FSF steps into RIAA vs The People war

“In one of RIAA’s high profile cases the Free Software Foundation backed defendant Joel Tenenbaum, much to the dislike of the music industry lobby. John Sullivan, Operations Manager at the FSF explains in a guest post why they think these cases impact not just music, but also free software and its technology.” So says Ernesto in TorrentFreak , prefacing Sullivan’s article. “We don’t make (much) music here at the Free Software Foundation , so it’s natural for people to wonder why the FSF has been standing up for individuals targeted by lawsuits launched by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA),” says Sullivan.
