All the laws are useless
Simply because they aren't address the problem.

The RIAA wants to maintain control over what we can hear. AKA make it harder to hear music they don't want us to hear.

So all these anti-piracy laws are being looked into to fight copyright infringement. But every law that does that in balance fair way doesn't solve the RIAA's problem.

Now the RIAA isn't going to say BAN P2P because the public might hear music that we don't control because they would get laughed and and told to go home. So they invent and encourage piracy on P2P going as far to put the music out there themselve to show how widespread the abuse and that P2P should be banned for that reason.

So there is the problem. More stupid useless law targeted at fix problem that does not exist in an effort to enforce a level of control that ammount to little more than corporate censorship.

This is all so stupid! They can fight it all they want and in the end they will lose.
