OT (slightly), but a statement in the News.com[1] story is incorrect. It states that "In August, the U.S. Department of Justice made arrests in five states on charges of criminal copyright infringement in an action dubbed Operation Digital Gridlock..." (middle of 4th paragraph).
No arrests were made in those 5 states. In fact, no charges had even been filed yet. (The story linked[2] from the text "arrests in five states" even states this fact.) The linked story is also full of blatant lies and misconstrued "facts", not to mention incomplete. (A brief comment I made isn't included, plus a multitude of other actual facts. Search for other AP articles of the same story to see the missing information.) But that's a whole different fight. As most know, the media can't be trusted to get the story correct most of the time. Just a FYI or "for the record" for those who keep track. I'm writing the author about this, hoping for a correction. No, I'm not holding my breath. Fight for your rights.
