RIAA And Other Groups Sued For Criminal Attacks Against Filesharers

[GhostShip]

This is always good news folks those Who have attacked and defrauded filesharers will finally be brough to justice if this succeeds.

In cases which should by rights have been initiated by the Bush government on behalf of innocent families across America, falsely attacked by Warner Music, EMI, Vivendi Universal and Sony BMG, RIAA victims Tanya Andersen and Michelle Santangelo are determined to make the Big 4, as well as companies involved in the sue ‘em all morass, pay, literally and figuratively, for the distress they’ve caused and are still causing.

In a request for class action status which, if and when successful, will ultimately include every one of the 30,000 or so RIAA victims, Andersen and her lawyer, are looking to recover compensation for the, “significant damages caused by the Defendants” as well as punitive damages, statutory penalties, litigation fees and expenses and equitable relief.

Her amended complaint is impressive. She’s citing negligence, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, federal and state RICO, abuse of process, malicious prosecution, intentional infliction of emotional distress, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, trespass, invasion of privacy, libel and slander, deceptive business practices, misuse of copyright law, and civil conspiracy.

On the wrong end of the class action are

The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America)
MediaSentry and its owner, SafeNet
The Settlement Support Center, a Washington company operating as the debt collection arm for the defendants’ “coordinated enterprise to pursue a scheme of threatening and intimidating litigation”
Atlantic Recording Corporation, Priority Records, Capitol Records, UMG Recordings, and BMG Music who filed Atlantic Recording Corp., et al v. Andersen, No. CV 05-933 AS (D Or) action against Andersen

Lets hope those responsible for the mass abuse of filesharers are also hounded and have their lives turned upside-down by the same thugs they used to harrass those on the end of this extortion racket. :twisted:

At last, may you know, an im damn sure you read here music industry leech's. Your time of second guessing is coming to an end, Im going to enjoy watching you try and worm your way out of this and will love this case being brought up in every court in the world letting everyone off when you finally have to admit the only proof you have is you seen the ip, not what it was doing or where it was going and that isnt tangable enough proof to pin anything on anyone.
