Secondly, the identity of the named plaintiff is meaningless. What matters is who financed and orchestrated the litigation. Does anyone really believe it was NOT the industry associations?

Re: Re:
"Major Hollywood movie studios have filed another round of lawsuits against file sharers it alleges to have distributed copyrighted movies over the Internet."
As has even been noted by Mr. Beckerman, an attorney who is holding the movie and music studios' feet to the fire, that the true parties bringing suit are the studios themselves, and that the terms "RIAA" and "MPAA" are being merely used as a shorthand notation...and not to suggest they are the ones bringing these lawsuits.

Re: lobbying laws
The problem with the RIAA/MPAA and government is not with the lobbying, it's with politicians grabbing for power in a private arena - the real root of all this crap is the government putting its nose where it doesn't belong (but this all really has nothing to do with this post).

Re: Re: Finally
People need to take more responsibility regarding where they work and what they do. If you made your income from one of these organizations and have been laid off - then you got what you deserved in my opinion. Next time care a little more about what kind of organization your dedicating your time and skills too.
