title: RIAA/MPAA Blowback
---

<p><a href='http://www.techfocus.org/'>TechFocus</a> 
 has decided that
the <acronym title='Recording Industry Association of
America'>RIAA</acronym> and
<acronym title='Motion Picture Association'>MPAA</acronym> violated
their <acronym title='Terms of Service'>TOS</acronym> and they're also
unhappy with the RIAA/MPAA mass <acronym title='Peer to
Peer'>P2P</acronym> litigation (courtesy of friend, the <acronym
title='Digital Millenium Copyright Act'>DMCA</acronym>).  As a result,
TechFocus has <a
href='http://techfocus.org/comments.php?catid=17&id=3662'>banned the
RIAA and MPAA</a>.
