Arguing with gideon is like wrestling with a pig.
You get muddy, and the pig enjoys it.

Don't bother.


As for the RIAA, they just decided that the individual lawsuits weren't having the deterrent effect they'd hoped for, so now they're going to work with ISP's to send warning letters and if necessary shut off internet access for people who won't stop after receiving a warning.
This seems to be a much better strategy IMO, and they have willing partners because ISP's aren't happy about the amount of bandwidth used and network congestion caused by torrent and other p2p traffic.
