Thug Life: How the RIAA does business
Yesterday, the RIAA withdrew one of its many cases against legal file sharers, instead of facing the potential of getting its little legal nose spanked on the “making available” issue in front of a pesky judge. (This is the state of affairs where it can get file-sharing judgments against people without actually showing that they, you know shared files—that they just made files available.)
Details on that case, Warner vs. Cassin, here.
Today, the organization refiled the same suit against the same family, without telling the new judge it had withdrawn the old one.
