If it is good enough for the RIAA then it is good enough for MPAA

Stop sharing movies and music (or just use public wireless access points to do it). The MPAA is now pressuring ISP's to give up the names of movie traders and will be filinganti-piracy lawsuits - and it looks like Charter subscribers are mentioned specifically. And it doesn't appear that if you share just a few movies you'll slip by unnoticed. The Washington Post reports that, John Malcolm, director of the MPAA, has said "some of the targets are people who downloaded and traded just one movie..."

Yes, making available for free what someone else worked to produce is and should be illegal; but I'm also struck by the juxtaposition of anti-piracy lawsuits to the discussion I heard on Morning Edition today. Steve Inskeep spoke with the author of "Will In the World" and it was mentioned how in 16th Century England all plays and printed material had to be checked by government censors before the material was released to the public.
