Also an hour later, I got sued by the RIAA...
if anyone here is a lawyer, please feel free to give legal counsel, if not, feel free to dish out whatever you want anyway.
here's the email in my inbox if anyone wants to laugh at my misfortune:
i have to give it to them though, it really took them awhile to sue me. the event they are specifically referring to happened in january.Northwestern University received the attached correspondence, entitled Notification of Copyright
Infringement Claims, from counsel for the Recording Industry Association of America ("RIAA") today.
The IP address specified in the RIAA's letter is associated with your NetID.
While Northwestern is not providing -- and cannot provide -- legal advice to you concerning this
matter, we are forwarding the RIAA's letter to you immediately to provide you as much time to
respond as possible. Please review the letter carefully; as it indicates, you may wish to consult
with an attorney who can advise you on your rights and responsibilities in connection with the
RIAA's claims.
