RIAA - Being Sued for Racketeering is a Scandal

By DrewWilson

ADVERTISEMENTS

Earlier this month, ZeroPaid reported on the racketeering lawsuit amendment. It seems as though the Recording Industry Association of America wasn't too happy with the lawsuit and has responded to the claims. For a quick recap, the lawsuit against the RIAA is for alleged racketeering. The activities the RIAA is being accused of include hiring an unlicensed investigator and forcing people to settle whether guilty or not based on flimsy evidence. While there is some doubt on whether or not this lawsuit would survive on the part of some, it seems as though there are those willing to fight the RIAA anyway.
