RIAA Quashed

FsG writes "According to an Electronic Frontier Foundation Media Release, a Massachusetts district court has ordered that the RIAA subpoenas sent to MIT and Boston College be rejected. This ruling came in response to an RIAA request, filed earlier today, asking that MIT and Boston College be ordered to comply with subpoenas sent to them a month ago. 'We urge other colleges and Internet service providers to take similar steps to protect their users' privacy,' said EFF Legal Director Cindy Cohn." Following up on this story. Forcing the RIAA to have their subpoenas issued from the local court rather than Washington a) is legally correct and b) makes it harder (more expensive) for them to issue mass quantities.

Fuck. You nerds just don't get it. You don't have a *RIGHT* to music. You don't have a *RIGHT* to go to the fucking movies. There are people starving in Africa and this dickless wonder here is complaining that the price of popcorn is too high. Try eating some vegetables you grew in your garden then fatty.
