An MIT student accused of copyright infringement has been documenting her struggles with the RIAA. Upon trying to negotiate her settlement, a representative told her “the RIAA has been known to suggest that students drop out of college or go to community college in order to be able to afford settlements.” Is this justice or insanity?

In other news, as of yesterday, more than 18,000 internet users have been sued by the RIAA for distribution of copyrighted materials/songs. So how much did winning these lawsuits add up to? More than $100,000,000.
