DOES IT COUNT AS AN EXAMPLE IF NOBODY NOTICES?: The main justification for the RIAA's continued extortion-like use of writs against ordinary people is that it's meant to "educate" the public. But last week, another 717 lawsuits were filed, and barely anyone even mentioned it. Since the prospect of suing everyone who does dubious things with music on the net is a mathematical impossibility, that the court cases haven't reversed the use of unlicensed music online, and they're no longer attracting enough attention to count as an anti-piracy marketing campaign, why on earth is the organisation proceeding with its vindicitive campaign? A lousy idea remains a lousy idea, even if you carry on with it after it's been proved to be a lousy idea - something, surely, Geri Halliwell's career demonstrates time and again.
