No. But apparently there's a similar organization in Britain that could.

:ninja:

same goes for Australia RIAA can't do shit all but the AIAA can but they don't do anything

[harrycary]

Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?

While the RIAA may not do anything, there is nothing stopping individual record labels from suing users in the UK. Afterall, there are 5 multinational corporations that distribute 70-80% of the music out there. They have copyrights on it all. Pick up a CD at a local store. Does it have the small "c" within a circle? There you go.

Don't think for a minute that you aren't at risk like us in the US.

[J'Pol]

Of course they can.

It's a civil action, not a criminal one. They don't need any power to do it.

Can a citizen of the USA sue a british newspaper. Of course they can. They just instruct lawyers in the UK to do it thro' our courts.

More important question is will they.
