did the dude not think he would get caught? You can't steal from that many people and not eventually get busted. As far as sharman goes, hey if they don't know what their SHARE FOLDER is and they're on a P2P network well, don't be an idiot.

My mother in law works at a law firm and one of her fellow employees had a 13 year old who the music companies went after. Lucky for them they had several good attorneys (her bosses) but they still got the shaft. They ended up having to settle and it cost them like 20,000 dolllars. I guess they wanted to make an example out of him.

jon you butchered this story. Kopiloff was the criminal, not a victim.

Is it not what the RIAA is doing? Abusive and unwaranted search and seizure in people computers?

“If the charges of mail fraud and “accessing a protected computer without authorization to further fraud” hold up, Kopiloff could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, says CNET”

While I do not condone his criminal activities; RIAA is arguing that their MediaSentry “investigators” are not guilty of “accessing a protected computer without authorization[...]” because their victims made their musiccollections accessible on their computers, so logicly speaking must either get this criminal a free pass for using limewire or the DOJ must file charges against the RIAA and their buddy MediaSentry aka. SafeNet.

But I doubt that will happen
