Dear EFF Supporter: This is astounding - in the first 24 hours, over 6,000 people have signed our petition to stop the Recording Industry Association of America's (RIAA) nationwide rampage against average Americans. Rather than working to create a rational, legal means by which its customers can take advantage of file-sharing technology and pay a fair price for the music they love, it has chosen to sue people like Brianna LaHara, a 12 year-old girl living in New York City public housing. Take a stand against the RIAA's tactics by signing our petition: http://www.eff.org/share/petition/ Brianna, and hundreds of other music fans like her, are being forced to pay thousands of dollars they do not have to settle RIAA-member lawsuits -- supporting a business model that is anything but rational. This crusade is generating thousands of subpoenas and hundreds of lawsuits, but not a single penny for the artists that the RIAA claims to protect. Copyright law shouldn't make criminals out of 60 million Americans, and it's time for a change. Congress is going to hold hearings; we need your help to make sure that the public's voice is heard. Tell Congress that it's time to stop the madness: http://www.eff.org/share/petition/ We'll deliver the petition to Congress once we've hit 10,000 signatures. This is a grassroots campaign - please take the time to tell your friends and family about this issue. Thanks for support!

Yep I should have noted that for those of us still stuck. anyway those that can speak up should, IMHO, and it may not be that he eff feels that way, but the folks they are talking to have pretty much made it clear they don't want to hear anything, much less those who can not influence their voting block.
