Well, I suppose it’s possible that Duckworth is a lawyer, and it’s also possible that the statement could be construed as morally right and wrong, in which case it’s not giving legal advice, but the statement itself is still preposterous. Thousands of dollars extorted in a non-negotiable “settlement” does nothing to educate or empower people about right vs. wrong.

“What we’re trying to do is educate people and empower them with the knowledge of what is wrong and what is right.”

It’s really hard to believe that these smug, patronising hypocrites have this much arrogance, isn’t it?

“What we’re trying to do is educate people and empower them with the knowledge of what is wrong and what is right,” Duckworth said.

Assuming that this was actually said, isn’t this like giving legal advice? without being a lawyer?

“What we’re trying to do is educate people and empower them with the knowledge of what is wrong and what is right.”

I like that little tidbit. And prey may i ask, who exactly decides what is right and wrong? Shouldn’t that be the general public, rather than corporate spin doctors?

To presume they can dictate what is right, and what is wrong is just the kind of mentality that will destroy their business completely. They are again desperately trying to assert control over how/what the masses consume.

Congratulations RIAA (warner, emi, vivendi, sony bmg etc), you are now one step closer to complete annihilation.
