However, they do crow about how much money they're going to extort from the targets of there scheme in this article in an adult-industry trade magazine: http://www.xbiz.com/news/115144 The sad thing is, I know the folks at Xbiz and consider them to be decent journalists. However, they'll reprint crap like this from ACS - never mentioning that the scheme is illegal - leaving readers with the impression this is all on the up-and-up. The "adult industry" is so desperate to forestall its self-inflicted demise due to lack of innovation and respect for customer diversity and desires, that it will listen to anybody who promises it what it wants to hear: namely, that the times of easy money, no real competition, and no need to innovate will keep going on forever if they just let this or that scammer pick some of the last few dollars out of their pockets.

Interesting that the cops will gladly kick down the door of some kid who has been accused - without any genuine proof - of noncommercial filesharing, but these organized extortion schemes - run by attorneys - are magically immune from legal prosecution. Naturally, the selective enforcement of "the law" such as this is not even a subject of comment in today's mainstream culture. Just how it works, is what we're expected to believe. Some of us, unfortunately, still remember that "the rule of law" trumps political expediency or the drive of pure greed.
