Ask Slashdot: Who Has Been Sued By the RIAA?

Posted by samzenpus on from the naughty-list dept.

First time accepted submitter blackfrancis75 writes "We keep hearing different figures quoting the thousands of people who've been sued by RIAA for illegally downloading online music, but I don't know anyone personally to whom it's happened. In fact it seems no-one I know knows anyone to whom it happened. Do you know anyone who was sued for 'piracy', or were you sued yourself? What was your experience?"

    I called the police when I was trying to download some porn and accidentally ended up with some pirated songs instead. It was Justin Bieber and Katy Perry, so they didn't punish me.

    for a woman presumably born while Thomas Jefferson was president, her embrace of digital media is admirable.
