RIAA: Puppeteers Of The Government
Prison terms on tap for ‘prerelease’ pirates
[Local PDF, 17kB]
So the RIAA has once again bested all of us. Why go through the trouble of cleaning up their mess internally and stopping leaks of prerelease music, when it’s easier to control Congress and change the law?
Sharing one song on the Internet? Well guess what, soon you will have the choice of either spending 3 years in prison or paying the $250,000 fine or both.
The best part about this? Here is a quote from the article:
The bill’s supporters in Congress won passage of the prison terms by gluing them to an unrelated proposal to legalize technologies that delete offensive content from a film.
Ah yes, lets tack on this unbalanced punishment idea we have and sneak it into another law. WE ARE RIAA, ALL YOUR MONEY IS BELONG TO US!
