Interesting to see the reactions here; how they differ from other lawsuits that pit "authors" and "artists" against tech companies.
This isn't authors/artists vs tech companies, this is rights holders vs consumers. Rights holders are trying to be able to pressure ISPs to be able to punish consumers for alleged infringements.
Nice try. But this is explicitly the "Authors' Guild" and others.
Huh, it's almost like each issue has nuance.
