completely ridiculous video supporting the idea that illegally copied and burned cd's have links to drug and gun sale, and even terrorism....
riaa, bite my shiny metal ass!
riaa putting kids on a police bus.
yes, our dear friends of the riaa are going after deceased people who, according to them, still download music illegally.
every now and then they even sue grannies who do not own a computer, let alone know how to use one.
but this time, they have reached a new low. they have sued a woman dead since december 2004.
although the woman in question, gertrude watson, has been dead for about 1.5 years, and her daughter has even send them the death certificate, the riaa persisted, saying she had downloaded over 700 music files, under the name of “smittenedkitten”.
the riaa has now dropped the case, but is pursuing other cases, pressuring those accused of pirating to settle the case out of court.
several people now being sued do not even own a computer. however, the riaa does not seem fazed by this, and is continuing legal action against about 235 defendants.
although their tactics of “proving” that people are involved in file sharing are certainly not flawless, the riaa is convinced they are on the right track. “do the crime and you will pay the fine or do the time,” the riaa says on their website.
undoubtedly, they hope that most people sued will settle out of court.
