Don’t Want To Be Sued By the RIAA?
According to a couple of reports circulating the Internet the last couple of days, and bolstered by recent RIAA lawsuit losses, the best way to defend yourself against a lawsuit from the RIAA is to open up your WiFi network.
From CD Freaks:
Earlier this month, the inability to prove who actually did the file sharing caused the RIAA to drop a case in Oklahoma and now it looks like the same defense has worked in a California case as well. In both cases, though, as soon as the RIAA realized the person was using this defense, they dropped the case, rather than lose it and set a precedent showing they really don’t have the unequivocal evidence they claim they do.
Of course, I don’t know many people who are too keen on sharing their Internet connection with all their neighbors, but this is an interesting development in the ongoing RIAA lawsuits that sheds even more negative light on the RIAA.
