At first, I came here to talk shit, but it turns out that the music companies are one of the few sectors more evil than telecoms. I'm pulling for Cox.

I'm not for the US gov or politics getting involved in legal issues, however the music industry must lose this lawsuit no matter what.

The precedent it will cause many people to be effected that wouldn't be normally, AND also forces a punishment that isn't equal to the crime.

We live in a world that very much requires internet to do anything, this judgement would force people to go offline for potential IP(Intellectual Property) issues. That punishment is exponentially higher than what the crime actually was. It's life ruining.

This isn't the same as "oh you sold modified game hardware to people so you can no longer touch that game system", this is "you may have stole music, so therefore you are losing your ability to do anything digital". Even if the accusation is true, considering how much of the world is digital now, and how few ISP options are available in areas due to legal constraints, this is not a fair punishment to give. A fair punishment is a fine and a ban from being allowed to hold that producers IP. It's a severe overstep to remove someones access to the internet for an IP violation and I fully agree it is not the responsibility of the ISP

Honestly, this is the digital equivalent of doing a house arrest for someone stealing music from a store. It isn't right.

Broken clock I suppose

I don't need cox to win, I just want the music labels to lose

I’ve never wanted to see Cox get through successfully as much as I do now.
