Radley Balko tells us about yet another RIAA masterstroke:
[The] RIAA is suing a young transplant patient in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Nineteen-year-old Ciara Sauro has pancreatitis and because she needs an islet cell transplant, she’s hospitalized every week, a situation resulting in a huge accumulation of medical bills.
Now, “Because she didn’t defend herself against a copyright lawsuit, a federal judge in Pittsburgh ruled she’s a music pirate, and that could cost the Sauros almost $8,000 in fines,” says Pittsburg news channel WTAE.com.
As far as I can see, there are only two ways this trend can end:
- The RIAA gets permission to legally execute music pirates on sight.
- The rest of us get permission to legally exeucte RIAA executives on sight.
Write your congresscritters now, to make sure that vote goes the right way.
