Everyone Reads Slashdot Now

Arthur writes "Transcript of Trial - Day 4, MPAA v. 2600 NY; July 20, 2000:

Q = Mr. Garbus, attorney of 2600.com
A = Ms. Reider, Chief Operations Anti-Piracy, MPAA, witness of plaintiffs

"Q. How did you know to go to the LiViD website, download the material you downloaded in October and November?
A. I'm an investigator. I followed a trail there.
Q. Tell me what the trail was.
A. I read about it on Slashdot.""

That's all it takes to be an investigator? Maybe I should try out for the job.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
