Polish University raided for P2P file sharing


The RIAA and the MPAA have been targeting Universities lately, in an effort to stop students from downloading their product. Most of the time it would end with a law suit against some kid for downloading 'My Hump'.

But students at a University in Poland took it to a new level.

Polish police officers conducted a raid on the campus of the 18,500-student Koszalin University of Technology. The officers recovered one main PC running the DC++ hub software, 10 laptops and 60 hard drives. A total of 35,000GB (Wow, that's getting it done) of movies, music and software. The administrators were arrested as you might imagine.

The Polish music industry doesn't go after the casual music sharer, instead they go after main hub administrators and major uploaders.

You here that RIAA and MPAA!!! Stop going after and suing grandma's, college kids, and Joe average.
