However, this type of action might not be necessary at all. Some of the users on this list think RIAA's recent actions are nothing more than empty threats. Why doesn't NANOG make a few of its own? A "polite" letter from a NANOG representative should do the trick. -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog () merit edu [mailto:owner-nanog () merit edu]On Behalf Of J.A.

So far its all idle threats, we have no idea where they plan to launch their scans or hacking attempts from, or even if they have any clue how to hack anything. I highly doubt they'll be attaching riaa.com to it either.
The blocking of any an all directly RIAA sites, feeds, etc, would produce an economic reaction. Cut off their sales websites, their basic connectivity (how much money do you think it would cost them to go back to snail mail today?), their [few] subscription sites. Let the money do the work.
