MPAA Resorts to Entrapment
A man has been charged with pirating a screener DVD of Walk the Line after the Motion Picture Association of America set up a special server for him to upload it. They caught wind of his intentions after he discussed it in a chat room. The MPAA then set up a fake web site for movie downloads to entrap him. Pretty slimy move. I wonder how much money — coming from the salaries of actors and crew, of course — was used to fund this scheme.
