| This rampant copyright infringement... This rampant copyright infringement needs to stop. People need to realize that when you download the movie or song that you are taking money away from those who made that movie or song.
But... like others here, I have to agree that "guilt by IP" is bullshit. There could be any number of reasons why someone could end up getting hit for things like this. Like the article said, it could be a guest that is using your WiFi, or God forbid your machine got infected with something and your machine was used as a proxy of some sort.
Either way, this rampant copyright infringement needs to stop but "guilt by IP" is bullshit and these rapid-fire lawsuits that are targeting users also needs to stop. It's nothing but an abuse of the court system.

Dang it; I had no idea I get get money by infringing copyrights. Show me how!
Infringers aren't "taking" any money, though, by infringing, they are denying the owner of the IP income derived from the IP.
