EFF Statement on Court Order Requiring Verizon to Identify Users Pending
Further Rulings
"RIAA's claim that it has an emergency need to violate the privacy of the
two Verizon users is weak, especially since one of those users has already
filed a declaration stating that he has disabled KaZaA entirely," said EFF
Legal Director Cindy Cohn. "Once again, RIAA has shown that it is willing to
sacrifice normal procedures and processes that protect Americans' privacy
and constitutional rights to protect its business model. The over 60 million
KaZaA users (more people than voted for our President) are sending a clear
signal that the industry is failing to meet their needs."
