MPAA University 'Toolkit' Raises Privacy Concerns http://blog.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2007/11/mpaa_university_toolkit_opens_1.html
"What we found was that depending on how a university's network is set up, installing and using the MPAA tool in its default configuration could expose to the entire Internet all of the traffic flowing across the school's network. " Comment by Fred von Lohmann, EFF: "Remarkably shoddy work by the MPAA folks. Reminds me of the rootkit debacle, where smart people hire clueless contractors. It also appears that distribution of the toolkit violates the GPL, and thus constitutes copyright infringement. I've notified the appropriate GPL police already."
