See above, done because I’d do the same for anyone, liked or otherwise. But thanks for the thought.

Cheers!

As much as I think that hegg is an asshole, this may cross a line.

(I’ve edited out Hegg’s personal info posted in this comment —- Jon)

That goes for MPAA movies, and BSA software!

“Power to the little guy” is being sarcastic, “reader’s write”.

Yup, I was. Well spotted lol If you think about it though, the bastards at the RIAA likely do think like that and I was just making a cutting parody of it.

example : Criminal – If the glove dont fit, ya gotta aquit.

: Civil – If the glove dont fit, his hand have must have gotten fatter or the gloves have shrunk. hes still guilty.

Also didn’t Kazaa paid over 300 millions$ to the RIAA for past and future damage?

I just had a thought this women has been accused of using a system owned by the accusers themselves… and they won’t shut this milking cow down.

but yea why not make them pay 2 billion dollars next time, i mean whe need to set an examble! screw her live and her 2 kids!

They’ve now proved that they don’t really need much evidence to get you, thankfully. Next time someone gets a Settlement Offer, they should just take it and shut the fuck up. Innocence or potential innocence is no excuse, it just inconveniences the music industry when trying to force their business model on the consumer; they must prevail.

Who gives a shit whether it was actually her, a friend or some hacker that did the downloading? It’s completely irrelevant. The IP address pointed to her internet account, so she should be made to pay and she has.

Her appeal will fail, just you watch.

Frankly, the award should have been for $440K or more, not the paltry $220K… and she should be made to pay every damn dollar of it.

“I think she thought a jury from Duluth would be naïve. We’re not that stupid up here,”

…because I think that this decision proved just the oppisite- that the jury from Deluth is VERY naive, and doesn’t bother to follow the facts.

Whether or not her IP address was spoofed or not, that fact that IP addresses do not equil a person, was completely overlooked, as well as the fact that most of the evedence against her was cercumstantial. And to top that off, what ever happened to the bit about “proven beyond a shadow of doubt”? If the jury felt that the RIAA’s case was prooved beyond a shadow of doubt, then I am afraid that they are a bunch of naive people who are likely to believe in anything they are spoon fed by athority.

Just my Two cents

Just demonstrating a point.
I could just as easily use that name on Kazaa, or ANY other
service I want.

Imagine someone using a name that they have seen a lot of, to DL kiddie porn or engage in other
illegal activities.
What if they use the name David b ?

This trial shows that no proof is necessary to convict.

” “I think she thought a jury from Duluth would be naïve. We’re not that stupid up here,” he said. “I don’t know what the fuck she was thinking, to tell you the truth.”

It also shows that a jury in Duluth can, indeed , be THAT stupid. This guy just proved it.
That’s what the fuck I think.

The harddrive she turned over was the harddrive that was installed when suit was filed. Replaced 2 weeks before the suit.
That was the testimony from the Geek Squad or whomever tech person.

Wish I was a juror on a case like this.

funny enough most viruses are made in US not china/korea/taiwan etc. that has been thinked about before. also US dont have good protection, and most email spam comes from US from hijacked home users.

so its not so unlikely as you guys (??? included) might think its actualy very possible and could have been the case most dont know that their computer is doing things in the background due to a virus/trojan/malware/adware/whatever you name it.

im looking forward for more info
