Request that they send proof of guilt with the letter. Since that is impossible they will be f*’ed. If the send you something just tell them that your IP adress has been spoofed. Should shut em right up.

âI ainât no copyright cop,â ISP tells RIAA is a double negative which means the ISP is a copyright cop.

Too bad the big music corperations don’t just start buying up the big ISP providers and make arrangements with themselves.

If I receive a letter they can kiss goodbye to my custom. I will not be accused of something without due process; I am innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. Uk ISPs need to very careful, as they risk incurring the wrath of their users; we don’t like to be threatened or intimidated.

So let’s see, the RIAA’s “making available” bullshit is being discredited as a legally enforceable point in nearly all cases – they have to prove that actual file sharing has taken place, which they can’t do of course. This is now wrecking the foundation of their whole lawsuit extortion campaign; Jamme Thomas being a prime example, as a retrial is scheduled because of this very point.

Therefore, they try to quietly get around this problem by getting the ISPs to do their dirty work on the flimsy, discredited and most importantly, *illegal* “making available” claim. You know, when they succeed in getting the ISPs to do this for them (which I think unfortunately they probably will) they will sooner or later attack a rich lawyer – and he or she will have the means to take these bastards to the cleaners and stop them in their tracks.

That will be a good day for all of us that aren’t the RIAA or other Big Media crony.

i loooove Jerry Scroggin idea … wish more would do same
Charge the suckers $1,000 per instance and $1,000 per hour and see how they respond, if at all

Bell still keeps calling about once a month. As soon as i say i’m the admin for this account they say they will call later and hang up LOL … and they still refuse to give me their actual # where they calling from

All isp’s stopped forwarding letters to me as i sent them notice. Most were not happy at all.
That’s teaching them not to wrongfully charge ppl.

Will from now every company/person/other who thinks his work or property copyrights infringed can send letter to ISP asking to disconnect particular IP address assignee from internet? – There will be no internet if this happened!! I donât think riaa and big recording labels only companies involved in creating arts, music and other entertainment content.

There was an article in La Presse (French Montreal newspaper) last week about Videotron starting to forward letter from RIAA to their customer. Videotron is the cable company that has most of the Montreal island and it’s surrending area. They are own by Quebecor, big media company with TV station and newspaper like Journal de Montreal.

Videotron was specifying in their letter that they were not planning on doing more than forward the warning.
