Music publishing companies notched another court victory against a broadband provider that refused to terminate the accounts of Internet users accused of piracy. In a ruling on Wednesday, the conservative-leaning US Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit sided with the big three record labels against Grande Communications, a subsidiary of Astound Broadband.
The appeals court ordered a new trial on damages because it said the $46.8 million award was too high, but affirmed the lower court’s finding that Grande is liable for contributory copyright infringement.
DMCA the fuck out of every media company.
Accuse them of piracy.
Is it true? Who gives a fuck.
Terminate their accounts.

Exactly my thoughts! Who’s the ISP for the RIAA?
Comcast.
No, you see courts only apply this precedent when it can hurt poor people.
Well… they do hang out in the public torrents of movies, games, shows, etc.
That’s how they get IP addresses and have their bots send DMCA notices.
