| Sharman should also sue for slander. RIAA has made it seem like KaZaa is only for trading copyrighted works, it's simply just a program for sharing files, legal or not. [text was edited by author 2003-09-24 21:51:34] |

Their basically saying that sharman made kazaa for the sole purpose of illegal music files, and that they are responsible for what there customers are doing, even though they have no control over their customers use of it. |

They are suggesting Sharman purposfully designed their network in a way where they would not know if copyrighted files were swapped and could not be held resposible for user traffic. Which they did a very good job at, by the way.
They never said Kazaa had no legitimate uses. |
