RIAA sues yet another 493 P2P users

Written by Petteri Pyyny @ 24 May 2004 4:03 User comments (6)

Recording Industry Association of America continues its holy war against the P2P users and has sued yet another 493 P2P network users in the United States.

Latest lawsuit pile puts the total figure of sued individuals close to 3,000 since September, 2003. RIAA has been forced to sue the individual as "John Does" since it lost its court case and couldn't threaten ISPs to hand out personal details of their users without sueing them first.

Organization also said that it has filed 24 lawsuits where it knows the personality of the file-sharer and said that all of those personally named have denied to settle their cases out of court.

	Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing. 1 user comment
	Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
