"...William Golding once said “nobody knows nothing” (this may well be one of those quotes which has been edited over the years to sparkle, but the essence is there)"
Also seems to have been re-attributed as well ;-) William GOLDMAN actually said this, in his book 'Adventurers in the Screen Trade". And to be correct, it was "Nobody knows anything".
After 7 years of fruitless lawsuits, all that's happening is that the RIAA has realised that ISPs are easier targets. Instead of spending money suing people, they're now simply spending it lobbying government to remove due process and allow the RIAA to mandate that an ISP aplly sanctions against a user based on flimsy IP evidence. Sad thing is, governments seem to by buying it.
