This backfireing big time
Just in Mall on the week and bunch of teens, 20 in total I estimate, were talking about these law suits. Most of them didn't swap many files but they are doing more now just to spite the man.

So file go after 1 fileswapper and 3 more jump in to take there place just as act of defiance.

We're talking TEENs here. How many adults remember thier teen year. When you were told not to do something that was the same as daring a teen to do it and they did do it. For example "Don't drugs" and look at how many teens are smoking POT and taking E. "Not Drinking till 18-21" and look at all the teens getting loaded. "Don't smoke" look at all the teens smoking.

You don't wield authority like a club to get teens to stop doing something. You get teens to think that fileswappin is such a bad thing images wise. You know like only losers use P2P. Good luck in creating that image though, missed the boats 4 years ago for that.
