation. I do not think these copyright holders would like it if the tables were turned on the them and internet users set them up as new revenue stream by baiting them by placing false files that do not contain any copyrighted material. An accredited research should conduct a controlled study by placing files that contain the titles of copyrighted material on a P2P network to cull how many false positives resulted in a threatening legal letter being sent. These false files would simple contain a review of the copyrighted work which under the fair use doctrine would permit the use of such a copyrighted works title which would be contained in the false files title.
