In addition, faculty (and graduate students) often request interlibrary loan copies of articles, which now arrive via pdf and are stored on their (my) computers. This is not only legal, it's part of our core business (doing research, that is). You would be drowning in false positives. Geoff (wearing my Linguist, rather than my IT Policy hat) Geoffrey S.

It is also legal to buy content from ITunes and other legitimate vendors and store it. DMCA violations are based on offering content, not storing it.

Copy Sense only works for the peer-to-peer transfers and, perhaps, FTP and other "real-time" transfers. To the best of my knowledge it will not look at stored material. --Randy Charles R.
