When the RIAA came looking for names, did you blindly cave in to them

As a business owner, I expect my privacy to be protected. Instead of blindly
accepting a piece of paper, maybe you should consider what the law actually is
and do your best to make sure that it is, in fact, legal.

Exactly the reason Sihope would never get my business. Companies and 
individuals alike need to be aware of their rights, and make sure they're
being protected. Not throw them away at the drop of a hat.
