[ga] ICANN's IPC member the MPAA, Shuts Down Town's Municipal WiFi Over 1 Download

["Jeffrey A. Williams" <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  Any reasonable person and/or Internt users has to ask:
What the devil is up with this nonsense?!  Is this a preview
of comming attractions or rather abuses by the MPAA?  Doesn't
ICANN or the IPC have some control or influence with this
IPC member and exercise same to behave in a rational manner?
Apperently not.

See:http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=09/11/12/2025201

"The MPAA has successfully

shut down an entire town's municipal WiFi because a single user was
found to be downloading a copyrighted movie. Rather than being
embarrassed by this gross example of collective punishment (a practice
outlawed in the Geneva conventions) against Coshocton, OH, the MPAA's
spokeslizard took the opportunity to cry poor (even though the studios
are bringing in record box-office and aftermarket receipts)."
