Matthew138's possible last post.

Well it looks like the internet nazis have found their newest target: Me.

I got a letter in the mail yesterday from Comcast warning me that I have infringed "The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998" by downloading some Flash software off of Kazaa lite. I'm not sure what the deal is, or what is going to happen; but this is ridiculous. What the **** gives them the right to spy on my computer and moniter what I download in the first place? Those sons of bitches. Well if I disappear from the boards any time soon, you'll know I got kicked off my Comcast server. I'm too tired and pissed off to write anymore.

Son of a bitch.

I hope this isn't your last post dude...

If everything works out, Try AT&T or SBC Global Internet. both of them refuse to give any info out to anyone regarding K-Lite downloads/Usenet Downloads etc.

Is this the RIAA again? Dang I hate those morons, they are just a bunch of patheic bullies. I still get over the fact that they sued a 12 year old. Sick, sick, sick jerks.

I live in the UK, and as far as I know we can't get in trouble *yet* but I removed Kazaa from my comp when I first heard about the guys. I still have WinMX though but I'm hopefully okay...<looks nervous>

Also, if these dudes ar egonna sue anybody shouldn't it be the creators of Kazaa rather than the users? It would make far more sense to me if they did that.

...you people I'm surprised at how many of you will miss me if I do indeed vanish from the board. But it looks like I probably won't get kicked off... for now.

If they used Kazaa Lite to access the Kazaa network, they violated Kazaa's end user agreement or something like that, meaning they were bad too.
