Music publishing companies notched another court victory against a broadband provider that refused to terminate the accounts of Internet users accused of piracy. In a ruling on Wednesday, the conservative-leaning US Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit sided with the big three record labels against Grande Communications, a subsidiary of Astound Broadband.
The appeals court ordered a new trial on damages because it said the $46.8 million award was too high, but affirmed the lower court’s finding that Grande is liable for contributory copyright infringement.
The Fifth Circuit is fascist. They don’t give a fuck what you accuse them of, cause they have no shame.
Oh. It’s not shame. It’s annoying them with loss of internet privileges.
They’ll care because it inconveniences them while sending each other their pedo-porn stash.
