I agree with the Citizen comment. Having fallen victim to one of these letters just a few minutes ago, I think I will now act upon the fact that I am a "Citizen" of the United States ...
The MPAA sent a letter to my ISP a few months ago and my ISP sent a letter to me stating that I had better stop sharing copyrighted materials. I ignored the letter from the ISP because I had not to my knowledge been sharing copyrighted materials. Today my ISP calls and says they received another letter from the MPAA. Since this is the second letter within a year they have now shut my service off. What did this accomplish?
As soon as I get home I will cancel my ISP service. I will no longer purchase movies for home viewing, and I will no longer go to a theater to watch movies. I will definitely adjust my taxes so that the government gets as little as possible.
Did this hurt me? Not really, it actually may make me a little more active. Did it hurt the MPAA, most likely not. Did it help the MPAA/ISP/Government? I can't see how, as now they just turned me into a pissed off "Citizen"!
