RIAA sues more people. Crazy!
As always, I bring you the news of more RIAA lawsuits via Edupage, a publication of Educause:
The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) this week announced another 493 lawsuits against individuals for trading copyrighted files, bringing the total number of such suits to nearly 3,000. The RIAA continues to file so-called “John Doe” lawsuits against individuals whose identities it can then obtain from Internet service providers. The RIAA has settled more than 400 lawsuits with individuals, but the group also announced that it has filed 24 suits against people whose identities it has discovered through John Doe suits. According to the RIAA, the 24 who were sued by name declined to settle out of court.

In other news, there’s this interesting game called the Anti-Bush Online Videogame. Enjoy! (Instructions: click Play, and then click through a bunch of screens. Oh, caveat, it’s dirty.) [via mefi]
