I feel the song writers do have a right to gripe, but, What I'm hearing about these suits is more disturbing than copy infringement. From What I understand,(could be wrong), They are hacking into my machine, or the Kazza server, and looking into the files I have to share with others. If they find files that belong to them, they contact the ISP with my IP address to see who I am. The only problem is they BROKE INTO MY MACHINE FIRST! I can't go next door and kick it in to search for drugs under your bed, then find them and turn you in. It's called probable cause or illegal search and seizure. You might have the drugs, but you can't go to court with the evidence you illegaly obtained. I still belive I have the right(not necesarilly the ability) to keep you out of my machine unless you are invited.
I guess if you have Kazza, you are allowing anyone to look at your machine willingly. If you can look into 1 folder, why not look at all?
What I don't understand is why do so many people support Kazza, considering all the spyware and hacks that are installed with it.
Yes there is Kazza-lite, but still, I personally won't support any group that states in it's EULA that they have the right to take over my computer.
