This is insane!! The jury obviously doesn’t understand technology!! Sorry but I have to rant about this!!

———rant———

“did pirate 24 copyrighted sound recordings, and ordered her to pay $222,000. “…/// she didn’t neccesarly pirate them…. she shared them! and 222 thousand dollars for 24 fucking song??? wtf!!..///

Investigators for the plaintiffs provided jurors evidence that the IP address (a number assigned to a subscriber connected to an Internet Service Provider), a modem Media Access Control address and Thomas’ username all link her to the pirating.”…/// do you have any idea how easy it is to connect to someones wireless access point?.. of course it will show the same IP address and the mac of the modem..!.////

“Making IP spoofing work is extremely complicated. Pretending to be somebody else at the same time they’re on the Internet is almost impossible to carry out.”…….///// BULLSHIT!!!!..////

“All fingers point at Jammie Thomas in this case,” he said, noting her user name, IP address, Modem MAC address, pass-word-protected computer, and the songs in the shared folder matched her musical tastes.”../// OK.. even if she did it… 22 THOUSAND FUCKING DOLLARS FOR SHARING 24 FUCKING SONGS!!!!...///

I could go on……  but I won’t./ 

Just read it… and try to understand the gross injustice done to this mother of 2 and the twisted way the record industry is attacking the very people who buy their crappy music.. of which hardly any money actually goes to the band…I really hope the courts put a stop the RIAA tactics.

Fuck the RIAA! ../ Wicked
