Analysis of RIAA vs Princeton Student

Posted by timothy on from the dan-peng's-empire-of-evil dept.

An anonymous reader submits: "Joe Barillari, a computer science student studying under Prof. Ed Felten, posted an analysis on his blog of the lawsuit filed by the RIAA against a Princeton college student for running "Napster-like" networks. He argues that the case doesn't quite live up to its contributory infringement claim due to limitations in the DMCA. A good read!"

  1. Sad news... Saddam Hussein dead at 65 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio: the body of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was found dead in the rubble of a Bagdad bunker this morning, shot dead by several 2000 pound bombs. No further details were available. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will mourn the death of yet another victim of America's bood-for-oil policy. Even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his ground-breaking achievements in the fields of chemical warfare, state-sponsored genocide, and innovative methods of torture and execution. Beloved by anti-war leftist activists, Kuro5hin readers, and homicidal megalomaniacs everywhere, he will be missed. Truly a peacenik icon.

      No, the great leader still lives. This is another zionist conspiracy. There are no Americans in Baghdad. What? No, those were our tanks rolling by just now. Yes, our troops speak English.

    I recently came across a site called Torrentse.cx. It is for sharing BitTorrent .torrent file links.

    Can anyone tell me if this is a legitimate site?
