Yeah, exactly. It's totally ****ed up. We just can't win. The RIAA doesn't give a **** about our rights...all they care about is money...

I mean, give me five minutes in photoshop and I'll make you a "screenshot" of Kazaa with www.whitehouse.gov's IP address listed over and over on it. Can't an expert witness cause this evidence to be thrown out quickly?

See? They don't even win their cases legally. It's corruption down to the very core.
