Why exactly did that get downvoted? Is the No Electronic Theft Act that criminalized some non-commercial re-distribution not part of the public record? Is the RIAAs attempt to get the justice department pursue file-sharers under the No Electronic Theft Act not a published fact? Did the "Pirate Act" not seek to criminalize a broader group of non-commercial infringement? Did the College Opportunity and Affordability Act of 2007 not shift the burden of policing copyright from the copyright holder to colleges and universities under threat of withholding federal financial assistance for non-compliance? Do the leaked ACTA documents not show yet-another attempted expansion for treating file-sharing as a criminal act? Is the RIAAs legal strategy against peer-to-peer users not commonly known? It's not like I'm spinning conspiracy theories here. There are stacks of information in the public record about the content industry's push to remove the distinctions between commercial and non-commercial and civil and criminal infringement.
