the public information the RIAA is using is only available via the p2p networks themselves right? so what if the developers of the p2p neteworks wrote a clause into the licensing agreement forbidding the use of such information gathering under penalty of (ideally death but) severe monetary damages? could kazaa, grokster, etc. write in such a clause? then the RIAA's use of such information would also fall prey to legal attack.
it would als be neat if the information collected somehow violated rights as the RIAA is doing the collectiing rather than a law enforcement agency? maybe some conflict of interest provision (doubtful) or some due process provision?
