Default The old people are getting smart.

My 61 year old mother was just telling me about how she started downloading "torrence" so she can get albums and movies without paying. I told her that was illegal and she told me "I'm 61, no one would believe it was me anyway!"



Anybody else have a story like this?

The groups that work to protect copyrighted material in the US (RIAA/MPAA) have in fact sued grandmothers before. In fact they've sued deceased grandmothers! Corporations don't give a crap who you are, they will sue.

As a member of BMI, I say, "Sue their pants off."

Your Moms can just say, "Hey I'm no criminal, but I know someone who is."
