The only things that are relevant are - whether your high-speed line was used to serve files, and what was the total expense account of the RIAA lawyers to get to your town?The rest, doesn't matter. They don't have to find the files - the presumption if they don't was that you erased the files. What you need to do is set up a self-contained WiFi server with UPS and rotate it from hotspot to hotspot. I'm surprised there's not more of this sort of "drive-by sharing".
I tought the concept was pretty original, so points for that - but if you really must keep something hidden/secret, why not just use TrueCrypt ( <a class="user" href="http://www.truecrypt.org/">http://www.truecrypt.org/</a> ) ?You can create encrypted virtual volumes or encrypt physical drives. It even allows you to create hidden volumes inside other hidden volumes, making them practically impossible to find.Truecrypt is (free) open-source, available for Windows and Linux. It also comes translated to various languages.
I don't know about screwing with the RIAA but it looks like it would be a great backup device for a server. And another thing no one is TOTALLY immune from the RIAA.

That's brilliant if you ask me. If I had the time and resources, I'd attempt to make that. It's quite nice and serves its purpose quite well lol.

It would be cooler if they used powerline networking. That way, It just has to plug in.
