Are we looking at the first true Internet war?Well, if it is a war, then the recording industry lost it before the first shot was fired. This type of programming would be more of a 'scorched earth' type of battle. 'We can't win, so we're going to screw everyone over.'
I doubt that any companies would be stupid enough to go through with this type of action. First rule of a lawsuit- never sue poor people. That's why record companies seek little legal retribution-college students sharing music aren't very wealthy. On the other hand, a large corporation distributing invasive and malicious programming is a juicy target. I can see the lawyers starting to circle like buzzards on a kill.
