PCWorld.com - Users Warned About Anti-Piracy Campaign

PCWorld.com - Users Warned About Anti-Piracy Campaign: "U.S. privacy group the Electronic Frontier Foundation is warning individuals not to admit to illegally trading copyright music online, even if the music industry offers a reprieve from its anti-piracy campaign, saying that users could still be subject to legal action.

"Stepping into the spotlight to admit your guilt is probably not a sensible course for most people sharing music files online, especially since the RIAA doesn't control many potential sources of lawsuits," EFF Staff Attorney Wendy Seltzer said in the statement."

This is like sticking your head over the sandbags in a pitched gun battle. So keep everything on the DL for a bit longer, although I've violated this principle many times over that's mainly because I can probably find some resources to fight with.
