Re: It Figures!
Doesn't matter, it's not just flash card burners, anyway.
The point is they are going after people who aren't even pirating anything, and they are willing to drag people into court that they have no evidence against---- EVEN PEOPLE WHO DON'T OWN DTV systems!
Sure, the judge dimisses the case, but the people get stuck with legal bills and that doesn't excuse the harrasment.
And if you do happen to have DTV equipment, then you're *really* screwed, because they won't let up at all.
These lawsuits are no different then as if someone tried to sue every gun owner claiming they owned something that could be used to commit a crime--- even if there was no evidence the legal gun owner ever had committed a crime.
It's just WRONG.
