With apologies to modeps and others calling for a ban on "gmail"

I asked myself, "what the heck would you do with that large of email space... in 5 years I haven't filled a regular yahoo account" Then I thought... to send mp3's and movies.... Hmmmmm

Gmail is scanned.... could the RIAA and/or MPAA be helping to support in return for gathering proof of illegal file trading?

Just a thought...
Maybe I'm just a conspiracy nut or something... But, they're watching that supr site (from what I hear)... why not this?

they're "watching" suprnova because it's EASY and PUBLIC, due to the way that bittorrent works. When you start downloading from a torrent, your IP gets broadcasted to everybody else, basically screaming "hey look at me, I'm pirating this material too!".

They (RIAA/MPAA) would never ever ever monitor email/gmail/whatever.
