SBC Refuses To Name File-Sharing Users
securitas writes "The New York Times reports that Internet provider SBC Communications has refused to identify computer users accused by the RIAA of file-sharing copyrighted material. SBC is the largest high-speed DSL provider with over 3 million subscribers. It continues to refuse a response to the 300 subpoenas served by the RIAA despite a ruling against Verizon earlier this year. 'We are going to challenge every single one of these that they file until we are told that our position is wrong as a matter of law,' said James D. Ellis, general counsel for SBC. He continues, '...We've got a long heritage in which we have always taken a harsh and hard rule on protecting the privacy of our customers' information.' Mirrors in Tuscaloosa and Lakeland."

Pure evil vs. pure evil. I'm not sure who to root for. Maybe we'll all get lucky and they'll bankrupt each other with skyrocketing legal fees.
I think SBC is trying to cover their own ass.
I use SBC and so far I have not received any information regarding not downloading mp3s and other facts. I only receive my monthly bill. I would guess a customer can blame SBC for not taking some responsibility of informing them regarding this. As ludicrous as that sounds it can happen.
