Nopeuser added image You are fine if you do a search there.
My stepmom works for the site developers there,
and they get thier list from the courts.

NOTE: because of that, the list is not complete, and the RIAA is always adding/updating who they are looking for.

Small timers that just leech, or used to just leech, (just download), are not a target of the RIAA.

The major, and minor targets are those with larger than normal bandwidth usage stats AND who allow access to thier shared music directories with a file count of 1000 mp3's or more tagged as such.

For example, and to clear up the confusion, the 12 year old girl that was on the list had a shared directory with over 2 gigs of files, and left it on all the time, so she was an easy target.

Those of us who do not have static IP's AND who restart once in a while, AND who don't share any folders are at no risk as far as they are conserneduser added image
