Torrent entrapment by the MPAA

Good ol' Big Media is at it again! In their never ending quest to put art lovers in a perpetual state of fear, the MPAA decided it would be a good idea to upload fake torrents in order to harvest torrent users' IP addresses. Who knows what nefarious ends the MPAA will use this information for... do I smell another round of illegitimate, bullying lawsuits? It's unfortunate that the DMCA has given Big Media license to crawl the Internet acting like police. The only difference between the real cops and these pseudo cops is the real cops can't make as much money from extortion.
