That's Bullshit. Why should they have the right to invade in a persons privacy? and why should they not be held accountable for the damage of a persons computer or network? These people are greedy. IF they didn't make things so damn expensive I doubt people would bootleg things. Why Would someone pay $10.00 to sit in a movie theater for two hours or buy a CD for $15.98 when it costs little over a dollar per CD? You know its funny when Sony complains about their music being downloaded and traded on the Internet and P2P programs when they make CD burners. Ever see an ad for a Sony Vio? IM sure you've seen "Create your own music CD's" in their ad and not only their ad but compaq,HP,Dell and Gateway.
Why the double standard? Competition? If you really want to keep your companies secure, go after the people who supply the tools to create BOOTLEG CDs. you go after them you cut the rest of the Internet world off. its that simple.
