This would be such a tremendous blow to the MPAA & RIAA and would guarantee courts would have to take all the information they submit in "good faith." to be highly questioned as the MPAA bribed a former employee of a company to steal information to aid their lawsuit against them.
Atleast I feel it should be very hard if not impossible for a body to be given any legal faith after being found guilty of bribery of corporate espionage. Personally I think TorrentSpy should seek criminal charges also, i feel they would have very strong grounds to seek charges including: Illegal access to their servers and similar hacking charges, Criminal conspiracy, enticing an individual to commit illegal crimes, theft etc etc. - alexp2ad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Heh, this will be a very interesting one to watch...
