RIAA Sues Backbone ISPs to Censor Website

[MadRat]

My ISP blocks Listen4ever.com I guess because it won't come up. Anyone have the IP addy?

It is about time!! Also someone needs to bar all internet sites that contain any profane words especially those forums that allow pix of scantly clad women. Also any site that sells or condones any modification to auto engines that are not legal in some states. Golly Gee it is about time they clean up the internet. I also would condone a phycoloigical exam on anyone wanting a internet access for their home. Maybe even a background check to make sure that the person getting the access to the internet is acceptable.

I am afraid to sign this

Can anyon even ping that website? Perhaps they've already succeeded in getting it blocked at the border?

If a group were to Attack the RIAA Headquarters would it still be considered a terrorist attack or an attempt to preserve freedom? Lawyers and the RIAA, is there a more perfect match? What's the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead RIAA Exec in the road? There's skid marks before the dead Skunk. I know that's an old joke but I think it's very applicable.

Madrat it won't come up for me either when I put in the URL. Ameritech DSL.

nslookup through my university shows:

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: listen4ever.com
Address: 210.192.97.8

I went to it but got a "Advanced Underconstruction" page w/ a lot of broken images...

They're rather pretty actually.

Well.... they DO give out those pretty gold and platinum records when an artist sells enough copies of their CD's. They look neat hanging on the wall of your local Hard Rock cafe. That's about the only good idea that EVER came out of the RIAA. Everything else is just a bunch of protectionist, anti-consumer BS.

The RIAA is just pissing me off more and more lately.
